Dean Cain makes shock claim about sexual harassment he was subjected to during Superman stint
Dean Cain on Tuesday said that he past suffered sexual harassment from a show business executive that was so brazen, he could have been in line for a record-setting litigation had he pursued it. The 58-year-old actor chat with Variety on Tuesday in a wide-ranging discussion that touched on his experience playing the role of the Man of Steel on Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman from 1993-1997. 'I could have had the biggest sexual harassment lawsuit in Hollywood history,' said Cain, who appeared as the beloved character for 87 episodes over the four seasons it aired. The Mount Clemens, Michigan-born actor, who was raised in Southern California, revealed to the industry outlet that he 'never before told a reporter' about the harassment. Cain, who has also been seen on shows such as Las Vegas, Clubhouse and Beverly Hills, 90210, declined to name names or add any revealing details to the shocking revelation. 'There were always murmurs' some clandestine activity was behind the unlikely end of the hit superhero series, and numerous data points that indicate the decision to take the show off the air was done hastily, Variety reported. A cliffhanger in the storyline to conclude the show's fourth season was not resolved, Variety reported. Cain had already penned multiple scripts and planned to direct multiple episodes in a planned fifth season that never materialized. 'The harassment [against the actor] took its toll on his relationship at the time with' Gabrielle Reece, the outlet reported in reference to Cain's one-time romance with the stunning model-volleyball player. The principal cast of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman included Cain, Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane, K Callan as Martha Kent, and late actors Lane Smith and Eddie Jones as Perry White and Jonathan Kent, respectively. The show starring Cain, who has been critical of Tinseltown politics in recent years, had also racked up five Primetime Emmy nods during its run. They included, in 1994, nods for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Main Title Theme Music and Outstanding Individual Achievement in Directing in a Drama Serie. In 1995, the series was nominated for Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Drama Series and Outstanding Individual Achievement in Costuming; and in 1996 for Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Drama Series.

All-Star Jacob Wilson, an AL Rookie of the Year candidate, lands on IL with broken forearm
Two weeks after he was the American League's starting shortstop in the All-Star Game, Athletics rookie Jacob Wilson is on the injured list with a broken left forearm, putting a significant damper on his candidacy for AL Rookie of the Year. The 23-year-old was batting .312/.354/.439 with 10 home runs in 94 games this season, though he had only four hits in 38 at-bats since being hit in the left arm by a pitch on July 8. He last played on July 25th. The A's have recalled infielder Darell Hernaiz from Triple A to take Wilson's spot on the roster. Advertisement Wilson got off to a red-hot start this season and was batting .337 as late as July 4, but was batting only .191 over his last 30 games and had started to lose ground in the AL Rookie of the Year race to teammate Nick Kurtz, who won the AL's Player of the Week award each of the past two weeks and hit four home runs in a game last Friday. Kurtz, who didn't make his major-league debut until April 23, is now leading the A's in bWAR with 3.4 and is batting .308/.376/.676 with 23 home runs in 68 games. The No. 6 pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, Wilson has had little trouble hitting for average since turning pro, batting .299 in 122 major-league games dating back to last season and .401 in 79 minor-league games. He's had trouble staying on the field, however. In his major-league debut last season, Wilson strained a hamstring running the bases after collecting a hit in his first at-bat. He missed more than a month with that injury and has missed games this season with hamstring soreness. He also missed time earlier in the 2024 season with knee soreness while with Triple-A Las Vegas. His pro debut season in 2023 also ended three weeks early with lower-body soreness. Wilson's injury further thins the A's at shortstop. The team is already missing 2021 first-round pick Max Muncy, who landed on the IL with a broken hand last week. Muncy had been playing all over the infield with Wilson getting the bulk of the time at short, but he is a natural shortstop. Utility man Max Schuemann has played short in Wilson's place recently and figures to share time at the position with Hernaiz. Acquired from the Orioles for left-hander Cole Irvin before the 2023 season, Hernaiz made the A's roster out of spring training last year but struggled and hit only .192 in 120 at-bats. He was playing well for Las Vegas, batting .305/.383/.424 in 96 games.
