Jackson Holliday’s first taste of the big leagues was brief. The Orioles’ lauded youngster — ranked as MLB pipeline’s No. 1 prospect in baseball — was sent back down to Triple-A Norfolk amid a terrible start with the team. The Orioles called Holliday up to the major league roster on April 10, but he’s struggled through a nightmarish few weeks. He was slashing .059/.111/.059 with a paltry .170 OPS and -47 OPS+. He had just two hits in 34 at-bats, striking out 18 times with no homers and just one run batted in. Holliday recorded a -0.5 BWAR in the…

WASHINGTON — President Biden recalled Friday that “lovely women” mailed him “very salacious pictures” when he was a young and unmarried senator — and that he handed the images over to the Secret Service — in a bizarre interview with Howard Stern. “A lot of lovely women — but women would send very salacious pictures and I’d just give them to the Secret Service. I thought somebody would think I was —” the 81-year-old president said before trailing off. It’s unclear why the Secret Service, whose role is to protect the president and investigate counterfeiting and fraud, would have any…

Emma Stone has said she’s finally ready to be called by her real name after a Hollywood rule forced her to drop it. The two-time Oscar winner, 35, revealed that she prefers her birth name and has struggled to live with being known as Emma for years. In a chat alongside her The Curse costar Nathan Fielder, the actress admitted, “For some reason, I was like, ‘I can’t do it anymore. Just call me Emily.’” When asked by The Hollywood Reporter for a Wednesday, April 24, interview whether she’d correct a fan if they called her by her real name…

PHILADELPHIA – There was a moment toward the end Friday night. The 76ers already had Game 3 in hand, and the Knicks were trying to make them sweat, even if just a little bit. Jalen Brunson drove the lane, used one of his favorite herky-jerky moves, drew a foul. Joel Embiid disagreed with the call. He said something; it was hard to determine what, exactly. Brunson responded with a half-smile. Then he did an exaggerated on-the-way up fake – anyone could see he was mimicking Embiid’s signature move, even all the way up in the last row at Wells Fargo…

A simple blood test may be able to detect knee osteoarthritis in people who’ve yet to develop any symptoms — and up to eight years before an X-ray would be able to detect changes in their bones — scientists say.In a new study, researchers analyzed the blood of 200 white women who had no symptoms of osteoarthritis when their blood was first sampled and were deemed “low-risk” of developing it. Their risk level was based on traditional risk factors, such as having a history of knee injury or a prior knee surgery. They then analyzed the same people using the new…
