If Ryan Finan could do anything differently this season, he'd add another month of June to the calendar. For the second time in two years, Finan was chosen as the Orioles' minor league Player of the Month for June. A corner infielder at Single-A Frederick, he batted .343 with 10 RBIs and a .930 on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS). "Maybe the weather starts to get hot," he said. "I don't really like playing in cold weather. I'd rather sweat when I play. But I don't know. Maybe after 100, 150 at-bats, that's when I start to get going.

Quote: "Everyone was on me for staying on 99 for a while. They were wondering if I would ever get it." -- Derek Jeter, whose double yesterday gave him 100 RBIs, just the second Yankees shortstop in history with 100 or more RBIs.It's a fact: The Rangers are the seventh team in major-league history to have six players with at least 20 homers.Who's hot: The White Sox's Greg Norton is hitting .414 (29-for-70) with eight doubles, three home runs and 14 RBIs in his past 20 games.Who's not: The Twins' LaTroy Hawkins, who has lost seven of his past nine decisions, gave up five runs -- four earned -- and five hits in one-plus innings of a 13-4 loss to the White Sox on Saturday night.

As the defending regular-season champion and last season's league tournament runner-up, St. Mary's has taken for granted just one of its Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Associated B Conference rivals this spring.Since an 11-0 loss at the hands of Boys' Latin earlier this season, St. Mary's has been all business. The visiting Saints (12-1, 8-1 league) were so again yesterday, routing league rival Mount Carmel, 14-0, at Martindale Park."The one time we didn't come ready to play, we got blown out pretty good," said catcher Mike Mullen, referring to the shutout defeat to Boys' Latin.

Orioles right fielder Nick Markakis is adamant that he has had much tougher stretches in the major leagues, regardless of what the numbers suggest. Markakis went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 9-3 loss to the Boston Red Sox and finished the second-to-last homestand of the season 2-for-26 with just one RBI, two walks and six strikeouts. "I'm in a funk right now," said Markakis, whose average dropped to .293. "I think my timing is off a little bit and I'm missing a few pitches. It's baseball. I just got to get myself out of it and finish up strong.

New York continues to look like the team to beat in the American League. The Yankees have the best overall record in the majors, a major league-best 31-11 mark since the All-Star break and are a season-high 34 games over .500. They have a league-high six players with at least 20 homers, including first baseman Mark Teixeira (Mount St. Joseph), who has a team-high 32 homers and 101 RBIs and has emerged as one of the leading candidates for the AL Most Valuable Player award. The six players reaching the 20-homer plateau ties a franchise record and is one shy of a major league record shared by three teams, including the 1996 Orioles.

Boston is just 1-5 since the All-Star break and has lost five straight games, including a three-game sweep at the hands of the Texas Rangers. After leading the American League East for much of the first half, the Red Sox are now two games behind the surging New York Yankees. Seeking to jump-start the offense, Boston acquired first baseman Adam LaRoche on Wednesday. It would help if outfielder J.D. Drew broke out of an extended slump. He's hitless in his past at-bats, his average dropping to .233.

He's 6-for-13 with two homers and four RBIs in his past three games. All-Star third baseman David Wright has gone 22-for-38 (.579) with seven doubles, one homer and six RBI in his past 10 games.

The Twins have been up and down this year, but they're certainly glad to have Joe Mauer back.

Michael Cuddyer is also starting to heat up with two hits in three straight games heading into Tuesday.
