So closer Jim Johnson finally blew a save in the regular season . How long has it been? The last time he blew one Manny Machado and Nate McLouth weren't Orioles. You've got to go all the way  back to July 27, 2012 - not counting the one Game 3 of the ALDS - for a blown save by JJ. Here's a silver lining for you: Even when Johnson blows one, it's rarely ugly. He gave up four singles that were beat into the ground on Tuesday. It's not like they got a lot of lift off a guy who has made his living getting grounders.

Despite being the top seed in the Ivy League tournament, Cornell was stunned, 14-13, in overtime by No. 12 Princeton. That result cost the Big Red one of the eight seeds in the NCAA tournament and the right to host a home game in the first round. No. 2 Cornell (12-3) will visit No. 11 and sixth-seeded Maryland (10-3) at Byrd Stadium in College Park this Sunday, but Terps coach John Tillman is not as concerned about the Big Red's last outing as he is about that team's entire season.

TAMPA, Fla. - Faith Hill will sing "America the Beautiful." Jennifer Hudson will belt out the national anthem. Fighter jets will fly overhead. Gen. David Petraeus, commander of the U.S. Central Command, will toss the coin. And then two teams will clash on a lush spread of grass and 150 million fans from sea to shining sea will stop everything to indulge. America and football. A union as perfect as any, inspiring among its faithful the most important of tenets: loyalty and love and devotion.

The Orioles' 5-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday night gave them a 5-3 record eight games into this 11-game West Coast road trip. Perhaps even more important is that the win improved the Orioles' record to 9-3 when coming off a loss. That means that the Orioles have had back-to-back losses just three times this season. One of those times was this road trip, when they lost the final game against the Oakland Athletics and the first game against the Seattle Mariners. But the Orioles have avoided those consecutive loss slides that have foiled so many Orioles teams of the past.

ANAHEIM, Calif. - In this Southern California landscape full of highways, Orioles right-hander Chris Tillman grew up just about 15 miles away from Angel Stadium. As a kid, he rooted for the Angels. And despite having 56 major league starts under his belt over parts of five big league seasons, Thursday night's against the Angels was his first one in a long drive back home. It was worth the wait. In Tillman's homecoming, he turned in one of his most dominating starts of his big league career, allowing just three hits over eight scoreless innings to lead the Orioles to a 5-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels in the opener of this four-game series.

After Maryland's 11-8 win against Navy on April 5, the team improved to 8-1 and was an early favorite to earn the top seed in the NCAA tournament. Since then, the team has dropped two of its last three contests - including a 13-6 loss to Virginia as the No. 1 seed in a semifinal of the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament. But as analysts suggest that the No. 11 Terps are beginning to lose their grip on one of the tournament's eight seeds and a home game in the first round, coach John Tillman said he's not concerned about his team's position.

On an exceptionally cool night in Baltimore, Chris Tillman turned in the best outing of his young season Monday night in the Orioles' 2-1 win against the Toronto Blue Jays, allowing four hits, three walks and one run in 6 2/3 innings. It was his longest outing in four starts -- and ties Jason Hammel for the club's longest start this season -- and it was the first time Tillman gave up one run or fewer in 2013. He didn't get the win; the Orioles didn't earn that until Nick Markakis' RBI single in the bottom of the ninth.

The Tampa Bay Rays arrived at Camden Yards with the reputation of being a team that swings early, but the past two nights they've forced the Orioles to beat them by throwing strikes. A night after the Orioles won the series opener despite getting just five innings from starter Jake Arrieta, right-hander Chris Tillman wasn't as lucky. Tillman battled control problems Wednesday in the Orioles' 6-2 loss to Tampa Bay in front of an announced 13,591. Tillman constantly worked from behind in the count - throwing 17 first-pitch balls to the 22 batters his faced - and lasted just five innings after throwing 93 pitches.

Yale's recent success - an 8-2 record and the No. 14 spot in The Sun's rankings - should not be that shocking considering that the program earned a share of the Ivy League regular-season championship in 2010 and captured the conference tournament last year to advance to the NCAA tournament. The Bulldogs' emergence is certainly not a surprise to Maryland coach John Tillman, who occupied the same position at Harvard - an Ivy League rival of Yale's - from 2008 to 2010. Tillman, whose No. 6 Terps (8-2)

Owen Blye grew up playing attack in Chester Springs, Pa., but he quickly became familiar with a certain defenseman named Tucker Durkin who grew up about 40 miles away in Huntingdon Valley, Pa. Blye committed to Maryland and Durkin made his way to Johns Hopkins and this Saturday at Byrd Stadium in College Park, the pair will meet again as opponents. “I actually played against him sometimes in our summer league,” Blye, a fifth-year senior, recalled Tuesday afternoon. “He's a great defenseman, and obviously they have a lot of confidence in him. He's a big, physical guy, and he's done really well over there.

Chris Tillman had a rocky outing Saturday night in his first start of the season, which came hours after he was activated from the 15-day disabled list. The right-hander lasted just 3 2/3 innings and allowed five earned runs. Tillman, who was placed on the DL with a left abdominal strain on March 28, started strong in the first inning, needing just 13 pitches to retire the first three Minnesota Twins batters, including catcher Joe Mauer, in order. But Tillman quickly lost his command in the top of the second inning.
