Blue Jays manager John Schneider has his players back even in the midst of a dreadful season. 

After Orioles closer Craig Kimbrel went up and in on a fastball that hit the Vladimir Guerrero Jr. between the numbers in the seventh inning Monday, Schneider quickly walked out of the dugout, seemingly angry, and said something inaudible to Kimbrel and catcher Adley Rutschman. 

“Guerrero looks at Kimbrel and shakes his head. And why is John Schneider coming out now?” one of the Orioles announcers said on the MASN television broadcast with Toronto ahead by four runs. 

“Maybe he’s just coming out...

SAINT-DENIS, France -- This time at the Olympics, hammer thrower Annette Nneka Echikunwoke got to compete. Not only compete, but win a medal — for the United States. Three years ago, Echikunwoke arrived at the Tokyo Games ready to represent Nigeria, but she wound up needing to leave before even getting to take a throw. Nigeria was among a handful of countries deemed “high risk” by track’s anti-doping regulators in the lead-up to those Olympics — forcing its athletes to be subjected to more drug testing.
