The USA women’s soccer team face Japan in Paris on Saturday in a tasty quarterfinal clash at the 2024 Olympics. Emma Hayes’ side navigated the group stage with ease, winning all three of their games and scoring nine goals to win Group B. Going forward the USWNT have been sublime with Sophia Smith, Mallory Swanson and Trinity Rodman leading the charge, while the experience of Lindsey Horan and Rose Lavelle, plus the defensive work of Sam Coffey, has been crucial in midfield. Defensively there are still a few issues to work out for the USA but right now they look like the red-hot favorites to win gold in Paris.

The Orioles traded Johnson to Philadelphia on Tuesday in exchange for Gregory Soto, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. Through 18 starts with Double-A Bowie, Johnson has recorded a 2.63 ERA and 1.32 WHIP through 65 innings this year. It's likely he heads to Double-A Reading to begin his tenure with the Phillies, though a promotion to Triple-A Lehigh Valley could come in the near future if the 25-year-old righty continues at his current pace.
