• Junior Caminero hit a 2-run homer as the Rays crushed the A's 12-4, keeping them on top of the AL East.
• That blast tied Caminero with Matt Olson, Kyle Schwarber, and Yordan Alvarez for the most home runs in baseball, all at 35.
• Hawaii football opens camp missing star receiver Pofele Ashlock, out with a knee injury, so the team is looking for others to step up before their August 29 opener at Stanford.
• Kauai's Little League team, from Kapaa, must beat Arizona in an elimination game today to stay alive in the West Regional.
• The Savannah Bananas may come to Hawaii, with state tourism officials in talks to bring the traveling baseball show to Les Murakami Stadium.
