Baltimore Orioles pitcher Zach Britton insists hes not that interesting, but he had some interesting thoughts on the concerns with drug testing, the worst questions he asked and the players he likes to watch.Who was your favorite player growing up? Britton:?I had a couple. The guy that I watched the most was Tom Glavine. But growing up in Southern California, from a hitting standpoint, I used to like Shawn Green. He was on fire. When I was that age where youre really focusing on guys, he was on an unreal streak. I used to try to hit like him. Fred McGriff was another of my favorite guys to watch. He had that helicopter finish on his swing. The Crime Dog. When Shawn Green was going through his hot stretch, I modeled my stance after him. But when me and my brothers would play in the front yard, if I wanted to go for the long ball, it was McGriff.Who is your favorite player to watch today (not a teammate)? Britton:?I really like watching Jose Altuve play. Hes the most exciting guy. Its crazy how good he is. I feel like hes still underrated, which is shocking. I love everything about him. Hes just a baseball player. Everythings hard-nosed. He never really gives away anything. Hes never taking his time on a hit. He plays the game hard. When we play them, my family members and friends that come watch, they always go, Man, that Altuve guy, hes just a baseball player, huh? The guys just fun to watch.Who is your most underrated teammate? Britton:?Jonathan Schoop. Extremely underrated. Arguably the best arm on the team. Really good defense. Big guy, lots of power. Very young. And hes just starting to come into his own a little more. I remember watching him in the minors in 2011. He was playing with Manny [Machado] at the time, and there wasnt a huge separation between the two. I didnt know much about him at the time, but I remember thinking that this Schoop guy had a chance to be pretty good. Based on what hes doing now, I could see him reaching a Cano level. When I watch him play, I think he could be a Robinson Cano type player.Whats the most annoying question you are asked by the media?Britton:?How do you feel? After you do something good or bad, its always, Hey, howd you feel? Bad. If Im injured, I get it. But otherwise, give me something specific. If you win, how do you feel? I feel good, we won. If you lose, how do you feel? I feel like crap, we lost. And then if you give that answer, people are like, can you elaborate? Well, what do you want -- you asked me how I felt. I like when people engage you with not as broad of a question. Like, What was your thought process on this pitch? Whyd you go to that pitch in that count? I remember giving up a home run to Mookie Betts earlier in the year. We ended up winning, but someone was like, How did you feel on that home run to Betts? I felt terrible because I gave up a home run.One rule you would change? Britton: Im OK with taking away the four pitches for the intentional walk. We did it in high school and it was awesome. The coach just said, lets go ahead and put this guy on. You dont throw the four pitches. You just put him on. I just think its a dead period in the game that doesnt need to be there.Who is ultimately responsible for policing the game? Players, manager, umpires, league? Miller: On field incidents, its the umpires. Thats kind of their job. But its not just one set of people. Its everyones job collectively. The players have their role in enforcing the game as far as how players should act and how they should go out and play the game. MLB, they police the game on how they want the game to be represented. So I think theres three different tiers of people.How big of a problem are PEDs in todays game? Britton: Im not a hundred percent sure. I think the drug testing has done a good job. I feel like Ive already gotten tested 10 times this year. Even though guys feel like its inconvenient, we all want a level playing field. The thing with PEDs is, the NFL had a situation where there was like contaminated meats that guys were testing positive for. Thats kind of a scary thing, if you think about how strict our drug testing is. When you go to a visiting clubhouse, or even at home, you could be following all the rules, but whos responsible for that? I know there have been more positive tests recently, and guys have gotten suspended, so thats working. Then you hear the guys who say they didnt do anything, that they didnt put it in their body. Most of the time you dont believe them, but what if thats the truth? A lot of trust goes into what the teams feeding you, and what the opposing team is feeding you. So I think thats something to look into if the drug testing is going to be so strict.What is something that people dont know about you or have wrong about you? Britton: That Im interesting. Im not. Im a homebody. I like to hang out with my wife and my son, lay on the couch and hang out. If you play baseball, or if youre on TV or if your job is cool -- like playing baseball is a crazy gig that not a lot of people get to do -- the public thinks thats interesting. But I dont think my teammates think Im interesting. Some people like to go out and do things, but Im completely happy staying home. Were always on the go, so Im not that interested in it.

LONDON -- Garbine Muguruzas first major tournament as a reigning Grand Slam champion didnt last long.Less than a month after winning the French Open, the second-seeded Spaniard was beaten in the second round of Wimbledon on Thursday by a Slovakian qualifier ranked No. 124.In the biggest upset of the tournament so far, Jana Cepelova beat a listless Muguruza 6-3, 6-2 on Court 1 in less than an hour to reach the third round at the All England Club.Muguruza was not as sharp Thursday as she was in this tournament last year, when she lost to Serena Williams?in the final, or as she was in beating Williams in the final at Roland Garros this month for her first major championship.My energy was missing a little today, Muguruza said. From yesterday I felt a little bit tired. During the match and after the match, Im like, Tough day today, empty today.She sprayed ugly shots all over the court Thursday and finished with 22 unforced errors compared to just nine winners. Cepelova had a first-serve percentage of just more than 40 percent but still outplayed Muguruza with 14 winners and 12 errors.She played great, no fear, trying a lot of stuff that was working, Muguruza said. But my energy wasnt there. I was trying but it didnt work at all.Cepelova, Slovakias No. 5 female player, had to win three matches in qualifying to make it into the main draw. Its not the first time she has knocked off a top player. Cepelova ousted Simona Halep in the first round at Wimbledon last year, also on Court 1, and beat Williams at a tournament in Charleston in 2014.Last year I beat Halep on the same court and I had great memories, the 23-year-old Cepelova said. I am so happy.The last time a second-seeded woman lost at Wimbledon before the third round was in 2013, when?Victoria Azarenka?was beaten in the second round.Five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams won yet another match at the All England Club as three American women picked up victories as the tournament scrambled to get back on schedule.The eighth-seeded Williams, at 36 the oldest player seeded in the top eight at a major tournament since Martina Navratilovaa at Wimbledon in 1994, beat Greek qualifier Maria Sakkari 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 to reach the third round.ddddddddddddIt turned out to be an unexpectedly close, 2?-hour match between Williams, winner of seven Grand Slam titles and playing in her 19th Wimbledon, and Sakkari, making her first appearance at Wimbledon and third at a major.Williams, who had 38 winners but 31 unforced errors, won the most recent of her five Wimbledon titles in 2008. Since 2011, she has not been past the fourth round.Third-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska, the 2012 runner-up at Wimbledon, saved three match points and came back to beat 18-year-old Croatian Ana Konjuh, who accidentally stepped on a tennis ball and injured her right ankle in the next-to-last game.Radwanska pulled out the 2-6, 6-4, 9-7 victory in the second round after the 103rd-ranked Konjuh was broken while serving for the victory at 5-4 and 6-5 in the third set.Radwanska has made it to at least the semifinals at Wimbledon in three of the past four years.With play starting earlier on the outside courts after two days of bad weather, Madison Keys and Sloane Stephens?also advanced Thursday.Keys, seeded No. 9 after breaking into the top 10 for the first time this month, reached the third round with a 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 win over Kirsten Flipkens. Keys, a quarterfinalist last year, had 48 winners -- more than double the Belgian players 22.No. 18 Stephens, who reached the quarterfinals here in 2013, defeated Chinas Peng Shuai 7-6 (5), 6-2 in a first-round match that was delayed.Other womens winners included fourth-seeded Angelique Kerber advancing with a 6-1, 6-4 win over Varvara Lepchenko?and No. 5 Simona Halep, who beat Francesca Schiavone 6-1, 6-1.
