It's 953 new COVID -19 hospitalizations have accelerated for a straight fourth week. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says more than 10 ,000 people were newly hospitalized with COVID -19 for the week ending August 5th, an increase of about 14 % from the week before. But is it hitting the elderly population the hardest and has it passed as it has in the past waves that we've seen? Here's CBS News health reporter Alexander Tin. Well the short answer is the officials say it's not hitting them harder than in any of the other previous waves we've seen of the virus in the winter and the summer of 2021, 2022 and obviously now 2023. What is a little bit different is the timing of this wave. It's happening a little later than it's happened in some previous summers. But again to be clear we are still far from the peaks we saw in the past two summers let alone the past two winters. CDC stats show that hospitals in the southeast are continuing to report the nation's highest COVID rate of admissions and nursing home cases as well. That includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Sports at 25 and 55 powered by Maximus moving people and innovation forward. All right let's get the update now Rob Woodfork. All right the Nationals need another late ninth inning rally. They won their last two games saw in walk -off fashion. It looks like they might have to do that again tonight if they're gonna get the W. The Red Sox leading five to four as we start the top of the ninth inning and it is Hunter Harvey on the mound. He's back from the injured list just came back today making his first appearance and the bullpen as a whole doing work here. This is the fifth reliever entering the game and they have yet to give up a run only two hits after a really rough start by Josiah Gray. Three plus innings gave up all five runs to the Red Sox. The Nationals did all their scoring in a very productive third inning in which they got RBI doubles from Ruiz and Garrett. Orioles The just getting started with the Padres. That one's scoreless in the bottom of the first and Washington and Baltimore sharing a parkway, an airport and apparently fisticuffs. The commanders and Ravens engaged in multiple fights at day one of joint practices and the coaches would pull their guys aside tell them to cut it out and for the most part they did in relatively short order. Got a good practice in. You can read about it on wtop .com. The mystics handling business in a much different way.

"25 and 55 powered by Red River technology Decisions aren't black and white. Think red. Here's the update now with Rob Woodfork. The Nationals fell to Washington's original baseball team suffering a 7 -2 loss to the Texas Rangers to see their losing skid reach five straight games and 15 of 16 at home. In a retooled offensive lineup CJ Abrams batted for the first time from our pitcher and they don't know if he's trying to get on base on a still basis. Dave Martinez made the move and said CJ looked great up there. You got a walk ahead. A stolen base. Play made behind second base. Unbelievable. And then Joey with two big home runs for him out. Hopefully he gets it going. I know we got the all -star break but that's kind of nice to see the him swing bat like that. Yeah Joey Manessas first career multi -home run game broke him out of a homerless slump of exactly two months and doubled his season total to four. The Orioles two run 10th inning got them a 3 -1 win in Minnesota. Their third straight victory. The Mystics hot shooting first half was enough to snap a two -game slide with a 96 -88 victory over the Indiana Fever. Brittany Sykes led all scorers with 29 points by far her season high and Ariel Atkins also season best in scoring with 26. She added 11 rebounds for her first double -double. Before the game there was silence a moment of for Nicky McCray -Penson the third overall pick in the 1998 WNBA draft and three -time all -star the with Mystics who died Friday at the age of 51.

Stone Garrett a grand slam in the third to give the Nats a 4 -3 lead they would never wish. Jamer Candelario added a solo homer as well. Hunter Harvey got the save. Trevor Williams a pitching win. That's still very much under 500 but you got to be pleased with what they've done this past month and they win their third straight road series Nationals back home to host the Reds tomorrow at Nats Park.

"It's gonna come along I think the offense will be better at the very least going forward but with Ariel Atkins you know I have to say I was I was a little disappointed last two games um yeah she needs to be a star and we say this we've said this a lot and and like we've said always she's gotten she gets better at like things every year just incremental improvement incremental improvement incremental improvement and she's a star she's us she's an olympian gold medalist there's no denying that she's a star just like I want to see her offensively take a little bit more ownership of this right um and and just say you know hey yeah we have Elena Deladon I need to get mine though she only took nine she took what nine shots in the last game um yeah nine shots in the game in the first game against Connecticut seven shots in the last game she should never go two for seven or two for nine I need her to have that waiters mentality of like I'd rather go oh for 40 than one for nine because one for nine means I stopped shooting yeah like so I I need her to just take it a little bit more and say I need to produce more and that doesn't mean just like that like that little dribble dribble steps aside you know mid ranger I like that as your as your kind of like bailout and the shot clock but I want her to get downhill more and really you know show her stuff because I think she's ceding that that that responsibility to cloud and to Sykes because they're a little better at it but I need Ariel to do it too because she needs to be the second best player on this team for them to go places right absolutely I agree um and I know last year that was a point of emphasis for Ariel individually you know she came into last season saying I want to get to the free throw line norm right I want to I want to put my shoulders down and drive and get into the bat and get into the and finish at the basket so I mean I think that's still there for her to do I think that you know every year I think once you put that in the atmosphere like this is what I want to improve upon it's not just for that year right it's like forever moving forward that you want that as part of your skill set so I think she's still working on you know the the win she already knows how but I think it's the win to do it right I mean when you have uh the two post players in there the spacing is a little different and I think that's what Eric Thiebaud is kind of alluding to um with their pick and roll actions saying that we're too crowded in our pick and roll actions and you know that defense is being drawn from from a big right so your second line of defense when you're trying to finish at the rim is huge so you know you have to pick and choose when to attack so it's not like I don't think she's like not attacking yeah okay I just think she's trying to figure out when to attack okay so that's different it's not that she's shying away from from that action she's just trying to figure out how do I get in there when there's so many bodies in the way yeah right and her teammate and her teammates have to find her too and her teammates have to find her um and Eric said you know Eric Thiebaud said before the Connecticut game on Tuesday said we've got to find a way to get her um not to take the most difficult shot in the possession right and I think that's what we've seen from her I mean she is taking that dribble and then to the side right um and and pulling but I think also yesterday um there was an opportunity for her it was like I think it was a paint three wasn't it a paint three or a paint long two where she got it kicked out to her and she knocked it in and um you know those are the kinds of shots we were used to seeing from Ariel Atkins right penetration and kick you know and they had Misamin and you know um but Misamin wasn't necessarily back to the basket when she was on the floor with Elena Deladon it was like a four out one in kind of situation more so than um you know two posts like it is kind of now it's almost reversed like with Shakira being the one kind of anchored on the on the block and Deladon floating a little bit more um in the forward position I so don't know it's got to be a win to go for Ariel Atkins and I think she's going to get it and and again you know the chemistry is still um redeveloping itself for the Mystics even though they're familiar like I said with one another they still have to have this time to formulate what the actions look like with Eric Thiebaud there now as a head coach and I'm sure they're running a lot of the same actions but you know they're different even though they're the same you know across their back they're different as players add more to their game like Ariel wants to add more to her game so it's not you know they're not like in a box you know like they're growing like they're always growing their game so you just have to you know give them some grace with that too but I think they'll get it um it looked better yesterday in snatches their spacing in the quarter court but Atkins will get it I think Cloud will too I mean Cloud was attacking she just wasn't finishing yeah I'm fine with that Natasha like to me like any any offensive thing from Natasha like obviously if she has a ton of turnovers that's a problem outside of that like Natasha like you do your thing you get to the rim you're gonna you're gonna make the right passes like we you're not you shouldn't be as reliant on her scoring you have to be a little bit more reliant on a player like Atkins and I'm with you so again I mean just in like the most simple terms right like she has moved from the shooting guard to be small forward if you want to have positions she is more of a small forward now with Brittany Sykes taking on more of the ball handling responsibilities so that will necessitate her getting the ball more from her teammates but yeah I think you have to just if the boat is built out of score offensively if the boat's built out of scoring from in this order Elena Deladon Ariel Atkins Shakira Austin then Ariel Atkins needs to do it every night and I think she can I think she will and I

All right, a couple notes on this draft overall just overall thoughts on this draft before I hop in and actually go one by one player by player and who I think is going to end up where I have to say that I think because of the new NIL rules and because of some of the other things that are going on with the women's college game and the amount of money that's being put into that, I think it's really interesting. I think we will start seeing more and more players taking 5 years exercising options to stay in school as long as possible because they can make good money. Not every WNBA franchise has the same facilities that a lot of these university have. And so I think we saw that with several players returning back to play and hopefully come out in the 2024 class. There were several players who I obviously had on my board before tyana Jackson, Elizabeth kitley, you know, a lot of players like that that Ricky E Jackson that we're going to be in my first round draft, but obviously have taken their name off of the board and have decided to return to school for another year. Also, one other thing that really sticks out to me about this draft is, in my opinion, this is a very shallow draft as far as Biggs go. There's going to be a few bigs taken, obviously the best player in the country for this draft is going to be a forward, but the vast majority of my picks in the first round are going to be guards. And that simply because I think that that's the best player available. I think if some of these teams are looking to shore up things in the front court, this is a very hard draft to do that. There's only a couple of options that I think are worthy of going in the first round. So if you're wondering why my draft is a little bit guard heavy, I really do think that this is the year for guards. There's not a lot of forwards and centers that I think are going to be key pieces moving forward for WNBA franchises out of this mock draft. Now, I will say anything that I say today a player in the future proves me wrong and they end up absolutely being a breakout player if I'm not super big on them, whatever I am here for that. I famously mentioned that Ariel Atkins was going to be a bust in the WNBA and she has done nothing but prove me absolutely wrong and she's become one of my favorite players for that. So with all of those notes and thoughts out of the way, let's go ahead and hop right in to the actual 2023 WNBA mock draft. Indiana, you're on the clock. Oh wow, that was really fast. It seems like he already had that prepared. Aaliyah Boston. Number one overall forward out of South Carolina back to back defensive player of the year in the country. Last year's player of the year champion in South Carolina, she's 6 foot 5 and does everything on both ends of the court. A lot of people are going to be surprised because her points per game are only 13.3 points per game and she doesn't have a ton of assists or anything. What people don't realize when they see aliyah Boston's numbers is that she has spent the last couple seasons being doubled and oftentimes even triple triple teamed by other teams trying to stop her. If you noticed and watched what Iowa did and was actually very successful at in the women's final four semifinal game is they absolutely suffocated everything around Aaliyah Boston. And they aren't the first team to have tried that, by the way. And so yes, when her points are not as high as other players, that's not an indication that she is and as good as other players. She's been double teamed essentially for two or three years straight now. She is absolutely phenomenal. And when she makes it to the league, you can't double team in the league. It's just not, I mean, you can, but you're leaving open at WNBA level player. So, aliyah Boston, number one overall to Indiana. I think that she could be a great spark for Indiana and now all of a sudden Indiana with Queen egbo and Alyssa Smith and aliyah Boston seemed to have an absolutely phenomenal front court starting up there in the hoosier state. So Indiana might just turn some heads with a very

"In. If it's their only one than we'll just no like oh like they were in all star that year Says a lot that it was only that year. I'm not worried about that. But i think there are players out there. My answer on twitter. Was i think ariel atkins is having a very good year of her getting some consideration. Money in the chat says. Jackie young jesse. Well the one that. I wonder is like if enough players get through for team. Usa that are like the front runners and enough players either sit out with injuries or other commitments or honestly just like not interested in like maybe the like. I don't think this happens as much with the wnba. But maybe they declined a roster spot to allow for just rest in the middle of the season. I'd like to see nia coffee. I think i'm not gonna say marie because the more obvious. Those were the two that i was worried. We were going to chat with Bet niger laney because everyone twitter's like no one's talking about these players and they're saying it so much that people are talking about those players a lot so like those are not surprises anymore. But i keep. I don't have the stats in front of me. Maybe those a really dumb pick but the coffee does anything good in a game like you know what we don't talk about her enough. I think she's entering my like underrated players list that i just kind of mentally keep track of throughout the season now those are both really good picks and again i think yeah i mean it really depends on how things shape up for the the women's for team usa. I i'm i'm trying to find. Have they released like an official full roster. I don't know if they have so. I think obviously there's a lot of players in the pool. Yeah i'm assuming when people say like oh we know who's on it. I'm assuming it's just like because we just kinda know who's going to be on right and so let me. I have age right now with a million and it's all the pool right. Yeah there's like thirty players on there. So i don't know i i can on their jordan canada's on there i would need a roster i would need a set roster memorize roster now. Who's going to be on and i don't know if i've even seen one. Maybe i just haven't been paying attention so that's on me if if it is a pretty.
