VANCOUVER -- Kenny Miller saw a chance to spend some time with his family and he took it. Miller and the Vancouver Whitecaps mutually agreed to terminate the Scottish nationals contract on Sunday, freeing the 34-year-old to take a vacation with his wife and children. "What this does is it gives me six, seven weeks to get a holiday, which Ive not had since Ive been out here, so its been a couple years since Ive been on a holiday with the family. So well get away on holiday probably in the next few weeks," said Miller. "Then we can sit down and hopefully find us a new club come the first of July (transfer window)." The 34-year-old Miller joined Vancouver in June 2012 and during his time with the club the native of Edinburgh made 45 appearances in all competitions. He had 13 goals and three assists in that span. "We are thankful for the contributions Kenny made both on and off the pitch during his time in Vancouver," said Whitecaps head coach Carl Robinson. "He has been a great role model, a constant professional, and someone who I consider a very good friend. We wish him and his family all the best." Miller has no specific plans worked out yet and said hed be happy to land anywhere. "To be honest with you, I wouldnt rule anything out," said Miller. "Ill be able to get away and look at all options to see what it brings. But like I said, I wouldnt rule anything out, its just a case of my agent getting down to work and finding us a new home." The contract termination came with no hard feelings, said Miller, who enjoyed his time in British Columbia and Major League Soccer. "Its the nature of the business that were in," said Miller. "Clubs have got to look after their base interests and obviously players have got to look after theirs. The club obviously wanted to move in another direction and I wanted to do something as well. "I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Vancouver, its almost been two years now. Ive enjoyed my two years there." Winnipeg Jets Jerseys .

All Showalter cared about was that the Orioles found a way to beat the Cincinnati Reds 9-7 Thursday night. "A W for Baltimore? Thats the way I draw them up," the manager said. "They dont have to be esthetically pleasing. At this stage, Im not looking for pretty, Im looking for W. I thought it was beautiful. I thought it was real pretty." After completing a 9-2 homestand against Tampa Bay, Minnesota and the Reds, the AL East-leading Orioles (82-57) maintained their 9 1/2-game lead and are assured a third straight winning season for the first time since 1992-94. Baltimore has 23 games left, all against AL East foes. "The homestand, that was huge for us," said J.J. Hardy, who delivered a tiebreaking two-run single in the seventh inning. "I think we had a chance to sweep every series. To take this one tonight was big, and now weve got all in division. It gets bigger." Nelson Cruz hit his major league-leading 37th home run in a six-run first inning, but the Reds chipped away and finally pulled even with a four-run seventh. Nick Markakis led off the bottom half with a single off Manny Parra (0-2), and Hardy put Baltimore back in front with a bases-loaded single on a 3-1 pitch from Sam LeCure. Tommy Hunter (3-2) worked 1 1-3 innings and Zach Britton got three outs for his 33rd save. "Theres a real will there to be satisfied with two out of three (after) they fought their way back, but our guys pushed back," Showalter said. "Weve being doing that a lot this year, pushing back." After watching the Reds get beat 6-0 on Wednesday -- their 15th loss in 21 games -- Cincinnati manager Bryan Price said he was going to "see what we have in our system." His starting lineup contained five September call-ups and first baseman Jack Hannahan, who has no RBIss in 17 games this season.dddddddddddd "It would have been nice to hold on to win but I was proud of the way the guys came back," Pryce said. "You get tired of sucking silver linings out of losses, but it was definitely some fun and entertaining things to watch." Devin Mesoraco went 4 for 4, hit his 21st home run and had four RBIs. But the Reds dropped to 66-74, the first time theyve been eight games under .500 since Oct. 2, 2009. Mesoraco doubled in two runs in the seventh to complete Cincinnatis comeback, but it wasnt good enough. "Anytime you go back and forth with a team it shows the fight in you and that you arent giving up," said leadoff hitter Jason Bourgeois, one of the call-ups. "A lot of positives we can take from tonight." Cruz homered with a man on and newcomer Kelly Johnson doubled in a run before Nick Hundley capped the first-inning uprising against Mike Leake with a three-run shot. Jonathan Schoop connected in the fourth to make it 7-2. The rookie has homered in three straight games. Leake yielded a career high-tying seven runs on seven hits in four innings. The three home runs he allowed also matched a career high. Orioles starter Chris Tillman gave up five hits over six innings. He left with Baltimore up 7-3.
