I found these growing in some grass, the cap is about 3.4 inches across with a 3.5 inch stem.
It's got the rings on the bottom and the edge like a liberty cap, so I'm wondering if I got one.

Wow, umm.... Or as CureCat said, 
I would suggest that you do a TON of research into mushrooms and mushroom hunting. Perhaps a google search of 'liberty caps' would be a good place to start. Had you done that, you would know that liberty caps grow in the FALL in the Pacific Northwest and parts of Europe. I don't believe that Maryland is in one of those two places, but maybe it's moved since the last time I was there. If you looked at a picture of a liberty cap, you would see that it does not look even remotely like your mushroom, even to someone who has never seen a mushroom before in their lives. Kind of like confusing Michael Jordan for George Bush. Sure they both walk on two legs but after that, not so much of a resemblence.
Sorry to be so snarky, but I'm worried about you. You could easily die eating the wrong mushroom, and you really have a lot to learn. The good news is, it's fun stuff to learn if you stick with it!

That's a good idea, but before you do that, use the excellent resources on this site and sites like mushroomexpert.com and identify that mushroom you have. It'll be good practice. Also, make sure you see the stickies in this forum about how to post a proper ID request.
Good luck.

That's true, libs can sometimes be found in the northeast, but finding them in Maryland would be an extreme stretch. And it's July.

Libs don't grow in MD, for sure.. I hunt there all the time. You're best off looking for pan subbs, gyms, or maybe even caerulipes if you are patient and lucky enough to find 'em.
