Fried has slowed down of late, but his season-long numbers still sparkle. The former Brave has pitched to a 2.62 ERA in 21 starts in his first campaign in Pinstripes. The Rays will send Joe Boyle to the mound to start against the Yankees, but the expectation is that it will be a bullpen game for Tampa Bay. 21+. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER.

Blue Jays' George Springer hit in head with 96 mph fastball, leaves game with help of trainers
There was a scary moment in Baltimore on Tuesday night when George Springer was hit in the helmet with a 96 mph fastball. The Toronto Blue Jays outfielder was in the batter's box in the top of the ninth with the Orioles two outs away from a victory. Kade Strowd was on the bump for Toronto, but on the first pitch Springer saw from the right-hander, it drilled him. Strowd was visibly upset, and Springer lay on the dirt for a little while as he was tended to by staff. Springer walked off the field with some help from trainers. Blue Jays manager John Schneider hinted that the situation could have been much worse. "It kind of got him in his shoulder, then helmet, which… thankfully, he was able to turn a little bit, too," Schneider told reporters after the game. Schneider said Springer was being evaluated at the time of his media availability. He was not in the starting lineup for the first game of their day-night doubleheader on Wednesday. The Blue Jays recently placed catcher Alejandro Kirk on the seven-day concussion injured list. Toronto owns a 5.5-game lead over the New York Yankees in the AL East, as they continue their hot streak, and the Bombers' season continues to seemingly slip away. Springer has had a resurgence this season in Toronto, as his .291 batting average is his highest since batting .292 in Houston back in 2019. His .383 on-base percentage is also his highest since then, and he's already driven in more runs (57) this season than all of last year (56). He's also one home run shy of his total of 19 from the 2-24 campaign.

MLB umpire Brian Walsh under intense scrutiny after missing obvious strike call in Orioles-Blue Jays game
MLB umpires have been scrutinized for years now, especially those behind the plate calling balls and strikes. However, baseball fans were in an uproar after an egregious call on Monday night in the game between the Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays. During the AL East matchup, Orioles starter Zach Eflin delivered a pitch that broke left to right and ended up right in the heart of the plate. Blue Jays batter Ernie Clement stepped away from the dish in what appeared to be his acceptance of the first-pitch strike. However, home plate umpire Brian Walsh just stood there, indicating it was a ball in his eyes. Eflin and catcher Adley Rutschman both froze at the same time, staring at Walsh in disbelief that he didn't call the pitch a strike. "Wait a minute," one of the Orioles announcers was heard saying over the broadcast. "My goodness," his partner chimed in. "… You couldn't set it on the tee in the heart of the plate any better. Look at this pitch right here. How do you miss that?" Luckily for the Orioles, the call wasn't a big one in the game, and they ended up crushing the Blue Jays, 11-4, at their home, Camden Yards. Walsh, though, was under fire recently after a strike-three call in the bottom of the ninth to end the game between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Houston Astros. The D-Backs were down one run to the Astros when All-Star Ketel Marte awaited a 3-2 pitch from Josh Hader with two outs and a runner on first. Hader's backdoor slider was outside the strike zone, but Walsh called it for strike three despite the pitch never being in the zone. While Marte walked away without saying anything to Walsh, the Diamondbacks' broadcast team wasn't happy.
