Guardians' José Ramírez sidelined with bruised forearm after being hit by pitch
CLEVELAND (AP) — Guardians third baseman José Ramírez is not in the lineup for Friday night's game against the St. Louis Cardinals due to a bruised right forearm. Ramírez was hit by a pitch by Toronto's Kevin Gausman during the fourth inning of Thursday's game. That came after Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was hit by a fastball from Cleveland's Tanner Bibee in the third inning and left the game with a bruised forearm. It is only the third time Ramírez has been out of the lineup and first since May 3 at Toronto. Manager Stephen Vogt said Ramírez's status is day-to-day but he is hopeful he can return to the lineup on Saturday. Ramírez is sixth in the majors with a .317 batting average and tied for sixth with 21 stolen bases. He is a finalist to start for the American League in the July 15 All-Star Game in Atlanta. ___ AP MLB:

PGA Tour Golfer Has Complete Meltdown During Rocket Classic on Friday
PGA Tour Golfer Has Complete Meltdown During Rocket Classic on Friday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Rocket Classic at Detroit Golf Club has already delivered some low scores and high drama. After round one, South Africa's Aldrich Potgieter and America's Kevin Roy shared the lead thanks to record-breaking 10-under-par 62s. Australia's Min Woo Lee and Patrick Cantlay also got off to hot starts, but with the cut line hovering around 5-under, pressure mounted heading into Friday's second round. Advertisement That pressure boiled over for Stephan Jaeger. The 36-year-old German, who began the day at two-under, found himself fighting to stay in the tournament. Things took a turn at the par-5 fourth hole when Jaeger hit a wayward 342-yard drive that went so far left, even ShotTracking struggled to locate it. Stephan Jaeger plays his shot from the first tee during the first round of the Travelers Championship golf Streicher-Imagn Images Frustrated, he let loose in true 'Happy Gilmore' fashion, furiously smashing his club into the ground three times. PGA Tour Live caught the moment, remarking, 'No surprise, Stephan Jaeger plenty of power here… and a lot of frustration.' But here's the twist—Jaeger channeled that anger into a highlight. After his meltdown, he hit a remarkable recovery shot, stuck his third to within six feet, and rolled in the birdie. That lifted him to three-under at the time, just one off the projected cut. His rollercoaster round didn't stop there. After a couple of bogeys on 8 and 9, and another at 13, Jaeger bounced back with birdies on 14 and 17 to finish even for the day, staying at two-under overall. Advertisement Despite the meltdown, Jaeger has shown flashes this season, including a win in Houston last year and a top-five finish. His playing partner Jake Knapp's girlfriend, Makena White, even defended him online. Presently, Chris Kirk and Philip Knowles are sharing the top spot. With the weekend on it's way, fans must get to see more about the ups and downs in Classic. Sometimes, even a meltdown leads to a mini-miracle.
