Stanton, Rice hit early homers as Yankees beat Rays on busy trade deadline day
NEW YORK (AP) — Giancarlo Stanton and Ben Rice homered in the first two innings and the New York Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Rays 7-4 in a game delayed by rain for nearly three hours Thursday. The Yankees highlighted a busy trade-deadline day by agreeing to acquire reliever David Bednar from Pittsburgh in a deal they were working to finalize. Stanton hit his eighth homer since returning from tendinitis in both elbows last month four batters in for a 3-0 lead against Tampa Bay starter Ryan Pepiot (6-9). Rice hit a three-run homer into the Yankees' bullpen in right-center to make it 6-0. New York starter Marcus Stroman (3-3) allowed four runs and six hits in five innings. Pepiot was tagged for seven runs and six hits in four innings. BRAVES 12, REDS 11, 10 INNINGS CINCINNATI (AP) — Marcel Ozuna drove in Matt Olson with a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning to give Atlanta a win over Cincinnati in a game that featured a total of 12 pitchers and 30 hits combined. Ozzie Albies had four hits, scored two runs and drove in two to pace the Braves, who broke a 3-3 tie with eight runs in the eighth inning, only to give up eight runs in the bottom of the frame. Pierce Johnson (2-3) pitched 1 1/3 innings and Raisel Iglesias got his 13th save. Cincinnati's Emilio Pagán (2-4) retired all three batters he faced but took the loss.

Braves and Reds both score eight runs in the same inning
With all due respect to the MLB trade deadline, Thursday's most ridiculous moment came in the eighth inning of the Atlanta Braves-Cincinnati Reds game. It was a normal game for seven innings. The Reds took a 3-0 lead in the third but the Braves came back, tying the game in the sixth. Classic baseball stuff. And then the Braves scored eight runs in the top of the eighth, opening the frame with five straight hits and notching another six straight baserunners after a Jurickson Profar strikeout. The Reds went through four relievers in that inning before Brent Suter finally ended the inning, with the game seemingly lost at 11-3. The Reds responded with eight straight hits to open the bottom of the inning, capped off by a three-run homer from Spencer Steer. Per Elias Sports, it was only the third time in MLB history that both teams scored at least eight runs in the same inning, joining a Detroit Tigers-Texas Rangers game on May 8, 2004 and a Chicago White Sox-New York Yankees game on Aug. 2, 2007. No more runs came in the ninth, sending the game to extras where the Braves prevailed via a sacrifice fly from Marcell Ozuna in the 10th inning. Braves closer Raisel Iglesias prevented the ghost runner from scoring to deny the Reds their best win of the year. It all made for a fun win probability chart. The game was one of only three played on trade deadline day, in which the Reds were a moderate buyer and the Braves were a hesitant seller. Atlanta is well out of the playoffs at 46-62, while the Reds are in the wild-card hunt at 57-53.

Fox News' host Greg Gutfeld to appear on Jimmy Fallon next week
Fox News late night host Greg Gutfeld will be a guest on Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show" next week, marking the libertarian-leaning on-air persona's first appearance on a traditional network late-night talk show. His debut guest appearance is scheduled for the Thursday, August 7 episode, NBC spokesperson Eve Kenny confirmed. Gutfeld is the host of Fox News' late-night "Gutfeld!" which debuted in April 2021 and has found success, averaging 3.29 million viewers, according to Late Nighter. The comedian and political commentator has long criticized late-night hosts like Seth Meyers and Jimmy Kimmel. But he expressed a soft spot for Fallon during a Thursday, July 31 episode of the Fox News conservative cable hit "The Five." "I'm psyched about it because Fallon comes across as a great guy, nice guy," Gutfeld told his co-hosts. "Also me going on his show shows him that he's not worried about upsetting his peers." He then recalled President Donald Trump's guest appearance on the "Tonight Show" ahead of the 2016 election, in which Fallon was scrutinized for "humanizing Trump" after tousling his hair for a comedic bit. "But it didn't come from anybody but the people on the left who wanted to teach all entertainers a lesson that if you dare show that Trump is a human, then you're toast," he added. "And so it's kind of nice that he's taken this risk." Fallon is among Trump's late-night foes Though its unclear what Fallon and Gutfeld will discuss during the episode, the talk show crossover comes after Trump's public squabble with several late night hosts following CBS' cancellation of the "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert." Trump celebrated the cancelation on Truth Social July 18 writing "I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings." Colbert addressed the post in his July 21 episode monologue saying: "How dare you, sir? Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism? Go (expletive) yourself." The president later made a jab at Kimmel, insinuating that his show would be the next to end before taking aim at Fallon. "The word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, (Jimmy) Fallon will be gone," Trump wrote on a July 22 Truth Social post. Fallon participated in the beef by zeroing in on Trump's former relationship with deceased convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein following reports that Attorney General Pam Bondi had reportedly told the president that he was named multiple times in the government's files. "Well, guys, the big story continues to be President Trump's handling of the Epstein files, and now newly uncovered footage shows that Jeffrey Epstein attended Trump's second wedding in 1993," Fallon said. "You had the bride, the groom, the groomer." Contributing: Anna Kaufman, USA TODAY This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Fox News' host Greg Gutfeld to appear on Jimmy Fallon next week
