Yankees RHP Luis Gil (lat) begins rehab assignment
Gil, 27, was the American League Rookie of the Year in 2024 but has been sidelined all season. During spring training, he reported tightness in his pitching shoulder and eventually was diagnosed with a high-grade lat strain.
On June 21, he threw to batters in a workout at Yankee Stadium and now has progressed to game action.
Last season, Gil finished 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA in 29 starts. He struck out 171 in 151 2/3 innings but allowed 77 walks, the most in the majors.
The Yankees have been juggling their pitching rotation with the preseason losses of Gil and former Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole (Tommy John surgery). More recently, left-hander Ryan Yarbrough (right oblique strain) and right-hander Clarke Schmidt (Tommy John surgery) were placed on the injured list.

Bubba Wallace wins Brickyard 400 to become Indy's first Black winner
Bubba Wallace became the first Black driver to win on Indianapolis Motor Speedway's 2.5-mile oval, surviving a late rain delay, two overtimes, concerns over running out of fuel and a hard-charging Kyle Larson on Sunday in the Brickyard 400. The third NASCAR Cup victory of Wallace's career was also his biggest. It snapped a 100-race winless streak that dated to 2022 at Kansas. He also won at Talladega in 2021. It's his first win at one of NASCAR's four crown jewel races. 'Unbelievable,' Wallace shouted on his radio after crossing the yard of bricks. And while the final gap was 0.222 seconds, he didn't reach victory lane without some consternation. Larson trailed by 5.057 seconds with 14 laps to go but the gap was down to about three seconds with six remaining when the yellow flag came out because of rain. The cars rolled to a stop on pit lane with four to go, giving Wallace about 20 additional minutes to think and rethink his restart strategy. But after beating Larson through the second turn, a crash behind the leaders forced a second overtime, extending the race even more laps as Wallace's team thought he might run out of gas. Wallace risked everything by staying on the track then beat the defending race winner off the restart again to prevent Larson from becoming the fourth back-to-back winner of the Brickyard. It also alleviated the frustration Wallace felt Saturday when he spent most of the qualifying session on the provisional pole only to see Chase Briscoe surpass with one of the last runs in the session. He made sure there was no repeat Sunday, giving an added boost to the 23XI Racing co-owned by basketball Hall of Famer Michael Jordan and last week's race winner, Denny Hamlin, as it continues to battle NASCAR in court over its charter status. ___

49ers DE Tarron Jackson hospitalized after camp collision
July 27 - San Francisco 49ers defensive end Tarron Jackson was taken to a local hospital for evaluation after a collision during a training camp practice Sunday. Per reporters at the practice, Jackson was blocked by an offensive tackle, went to the ground and did not move for a few moments before he was able to move his hands. His teammates took a knee as he was tended to, and Jackson eventually had to be taken off on a backboard. Niners coach Kyle Shanahan said after practice that Jackson was conscious, talking and had movement in his extremities. "We were close to him so we could hear him talking and we could see everything moving," Shanahan said. "I just told the guys that, which eases them up a little bit with the biggest fears and asked them if they were OK to continue to go. They all yelled yes and we finished the last period." Jackson, 27, is entering his first sea

Shocking video appears to show baseball fans caught in vile sex act at Yankee Stadium
Two baseball fans appeared to be engaging in a sex act in the stands of Yankee Stadium in a shocking video that went viral on Sunday. The footage, which flooded social media, shows a man - wearing a Philadelphia Phillies jersey and cap - sitting alongside a woman near the top of the stands. Despite being surrounded by other fans - at what appears to be Yankee Stadium - the man appears to be performing a sexual act on the woman. 'This is f***ing insane,' one fan can be heard saying as the couple continues the act in broad daylight - and in clear sight of those around them. It is not immediately clear when the footage was taken but the Phillies have just spent the weekend in New York for a series against the Yankees. The two teams clashed again at Yankee Stadium on Sunday afternoon, in the third and final game of the series. The footage - captured by another fan a few rows back - appeared on TikTok on Sunday. Around the same time, the Yankees secured a 4-3 win over the Phillies. Back in 2012, reports emerged that a couple was caught having sex in the bathrooms of Yankee Stadium during a game against the Tampa Bay Rays. More recently, a man and his partner were accused of performing a sex act at the top of the stands during a game between the Oakland Athletics and Seattle Mariners. Last year, meanwhile, an OnlyFans model claimed she and her boyfriend had sex in the parking lot outside Allegiant Stadium during the Super Bowl in Las Vegas. Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs edged a thrilling 25-22 overtime win over the San Francisco 49ers. And model Kaylee Killion claimed she had sex in the parking lot with her fiance, Cody Nelson.
