Overview
- Miami achieved its first franchise sweep of the Yankees with a 7-3 clincher Sunday, fueled by former New York prospect Agustín Ramirez’s two solo homers and Edward Cabrera’s six strong innings.
- Luis Gil’s season debut unraveled as he allowed five runs over 3⅓ innings, exposing control issues that have hampered the Yankees’ rotation since the trade deadline.
- The Mets bolstered their bullpen by adding Ryan Helsley, Tyler Rogers and Gregory Soto, then designated Rico Garcia and saw starter Frankie Montas yield seven runs without recording an out in a 12-4 loss.
- Pete Alonso launched his 250th career home run, moving him two shy of the Mets’ franchise mark during New York’s 12-6 win over the Giants.
- Vladimir Guerrero Jr. climbed to third place in the Baseball Musings batter rankings and José Ramirez’s two-run homer energized the Guardians’ wild-card push.
