Quick Glance: Mets and Giants: Belief or Skepticism? Strider's Insights on Arm Injuries
- Despite underperforming, the Giants show potential for a turnaround with a strong rotation and standout players like Bailey. However, their playoff spot is not guaranteed.

- Spencer Strider's injury turned out to be less severe than feared, allowing for a quicker return. Strider emphasized the complexity of arm injuries in pitchers, shedding light on the challenges faced during recovery.
- Reflecting on last week's team performances reveals positive trends for some like the Guardians, Braves, and Athletics, while others such as the Dodgers and Tigers face challenges. The continuation of these trends remains uncertain.

Quick Glance: Yankees' Aaron Boone Ejected for Fan-Heckling of MLB Umpire in Unusual Incident: 'I Don't Care Who Said It'
- Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected early in the game against the A's at Yankee Stadium after a fan yelled something. This marked his 35th career ejection, with a rather unusual reason this time.
- Umpire Hunter Wendelstedt warned Boone of an ejection after just five pitches if another word was said. A fan behind the dugout shouted something, leading Wendelstedt to toss Boone out of the game.
- Boone's reactions, including pointing to the crowd, were captured on video. In one clip, Boone can be heard denying he said anything. Despite Wendelstedt's error in judgment, the ejection stood, making for a highly entertaining situation.
- Although Wendelstedt misinterpreted the situation and Boone was innocent, the ejection remained. Nevertheless, the whole incident was incredibly entertaining, and Boone's 35 ejections in a short span of time is quite an impressive feat.

- Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani has broken the record for the most homers hit by a Japanese-born player in Major League Baseball.
