Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay was “flabbergasted” at the official scorekeeper’s decision to change an error to a hit and end Max Fried’s bid for a no-hitter.

Clay Holmes has noticed at Citi Field that the winds can swirl at field level, never more so for him than Sunday afternoon, when it was particularly swooshing his staple sinker.

Padres first baseman Luis Arraez was released from the hospital after a frightening scene on Sunday.
