We have to give more praise to Padres catcher Rodolfo Duran's journey. (top of show) 

(5:25) A tough blow for the Braves as catcher Drake Baldwin is headed to the IL with a strained right oblique. Are they still in command of the division?

(13:29) Yankees starter Gerrit Cole could be making his MLB return sooner than expected. 

(15:17) The "Tarps Off" trend is taking over MLB and some fans at The Trop got in on the craze last night.

(17:02) The Padres kicked off the Dodgers series on a high note in a classic pitchers duel between Michael King and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. How much of a threat are the Pads to win the NL West?

(27:28) This one hurt. A's pitcher J.T. Ginn had a no-hitter running into the ninth inning. He ended up with the loss.

(31:04) Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony suffered a setback on his wrist injury during his first time swinging a bat.

(33:49) Funny interaction between umpire Laz Diaz and Salvador Perez after Perez challenged back-to-back pitches.

(36:38) Cash is going both ways in the Eric Lauer deal with the Dodgers. It's a weird one.

(39:23) Blue Jays pitcher Adam Macko made his MLB debut yesterday and he was on another planet the whole night.

(41:25) The Brewers got to the Cubs yesterday and of course Pat Murphy had a viral postgame quote.

(45:30) In addition to demoting Royce Lewis, the Twins placed Ryan Jeffers on the IL.

(48:01) The NHL stripped a draft pick from the Las Vegas Golden Knights. Scott has some thoughts.
