Player Performances

Tigers slugger Colt Keith crushed three home runs in Monday's 9-3 victory over the Astros, boosting his 2026 total to four homers while driving in six runs. Across the diamond, Cardinals pitcher Dustin May raced toward a one-hitter before losing a perfect game in the seventh, still recording three strikeouts in a 3-0 shutout against the Padres. Meanwhile, Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong achieved the first cycle of the 2026 season, completing the feat with a single, double, triple and homer in Milwaukee's win.

Player Movements & Injuries

Brewers shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt, who signed an eight-year, $50.75 million contract 2½ months ago, was promoted to the majors from Triple-A Nashville on Monday. Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh prepared for his return Tuesday against Baltimore after missing 11 games with a right oblique strain since May 14. Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz ran the bases Monday and could begin a rehab assignment this weekend, two weeks after sustaining a hamstring strain. Rangers shortstop Corey Seager joined the concussion IL following a home plate collision on Thursday, sidelining him indefinitely.

Discipline & Policy

MLB cautioned teams against personal writings on Pride Night hats after San Francisco Giants players, including Landen Roupp, had Bible verses etched into their headwear. In separate disciplinary action, Padres reliever Ron Marinaccio received a three-game suspension for hitting Orioles slugger Gunnar Henderson with a pitch, while manager Craig Stammen was handed a one-game ban for his role in the incident.
