Blue Jays, Rockies & Brewers

Cease exits early as Dylan Cease left the fifth inning with left‑hamstring discomfort, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was also removed after a pitch struck his elbow, weakening Toronto’s rotation in a 6‑4 loss. Meanwhile, Quintana leaves early when the Rockies’ left‑hander departed after just two innings with left‑elbow soreness, prompting Colorado to rely on its bullpen to hold off Arizona. In Milwaukee, Gasser optioned to Triple‑A following a blown early lead against Los Angeles; manager Pat Murphy hinted the move may be linked to suspected pitch‑tipping that cost the Brewers a chance to stay competitive.

Angels sweep & Yankees resurgence

Detmers dominates by retiring 24 of 25 batters and fanning a career‑high 14 over eight innings, guiding the Angels to a 2‑1 victory over Texas after a ninth‑inning throwing error by Justin Foscue. Across the league, Judge ends drought with a two‑run walk‑off homer that snapped an 11‑game RBI slump, delivering a dramatic win for New York and lifting the Yankees above .500. The contrasting performances underscore the impact of dominant pitching and timely power hitting on weekend standings.

Dodgers, Red Sox & roster updates

Hernández set debut as utilityman Kiké Hernández is expected to appear Monday after recovering from left‑elbow surgery, providing Los Angeles a flexible bat ahead of a crucial series finale. In Boston, Crochet throws BP on the Fenway mound, signaling his return from shoulder inflammation and offering the Red Sox a glimpse of their ace’s form before his next scheduled start. These moves highlight clubs’ efforts to reinforce depth as the playoff race intensifies.
