Phillies’ historic streak ends After tossing 663 pitches across 190 batters, Phillies ace Cristopher Sánchez finally surrendered a run, halting a 50 2/3‑inning shutout stretch just shy of the 51‑inning mark that placed him among Hall of Fame company. The bullpen held the lead in the ninth, preserving a 3‑2 win and keeping Philadelphia atop the NL East despite the near‑record effort.

Blue Jays bolster rotation, Braves celebrate iron man Toronto added right‑hander Simeon Woods Richardson from Minnesota for cash, giving the club a fresh arm to back up Kevin Gausman as the Jays chase a wild‑card spot. Across the league, Atlanta’s Matt Olson extended his iron‑man streak to 844 games by delivering a tiebreaking sixth‑inning homer on Lou Gehrig Day, lifting the Braves to a 4‑3 victory over the Blue Jays and reinforcing his value as a middle‑of‑order cornerstone.

Injuries reshape lineups in the West San Diego designated outfielder Nick Castellanos for assignment after a 39‑game tenure, a move that follows his emotional video tribute during a return to Philadelphia and signals the Padres’ continued roster churn amid a $3.9 billion ownership transition. Meanwhile, the Giants placed left‑handed reliever Matt Gage on the 15‑day injured list with right‑knee inflammation, ending his season‑leading 29 appearances and forcing San Francisco to lean on rookie bullpen arms.

Red Sox, Yankees and Mets shuffle personnel Boston’s ace Garrett Crochet, already sidelined with shoulder inflammation, now contends with a low‑grade lat strain, prompting the Red Sox to explore additional starter depth ahead of a June stretch run. New York’s Aaron Judge missed Tuesday’s lineup against Cleveland due to a nagging bone bruise in his upper right rib that radiates to his shoulder, leaving the Yankees without their power bat for the weekend series. In New York’s other club, the Mets optioned right‑hander Jonah Tong to Triple‑A Syracuse before recalling left‑hander Trevor Gerber for the series finale with Seattle, a roster tweak aimed at shoring up the bullpen for a critical road trip.

Prospects and oddities capture headlines Kiley McDaniel’s latest prospect rankings highlight a wave of rising talent across all 30 clubs, with several mid‑season call‑ups poised to impact playoff races as teams assess farm‑system depth entering the final two months. In a bizarre moment, Angels outfielder Jo Adell saw a fly ball ricochet off his head and clear the right‑field fence for a Rockies home run, a rare “ball‑off‑head” incident that underscored the unpredictable nature of the game on Tuesday night.
