MLB NEWS BRIEFING

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff made a strong return from the injured list, recording his 900th career strikeout in his first start since April 30. Woodruff carried a perfect game into the sixth inning against the Pittsburgh Pirates. In a separate incident, Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Kyle Tucker was removed from Monday's game against the Minnesota Twins due to low back spasms, exiting in the second inning.

LEAGUE ADMINISTRATION

Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred stated that guidance provided to the San Francisco Giants regarding their rainbow-themed caps was insufficiently clear. Manfred communicated in a letter to Missouri Senator Josh Hawley that players were not adequately informed of their option to decline wearing the Pride caps during games.
