Quick Glance: MLB Recap: Padres Spoil Shohei Ohtani's Milestone Night

Jackson Merrill singled home the go-ahead run in the 11th inning as the San Diego Padres edged the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-7, with the game featuring eight home runs, including Shohei Ohtani's 175th career homer that tied Hideki Matsui's record for most homers by a Japanese player in the MLB.

Luis Severino and four relievers held the Kansas City Royals to just three hits as the New York Mets solidified their win, snapping the Royals' seven-game winning streak.

Willy Adames had three hits, including a home run, while Freddy Peralta struck out 11 in six strong innings for the Milwaukee Brewers against the Baltimore Orioles.

Max Fried led the Atlanta Braves to a win over the Miami Marlins by allowing just one run in 6 1/3 innings, and Elly De La Cruz and Tyler Stephenson connected for back-to-back home runs to lift the Cincinnati Reds to a victory against the Chicago White Sox.

Quick Glance: Gronk Crushes Baseball in First Pitch at Fenway Park

The Boston Red Sox enlisted former Patriots player Rob Gronkowski to handle the first pitch at Fenway Park.

Gronk spiked the baseball deep into the Earth's crust, resulting in triumphant applause.

A classic move we can expect from Gronkowski, who seems to be on a mission to crush anything he can get his hands on.

It's a smart move, as a botched first pitch often goes viral, but Gronk avoided this by destroying the ground instead.

Quick Glance: Ippei Mizuhara Remains Free Despite Bank Fraud Charges on $25,000 Bond

Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.

Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.

United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.

On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.

Quick Glance: Houck Dominates Athletics: Red Sox Win 9-0

Tanner Houck struck out 10 batters in six scoreless innings, as the Red Sox capitalized on five early errors by the Athletics to win 9-0.

Jarren Duran had three hits and three steals in the first three innings, Trevor Story added a two-run double, and Ceddanne Rafaela hit two sacrifice flies to help Boston score eight runs in the first three innings against the mistake-prone A’s.

Houck did the rest with the latest strong start for Boston, allowing three hits and no walks. All five Red Sox starters have played at least five innings in their first round, allowing a maximum of two runs.

Oakland also made history as the first team in seven years to commit at least five errors in the first three innings of a game and has made a total of 13 errors in the first five games of the season.

apnews.com/article/carl-erskine-dead-brooklyn-dodgers-boys-of-summer-c5cca9e92d28ec7da8152c2c4b275a9a

Quick Glance: Carl Erskine, Dodgers Pitcher and Last Member of 'Boys of Summer,' Dies at 97

Carl Erskine, known for two no-hitters and 20 wins in the 1953 season with the Brooklyn Dodgers, passed away at the age of 97.

A key figure in the celebrated Brooklyn teams of the 1950s, Erskine helped secure five National League Pennants. He was an All-Star and participated in five World Series.

Erskine posthumously received the Buck O'Neil Lifetime Achievement Award. His legacy encompasses compassion, encouragement, and positive societal impact.

Off the field, Erskine was dedicated to charitable causes, particularly advocating for individuals with developmental disabilities. His son Jimmy, born with Down syndrome, inspired his philanthropic work.
