Quick Glance: Mets and Giants: Belief or Skepticism? Strider's Insights on Arm Injuries
- Despite underperforming, the Giants show potential for a turnaround with a strong rotation and standout players like Bailey. However, their playoff spot is not guaranteed.
- The Mets staged an impressive recovery after a rocky start, but doubts linger about the sustainability of their success. New surprise players and managerial skills suggest a better season ahead, yet concerns exist regarding rotation and defense.
- Spencer Strider's injury turned out to be less severe than feared, allowing for a quicker return. Strider emphasized the complexity of arm injuries in pitchers, shedding light on the challenges faced during recovery.
- Reflecting on last week's team performances reveals positive trends for some like the Guardians, Braves, and Athletics, while others such as the Dodgers and Tigers face challenges. The continuation of these trends remains uncertain.

Quick Glance: Shohei Ohtani Sets New Record for Most MLB Homers
- Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani has broken the record for the most homers hit by a Japanese-born player in Major League Baseball.

- Ohtani's record-breaking blast traveled 423 feet and put the Dodgers ahead 2-0. Prior to this, Ohtani had not hit a homer in seven consecutive games.
