Houston Astros pitcher Lance McCullers Junior  had season-ending surgery this week on a right arm injury.

He has been out all season and is not expected to return until the 2024 season. 

 

Mets' Drew Smith Suspended

New York Mets reliever Drew Smith has been suspended for 10 days after being thrown out of Tuesday’s game against the New York Yankees for allegedly using a “sticky substance” on his hands.

Smith denied using a banned substance but said he will not appeal the decision. The Yankees won the game 7-6.

 

Oakland Fans Reverse Boycott

Nearly 28,000 fans of the Oakland Athletics packed the city’s Coliseum on Tuesday for a “reverse boycott” that they hoped would sway the team’s owners to stay in the city. They showed up too late.

The Nevada Senate just voted to approve $380 million in public money to build a Las Vegas ballpark for the A’s. The protest crowd was more than triple the average number that attended recent home games.

Poor fan turnout, plus the stadium’s dilapidated condition, were cited as reasons for the team to seek a new home.
