The weekend’s marquee matchup between the Yankees and Dodgers at Chavez Ravine ended in tragedy for New York as Yanks slugger Aaron Judge suffered a significant foot injury.
After further evaluation and MRIs, Judge is headed back to the IL.
The star outfielder had an amazing snag on Saturday — running after a deep ball hit by J.D. Martinez that nearly went yard. Judge caught the high-flying ball but crashed into a bullpen door, breaking Dodger Stadium in the process.
Cool play indeed … unfortunately, it resulted in the nagging foot injury for Judge.

Days after he made perhaps the catch of the season by running through the outfield wall at Dodger Stadium, Yankees slugger Aaron Judge is headed to the injured list.
The reigning American League MVP will head to the IL after being diagnosed with a contusion and a sprain of the ligament in his right big toe, Yankees manager Aaron Boone announced on Tuesday.
Judge made the jaw-dropping catch during Saturday’s 6-3 win over Los Angeles. He remained in the game, but has not been in the lineup since.
Even before Elly De La Cruz set foot on a big league field, he had already made history.
The much-hyped Reds prospect made his MLB debut at home against the Dodgers on Tuesday night after torching Triple A competition to the tune of 12 home runs and a 1.031 OPS in 38 games. When Cincinnati manager David Bell filled out the lineup card and slotted the 21-year-old third baseman into the No. 4 spot, De La Cruz became the fifth-youngest player in the past 100 years to make his MLB debut in the cleanup spot, per MLB.com’s Sarah Langs.

Novak Djokovic is on the precipice of his seventh trip to the finals of the French Open.
But standing in his way is the top player in the world.
Djokovic advanced to the semi-finals on Tuesday beating the 11th-seeded Karen Khachanov 4-6, 7-6(0), 6-2, 6-4. That puts him into the semis where he will take on top-seeded Carlos Alcaraz, who advanced with a straight-set victory over fifth-seeded Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Smoke from Canadian wildfires creates an eerie backdrop to Yankees-White Sox
The New York Yankees are set to take on the Chicago White Sox Tuesday night in the first game of a three-game series.
But the backdrop to Tuesday’s night game had a much different feel than a June evening the the Bronx.
Brendan Kuty, who covers the Yankees for The Athletic, shared a series of photos and videos from Yankee Stadium prior to first pitch.
Ja Morant’s representatives are alleging that the 23-year-old was caught waving a toy gun in his second gun-related incident in May.
According to a segment on Morant during Tuesday’s episode of “The Breakfast Club,” host Claudia Jordan claimed to be in contact with Ja’s camp and noted that NBA Commissioner Adam Silver is aware that the gun used in the IG Live video May. 14 was a toy.
The host said, “Adam Silver is still going to go through with the suspension; looking like it should be 30 games even though the [NBA] knows it was a toy gun.
What about Tyler Herro? Should Denver have called a timeout on the last play? What if the Heat actually win?! We break it down.
What was supposed to be a baseball game ended up looking more like a scene from Blade Runner 2049.
That’s the sort of picture which unfolded at Yankee Stadium for Tuesday night’s game between the Bronx Bombers and the White Sox. Smoke from Canadian wildfires drifted hundreds of miles south into the New York City airspace, creating an eerie atmosphere for players and fans to contend with.

The long-time golf channel analyst sounded defeated when discussing Tuesday’s news about the PGA Tour’s merger with the Public Investment Fund (PIF).
Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra has apologized for his terse response to a question posed by ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne following the Heat’s 111-108 victory over the Nuggets in Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night.
The Heat trailed the Nuggets by as many as 15 points in the contest. But strong performances from Gabe Vincent, Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo helped offset Nikola Jokić’s 41 points, 11 rebounds and four assists.
However, when Shelburne asked Spoelstra for his thoughts on making Jokić merely a “scorer,” Spoelstra delivered an unpleasant response.
