After Christian Yelich helped put Milwaukee ahead, Josh Hader prevented the Mets from coming back. Yelich hit his major league-leading 14th home run, tying the record for most before May 1, and Hader needed just 20 pitches to retire six batters Saturday night and close out the Brewers' 8-6 win over the New York. Yelich's fourth-inning homer off Noah Syndergaard (1-3) was the first on the road this season for the reigning NL MVP. Continue to Article

Aaron Judge won't be back with the New York Yankees anytime soon, a further blow to an injury-decimated team with a mediocre record 3½ weeks into the season. New York's biggest offensive threat and the heart of its clubhouse went on the injured list for the third time in four seasons Sunday, a day after straining the oblique muscle on the left side of his abdomen while hitting a sixth-inning single against Kansas City. "Especially tough times like this, when a lot of guys are beat up, I wanted to be out there in the trenches with the guys every single day," Judge said after Sunday's 7-6, 10-inning win over Kansas City .

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Mike Moustakas was out of the lineup Sunday against the Los Angeles Dodgers after X-rays uncovered a fracture at the tip of his right ring finger. The Brewers elected not to put the veteran on the injured list just yet, considering him day-to-day moving forward.

Ryan Braun stood in the on-deck circle, smiled and shook his head in disbelief as Christian Yelich crossed the plate after hitting his second home run of the game against Los Angeles on Saturday. Yelich pushed his major league-leading home run total to 13 with a pair of solo shots, and Chase Anderson pitched five strong innings in a spot start as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Dodgers 5-0. ''It's getting to the point where it literally doesn't make sense,'' Braun said of Yelich's early season performance. Continue to Article
