    Phillies slugger Harper likely to stay as DH when he returns

    Phillies slugger Bryce Harper is likely to continue as a designated hitter and might not play the outfield when he returns from a broken left thumb that has sidelined him since late June. Harper had been periodically doing a throwing program with the hopes of returning to the outfield this season, but interim manager Rob Thomson said on Tuesday that Harper has cut back on that regimen. “We’re just going to back off a minute and concentrate on the hitting,” Thomson said before Philadelphia faced Miami.

    Drury, Nola homer in big rally, Padres beat Giants 13-7

    This is the team the San Diego Padres envisioned having when they acquired Juan Soto, Josh Bell and Drury at last week's trade deadline. Brandon Drury hit a go-ahead, three-run home run in the sixth and Austin Nola’s two-run homer capped a seven-run rally — all with two outs — that carried the Padres to a wild 13-7 win against the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday.

    Brewers break out of recent slide with 5-3 victory over Rays

    With each of Milwaukee's top two closer options unavailable, Matt Bush stepped in and showcased the depth of the Brewers' bullpen as they adapt to life without four-time All-Star Josh Hader. Bush, acquired from the Texas Rangers last week, struck out two batters and retired the side in order in the ninth inning to close out the Brewers' 5-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night. “That's as good of an inning as we've seen this year,” Brewers manager Craig Counsell said.
