Background

The AL East-leading Baltimore Orioles have a formula for winning games, and they're sticking to it.

This is thanks in no small part to Mark Trumbo, who just won't stop dropping Trumbombs.

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson did not play on Saturday against the Boston Red Sox because of a thumb injury, per Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com.

New York Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira has an articular cartilage tear in his right knee, which could require surgery if the knee doesn't respond to treatment. He left Friday's game against the Baltimore Orioles and was placed on the disabled list Saturday.

O'Day Placed on 15-Day DL

Friday, June 3

According to a report by CBS Baltimore, O'Day was placed on the 15-day disabled list in what is being described as a right hamstring strain.

And now for a question that's not as absurd as it should be.

The Toronto Blue Jays (28-26) can even their home record and complete a three-game sweep of the New York Yankees (24-27) with a victory in the series finale Wednesday at the Rogers Centre.

Fact: Mookie Betts (23) became the fourth-youngest Boston Red Sox player dating back to at least 1913* to hit three home runs in a game. Joe Lahoud (22), Jim Tabor (22) and Fred Lynn (23) are the only players to do so at a younger age.

*Data available to B/R only goes back to 1913.
