You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Ryan O'Hearn put on an absolute clinic at PNC Park Tuesday night. The Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman, in his first season with the club, drove in ten runs on three home runs against Atlanta, shattering the franchise's all-time single-game RBI record. A historic night in Pittsburgh.
Over in Tampa Bay, the Rays are making a very loud statement in the AL East. Ian Seymour struck out twelve, Yandy Diaz and Hunter Feduccia went back-to-back in the fourth, and Tampa walked away six to four over New York. The Yankees have now fanned seventeen times in back-to-back games, and the Rays' lead in the division is up to four games. That is a team playing with serious purpose right now.
Shifting to the WNBA, the Las Vegas Aces are sending two to the two thousand twenty six All-Star Game in Chicago. Jackie Young was officially named a reserve Tuesday, joining teammate A'ja Wilson on the roster. Young has been a cornerstone of that Las Vegas core for years, and this selection has been a long time coming.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
