The New York Yankees pitcher Corey Kluber was the last pitcher to throw a no hitter back on May 19th since then no hitters have stopped. There has been a cloud of suspicion if baseballs have been doctored with the spider tack substance which MLB is on the lookout for (AP News file photo)

On Headline Sports podcast with Jessica:

#1 Major League Baseball has been watching out for pitchers trying use the sticky substance Spider Tack on the baseball but have not noticed anything suspicious of late.

#2 For awhile baseball was seeing no hitters pitched at a faster rate than usual with six no hitters on a pace to set an all time record but there has not been a no hitter thrown since the New York Yankees Corey Kluber threw one back on May 19th.

#3 Gio Urshela the Yankees third baseman was very lucky after getting having a broken bat splinter hit him in the eye which bounced off his eye. Ursehla felt some pain but was able to go on and later hit a go ahead home run which turned out to be the winner.

#4 New York Mets starter Jacob deGrom threw for three innings of perfect baseball before he was lifted for shoulder trouble. deGrom improved his ERA 0.54, with 111 strikeouts in 67 innings. deGrom was disappointed he couldn’t stay in the game.

#5 Here’s something different the Los Angeles Angels Shohei Ohtani will be in the home run derby. Ohtani who also pitches will enter the derby he currently holds second in the American League leaders for home runs with 21 home runs. Ohtani is the most highly touted player in the game who can pitch and can hit.
