Former New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano will play his first game against his former team when the Seattle Mariners return to Yankee Stadium on Tuesday, April 29.

Jimmy Fallon wanted to give Yankees fans a chance to show how they really feel about his departure by letting them boo him. Fallon did not, however, tell these booing fans that the real Cano could hear everything.

It's not every day that an MLB player scores from second base on a flyout, but the Tampa Bay Rays' Desmond Jennings made it happen with a little luck and great hustle.

The Los Angeles Dodgers received a scare on Saturday evening when star shortstop Hanley Ramirez left their game against the Colorado Rockies with an apparent thumb injury, according to a tweet from Bleacher Report's Scott Miller:

The baseball gods can be fickle beasts sometimes. On the same night that he sent teammate Jean Segura to the clubhouse, Milwaukee Brewers star Ryan Braun left Saturday's 5-3 win against the Chicago Cubs with an intercostal strain:

He finished 1-for-4 in the win before making way for Elian Herrera in the ninth inning.

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Jean Segura suffered a freak injury on Saturday night, getting hit in the face by Ryan Braun in the team's dugout.

Cubs broadcaster Len Kasper reported that Braun was stretching and swinging his bat around when he connected with Segura:

The Brewers announced good news after the game:

Nothing seemed to go right for one New York Yankees fan in the top of the sixth inning Saturday.

In a matter of seconds, he whiffed while trying to catch a foul ball, lost his hat and couldn't connect on a high-five with another fan:

That's a rough series of events. 

The Yankees did hold on to win 4-3, so that probably made his day a little better.

The Detroit Tigers will need to find a way to hold their lead in the American League Central without starting pitcher Anibal Sanchez for the next 15 days. 

Chris Lott of MLive.com has the details:

Major League Baseball is considering a rule change at the end of the regular season that would possibly allow pitchers to use pine tar on the mound.

The discussion comes on the heels of a recent incident involving New York Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda. The young player was caught with pine tar on his neck during a game and was subsequently suspended 10 games:

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu hit his eighth and ninth home runs of the season in Friday's 9-6 win over the Tampa Bay Rays, setting an all-time rookie record for most homers before the beginning of May, per ESPN Stats & Info.

Jose Abreu has a lot of power, and the Chicago White Sox rookie showed that to the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night.

The game was tied 4-4 entering the ninth inning. Tampa Bay put two runs on the board in the top of the inning to go up 6-4, but closer Grant Balfour couldn't hold the lead. After Chicago put a run on the board to make it a 6-5 game, Abreu—who hit a solo home run earlier in the game—came to the plate with two outs and the bases loaded.
