A miserable season for the New York Mets may have just gotten worse.Juan Soto left the Mets 4-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday during the sixth inning with soreness in his left calf. Soto batted twice in the game and drew two walks before leaving for pinch-hitter Jorge Polanco. Following the game, Mets manager Andy Green told reporters (including ESPNs Jorge Castillo) Soto will undergo an MRI exam on his left calf on Saturday. He conceded that the star outfielder could go on the injured list. This story will be updated with more information.

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Kazuma Okamoto is off to a solid start in his MLB career. And now a historic one as well.Okamoto clubbed his 23rd homer of the season on Friday against the Boston Red Sox, breaking Shohei Ohtanis record for long balls by a Japanese rookie in MLB. He jumped on a first-pitch sinker from Boston reliever Greg Weissert and dropped it in the center field stands.The homer was projected at 408 feet.Obviously, Ohtani is not famous for how many homers he hit in his rookie year, but it is at least a positive milestone for a player the Blue Jays gave a four-year, $60 million deal last offseason after a decade of standout play for the Yomiuri Giants. Ohtani posted his 22 homers as a rookie in 367 plate appearances at 23 years old, compared to Okamotos 411 PAs at 30 years old.Kazuma Okamoto has been one of the Blue Jays' better hitters this season.Brian Fluharty via Getty ImagesOkamoto hasnt quite been an All-Star with a slash line of .227/.309/.452 through 101 games, but those numbers at least qualify him to be one of the most productive bats in a profoundly disappointing season for the reigning AL champions.This record isnt settled, either. Munetaka Murakami, the other big Japanese power bat to enter MLB this season, was on pace to be the first to break Ohtanis record until he hit the injured list with a hamstring strain in May. Hes now back and sits at 20 homers.Based on their respective rate stats, Murakami seems to have a pretty good chance to finish with more homers than Okamoto this season and claim the record, but theres a lot that can happen in the final two months of the season.

Team Wisco was propelled to victory in the Brewers Alumni Legends game by none other than former Brewers pitcher Ryan Wolf. You would expect Wolfs game-winning move to be have come from his left arm. After all, he did win a playoff game for the Brewers as a starting pitcher in 2011. Despite that, and a combined 1,642 home runs scored by everyone else playing in the game, Wolfs moment came as he hit a two-run homer. How did Wolf achieve this feat?Honestly, I kind of blacked out, he said after the game.Wolfs home run celebration sent the crowd into a frenzy. He replicated Prince Fielder's 2009 Bowling ball celebration with the rest of Team Wisco. It was Wolfs fifth career home run and first one in a Brewers uniform. It was not, however, his first at American Family Field. In 2001 he hit a home run as a member of the Philadelphia Phillies.It wasnt his only achievement of the night though, Wolf also pitched in the game and gave up no runs, cementing his performance as Brewers Alumni Legends game Shohei Ohtani. Wolfs efforts earned him the inaugural Brewers Alumni legends Game MVP award, which he was presented after the game. He leaves American Family Field not only with the title, but a gold medal and a three-tier trophy nearly as tall as he is. When asked how he planned on getting it home, Wolf revealed that he is not heading home after the game and instead embarking on a trip to Rome. He joked he plans to carry the trophy around Europe, like its the Stanley Cup. He did, however, realize that he would be leaving American Family Field without one thing: his home run ball. I didnt even think about that, he said. This article originally appeared on Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: As expected, the MVP of the Brewers alumni game was...Randy Wolf?

Team Wisco beat Team Milwaukee by a score of 3-2. The more important column on the scoreboard was zero injuries.The inaugural Brewers Alumni Legends Game on July 24 at American Family Field featured an unexpected hero at the plate and a close finish to the three-inning affair.Randy Wolf, who spent three years with the Brewers as a pitcher and won a National League Championship Series, came up with the big swing with a two-run home run in the second inning off left-hander Doug Davis.I dont think there was anybody that thought that was going to happen, Wolf said. Not only that moment, just being around everyone the last two days. Its great that the Brewers started this last year with the Home Run Derby, reliving these old times. Seeing generations, different generations connect is pretty cool.Wolf hit five home runs across his 16-year career. He didnt hit any as a member of the Brewers but his first did come in Milwaukee, back in 2002 at Miller Park off of Jimmy Oston.I have to come back as an old man to hit one, Wolf said.Team Wisco to that point had scratched across one run on a Casey McGehee single to right off 2004 all-star Dan Kolb.McGehee also made the play of the game on defense, lunging to his left at the hot corner to spear a Ryan Braun line drive in the first inning.It was a 180-degree showing for McGehee from last year when he failed to homer during the alumni home run derby.The final inning got tense or, as tense as it can get at this event.Team Milwaukee drew within 3-0 and loaded the bases, at which point manager Garth Iorg fittingly brought in 2017 all-star close Corey Knebel. Knebel got two straight grounders, but there was an error on the first to potentially open the door.I had the adrenaline going, Knebel admitted.That brought Ryan Braun up, but the former MVP couldnt deliver one of his signature big moments, grounding out. Knebel got Richie Sexson to bounce out to end the game.So much fun, Braun said. Grateful for the opportunity. So much fun to reconnect with the fans, teammates, coaches, support staff, to have the opportunity to get back on the field is something all of us are really grateful for. At this stage of life, nobody takes it for granted.A bit more than half the crowd of 37,089 stuck around for the alumni game after the Brewers dropped a 5-2 clunker to the Colorado Rockies to begin the day.Other highlights included Brad Boxberger making a couple nice catches in right field, Carlos Villanueva striking out Eric Thames and Jonathan Lucroy motoring home from second base on McGehee's hit.This article originally appeared on Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: Behind unlikely hero, Team Wisco wins inaugural Brewers alumni game

NEW YORK Mets slugger Juan Soto was removed from Friday nights game against the Los Angeles Dodgers because of left calf soreness.Soto has been nursing the injury since returning from the All-Star break last week. He was New Yorks designated hitter in the opener of a 10-game homestand Friday, but got lifted for pinch-hitter Jorge Polanco leading off the bottom of the sixth inning with the score tied at 1.Instead of playing left field, Soto has been the DH in his last two games as he tries to shake the calf problem. He sat out Wednesdays loss at Milwaukee but was back in the lineup Friday after the Mets were off Thursday.Soto walked in both plate appearances against Dodgers starter Roki Sasaki before coming out of the game.Soto also exited New Yorks first game after the break in the eighth inning July 16 at Philadelphia. The Mets were off the following day, and he returned to the lineup as the DH on Saturday and Sunday in Philadelphia.The five-time All-Star missed about 2 1/2 weeks in April with a right calf strain.Soto began the night batting .283 with 21 homers, 52 RBIs and a .944 OPS.
