Jonathan India Day-To-Day After HBP

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India is considered day-to-day after imaging results showed no fracture to his lower leg after he was hit by a pitch in Thursday's Field Of Dreams Game.

Tyler Badie Gets Team-High Six Carries In Win

Baltimore Ravens running back Tyler Badie had a team-high six carries during the preseason win over Tennessee on Thursday evening. However, he didn't do much with the opportunities he was afforded, as the rookie finished with only 19 yards. J.K. Dobbins (knee) and Gus Edwards (knee) don't have a clear return date. As a result, […]

Nate McCrary Leads Team In Rushing On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens running back Nate McCrary finished with five carries for a team-high 31 rushing yards during the preseason win over Tennessee.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley looked good during the preseason win over Tennessee, finishing with 109 yards and a touchdown off an accurate 16-for-18 passing.

Leody Taveras Records Second Consecutive Two-Hit Game

Texas Rangers outfielder Leody Taveras finished Thursday's 7-3 loss against the Houston Astros 2-for-4 with an RBI, making it his second two-hit game in a row.

The Houston Texans have issued a failed physical designation to tight end Adam Shaheen. He was recently acquired with a seventh-round pick in exchange for a sixth-round pick from the Miami Dolphins.

Benny Snell Jr. Misses Thursday's Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. (knee) didn't take the field during Thursday's practice. Snell was seen with a wrap around his knee on Wednesday.
