The Yankees' Oswaldo Cabrera did not let an injury get in the way of love.
The Venezuelan utilityman married to fiancée Ari Gonzalez on Tuesday, according to photos posted to their Instagram stories.
The 26-year-old had to wear a cumbersome accessory during the nuptials, however, as he's in a walking boot after a gruesome left ankle injury suffered on May 12 in Seattle ended his season prematurely.
In the top of the ninth inning at T-Mobile Park, Cabrera ran home to score on a sacrifice fly, but stumbled, leading to the horrific injury.
He was then taken off the field via ambulance.
It was later revealed that Cabrera fractured his ankle, and he underwent surgery on May 18.
CHECK OUT THE AND
It seems the time away from the field helped Cabrera and Gonzalez put their relationship on the fast track; the pair announced their engagement on March 13.
In what looked to be an intimate setting, the Yankee wore a tan jacket over a white shirt and pants with a white loafer on his right foot, opting to accessorize with his boot over a tie or pocket square.
Gonzalez donned a thigh-length white dress with forearm-length sleeves for the occasion.
They'll have plenty of time for the honeymoon, as Cabrera is not expected to return to the team this season due to his injury.
Before his injury, Cabrera played in 34 games at second, third and in the outfield, posting 11 RBIs while hitting .243.

Fernandez wins DC Open fuelled by Shake Shack, de Minaur takes men's title

WASHINGTON (AP) — The biggest tennis title of Leylah Fernandez's career arrived at the D.C. Open on Sunday with the help of a terrific backhand, some superb returning — and energy courtesy of Shake Shack's burgers and fries. The left-handed Fernandez, a 22-year-old from Laval, Que., who is ranked 36th, wrapped up a big week of tight matches with a lopsided victory, defeating Anna Kalinskaya of Russia 6-1, 6-2 in the final. Fernandez earned her fourth singles trophy — all have come at hard-court tournaments — and first at a WTA 500 event. She came quite close to a Grand Slam championship as a teenager at the 2021 U.S. Open, making it all the way to the final in New York before losing to Emma Raducanu. There almost was a rematch in Washington, but Kalinskaya eliminated Raducanu in Saturday's semifinals. The men's trophy was won by No. 7 seed Alex de Minaur, who earned his 10th ATP title — eighth on hard courts — by saving three championship points in a 5-7, 6-1, 7-6 (3) victory over No. 12 Alejandro Davidovich Fokina. De Minaur, a 26-year-old Australian, was the runner-up in Washington in 2018. Davidovich Fokina dropped to 0-4 for his career in finals despite leading 5-2 in the third set Sunday and repeatedly standing just a single point from victory. This was his second time frittering away multiple match points in a tournament final this year. He entered the week at No. 26 and will make his debut in the top 20 on Monday; he remains the highest-ranked man without a title. Fernandez took quite a journey through the women's bracket. She needed 2 hours, 19 minutes to oust No. 1 seed Jessica Pegula — last year's U.S. Open runner-up — in three sets in the second round, then 2 hours, 20 minutes to beat Taylor Townsend in the quarterfinals, and 3 hours, 12 minutes for a three-tiebreaker victory over No. 3 seed Elena Rybakina — the 2022 Wimbledon champion — in the semifinals. After each of the last two, Fernandez and her father — who is also her coach — opted for Shake Shack. 'We got burgers, hotdog, cheese fries — everything that an athlete should not eat before a match, but it did the trick,' Fernandez said about what she ate after the Townsend match. 'It gave me the right nutrients to recover from the cramps and get ready for the next round.' Following the Rybakina marathon, Fernandez said she and her father 'were messaging, and I was, like, 'OK, what do you want to eat tonight?' We both answered at the same time: burgers. … That was kind of my diet for the whole week.' Sure worked: This was the first title for Fernandez since October 2023 at the Hong Kong Open. Plus, she arrived in Washington with a losing record this season and hadn't won more than two matches at the same tournament since last November. 'I have gone through so many different challenges this week. It just has made me stronger, in a way, that if I can get through this week — through the cramps, through the long matches, through the heat, the humidity — I can get through anything,' Fernandez said. 'So I was just very happy that I got to not only push myself physically through the limits, but also mentally. So that kind of will help me hopefully for future tournaments.' Against the 48th-ranked Kalinskaya, who hadn't dropped a set until Sunday, Fernandez saved the only break point she faced while breaking four times. One key: Fernandez claimed 10 of the 12 points when Kalinskaya hit a second serve. Another: Kalinskaya — a 26-year-oldwho is 0-3 in tour finals — finished with 24 unforced errors and just nine winners. 'Amazing fight this week,' Kalinskaya told Fernandez. 'You truly deserve it.' ___ AP tennis: Howard Fendrich, The Associated Press

Wife hits $500,000 lottery jackpot after husband forgot to buy tickets

After her husband forgot to buy their lottery tickets, a woman took matters into her own hands — and hit the jackpot. The unidentified woman recently stopped at a Redi Mart gas station in Lyman, South Carolina, and bought herself three Money Madness Extra Play scratch-off game lottery tickets. She told the South Carolina Education Lottery that the 'bright, shiny, and glittery tickets caught my eye.' She didn't win anything from the first two tickets after scratching off the hidden numbers. However, she said her third ticket was 'magical,' since it won her the top prize of $500,000. 'I felt like Jed Clampett when he discovered his bubblin' crude,' she said, referring to the character on The Beverly Hillbillies discovering oil on his land. This resulted in Jed's family's new wealth and their move to California. The woman also shared her plans for her earnings, adding: 'I'll have a little fun, take some trips, and retirement will come sooner rather than later.' As a result of her win, the gas station where she got the lottery ticket received a commission of $5,000. According to the South Carolina Education Lottery, the odds of winning $500,000 in the Money Madness Extra Play game are one in 1.152 million. This isn't the first lottery player in the U.S. who ended up winning big. Earlier this month, school bus driver Russell Ruff, who's based in Connecticut, discovered that his lost lottery ticket was worth $150,000. He lost the ticket shortly after purchasing it on Friday, June 13, at a gas station. So, it was 'miraculous' that his 16-year-old cat was the one who later discovered the Powerball ticket. 'We lost the ticket at home. It went behind a headboard, and we didn't think too much of it,' he said in the release shared by the Connecticut Lottery. 'We didn't really check the numbers.' Ruff said he had to move his bed when he realized the cat was stuck behind it. With the ticket back in his possession, he realized he had four of the five winning numbers, plus the Powerball number. He also had Power Play added to his ticket, which allows you to multiply your non-jackpot winnings by a specific amount. As a result, Ruff's prize increased from $50,000 to $150,000. In June, a Kentucky woman, Pamela Howard-Thornton, also won the state lottery after nearly losing the winning ticket by throwing it in the trash. Howard-Thornton bought four tickets for the Flamingo Bingo scratch-off game at a rest stop store in nearby Lebanon Junction after having a dream about winning a large jackpot. 'The first three were not winners, so I put them in the trash,' she added. 'Then I was like 'Where's my fourth ticket?' I looked in the trash and I was like, 'Oh, my gosh, I threw it away.'' Luckily, Howard-Thornton was able to recover the ticket and won the game's top prize of $80,000, or $57,600 after taxes.

Marcus Morris Sr.'s mugshot released after Florida arrest

The post Marcus Morris Sr.'s mugshot released after Florida arrest appeared first on ClutchPoints. Former NBA forward Marcus Morris Sr. was arrested on Sunday, July 27, 2025, in Broward County, Florida, on a felony fraud charge related to allegedly writing a bad check. According to TMZ and local booking records, Morris is being held without bond due to an out-of-state warrant. Authorities have since released his mugshot, but no further official comment or case details have been made public. The 35-year-old Morris, a 13-year NBA veteran, most recently played in the 2024 playoffs with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He started one game during the injury-plagued postseason run. Before that, he briefly signed a training camp deal with the New York Knicks in September 2024 but was waived within two weeks. Drafted 14th overall in the 2011 NBA Draft by the Houston Rockets, Morris carved out a lengthy and productive NBA career. He played for eight franchises, the Houston Rockets, Phoenix Suns, Detroit Pistons, Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, Los Angeles Clippers, Philadelphia 76ers, and Cleveland Cavaliers. Over 783 career games, he averaged 12.0 points on 43.5% shooting (37.7% from three), along with 4.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. His best statistical stretch came during the 2019–20 season with the Knicks, where he averaged a career-high 19.6 points and 5.4 rebounds over 43 games before being traded to the Los Angeles Clippers. Morris also played a significant role in the Boston Celtics' 2018 Eastern Conference Finals appearance, further cementing his reputation as a reliable two-way forward. Off the court, Marcus Morris transitioned into media following the 2023–24 season, making appearances on ESPN shows like First Take and Get Up alongside his twin brother, Markieff Morris. The brothers, renowned for their close bond since their college days at Kansas, have followed nearly identical paths through basketball and media. However, legal troubles are not new to Marcus Morris. In 2012, he entered a diversion program after punching a bar employee in Lawrence, Kansas. In 2015, both Morris twins and Gerald Bowman were charged with aggravated assault in a separate incident, all charges were eventually dropped.
