Rays place All-Star 1B Jonathan Aranda (wrist) on IL
Aranda left the game after a fifth-inning collision with New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton, who hit a soft ground ball to third base. Junior Caminero rushed the throw, an attempt that was off the mark and forced Aranda to reach across Stanton's body near first base.
After his glove collided with the 245-pound Stanton, Aranda dropped the ball and mitt as he clung to his wrist.
Aranda had a hit and an RBI in what ultimately was a 7-4 road loss for the Rays.
Through an interpreter, Aranda said he needs to rest for three weeks, but he remains optimistic he will make his way back to the field with Tampa Bay fighting for a playoff spot.
"I have hope of returning, but it was scary," Aranda said. "It was very painful. I have never had that feeling before."
A first-time All-Star, Aranda leads the Rays with a .316 batting average to go along with 12 home runs and 54 RBIs. Tampa entered Friday four games out of the final AL Wild Card spot.
"I think it's pretty good news, given what we saw yesterday,'' Rays manager Kevin Cash said. "Let's see how the bone heals. I think we'll do re-imaging in about three weeks ... and hope."

McIlroy to miss PGA Tour play-off opener
Rory McIlroy will not play in the opening play-off event of the PGA Tour season next week. The Masters champion was not listed in the field for the FedEx St Jude Championship in Memphis, which was released on Friday. Northern Ireland's McIlroy has not played since finishing tied seventh at the Open Championship at Royal Portrush last month. The tournament in Memphis will mark world number one Scottie Scheffler's return after his four-shot victory at the Open. Three-time FedEx Cup winner McIlroy, 36, struggled at the St Jude Championship last year, finishing joint second last on nine over par. The top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings after this week's Wyndham Championship will qualify for the St Memphis, the top 50 will advance to the BMW Championship in Maryland on 14-17 August. The season-ending Tour Championship, featuring the top 30 players, takes place in Atlanta the following week. McIlroy, who is second behind Scheffler in the FedEx Cup standings, is scheduled to play in the Irish Open at the K Club and the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth in September before returning to the United States for the Ryder Cup in New York.

World 100m champion Sha'Carri Richardson arrested on alleged domestic violence charge
Reigning 100m world champion Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last week for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Richardson was charged on Sunday with fourth degree domestic violence, according to the police report obtained by The Associated Press (AP). On Thursday, she ran in the opening round the women's 100m at US track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon, before withdrawing from the semi-finals. She has an automatic bye to the world championships in September in Tokyo as the defending champion. 'USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter,' USA Track and Field said in a statement. Richardson's agent did not immediately reply to an email request for comment by AP. The police report said an officer at the airport was notified by a Transportation Security Administration supervisor of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, sprinter Christian Coleman. The report said Richardson was detained on Sunday 27 July and released the following day. In the police report, the officer said: 'I was told Coleman did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim.' Richardson won the 100m at the 2023 world championships in Budapest and took silver at the Paris Games last summer. She also helped the 4x100m relay team to an Olympic gold.

Eddie Howe provides 'complex' Alexander Isak update after Newcastle rejected £110m bid from Liverpool… as boss admits 'I don't know what happens next'
Eddie Howe says he only knows Alexander Isak is in Spain through media reports, and admits the situation is 'far from ideal'. The Newcastle striker is currently using the training facilities at former club Real Sociedad as he and his agent try to force a move to Liverpool. He is not here with the squad in South Korea after reporting a thigh injury. Liverpool saw an opening offer of £110million rejected on Friday, and later claimed they were walking away from the deal. Sources close to the situation are baffled by the value of the bid, given it was £10m less than what they discussed during informal talks last month. Newcastle see no reason why Isak will not return to training with his team-mates on Tyneside next week, but it would appear his decision to head to San Sebastián was not sanctioned by his club. 'I know where he is, really, through the media,' Howe told Mail Sport from here in Seoul. 'From that perspective, it's difficult for me to go into any kind of detail. The situation is far from ideal and is quite complex.' Of the rejected offer, Howe said: 'I was made aware of a bid yesterday (Friday) and that bid was turned down, all before I'd even heard about it. People back in England are dealing with the situation. I don't know what happens next. From our perspective, we still support Alex in every way and my wish is that we see him in a Newcastle shirt again.' There is some sympathy for Isak inside Newcastle, with a feeling he has been badly advised. Sources have also expressed surprise and annoyance at Liverpool's conduct. When asked if the Premier League champions had unsettled his star player, Howe said: 'It's difficult, because you don't know what is going to happen from this point. We can only deal with the reality. The reality is we had a first bid from Liverpool and I believe that was turned down. From this point onwards, let's see what happens. 'In terms of trying to upset players and all that kind of stuff, from my perspective, we can only talk about our conduct. We try to do things in the right way. Signing players is always complex. We just try to do what we think is right. I can't talk about other clubs, that's not for me to say.'
