Brayan Bello (P - BOS)
4/1/26 4:24 AM - Umpire loses track of count, leading to walk instead of strikeout for Astros' Cam Smith vs. Red Sox. Plate umpire Mark Wegner acknowledged he lost track of the count during Cam Smith’s nine-pitch walk in the fifth inning of the Houston Astros’ 9-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. In fact, Smith should have been out on strikes after the third pitch. Smith swung and missed at two cutters from Red Sox starter Brayan Bello to begin the plate appearance. After the second pitch, Joey Loperfido stole second base and Christian Walker scored on the play thanks to a throwing error by catcher Connor Wong. After about 40 seconds, Smith swung and missed at a sweeper. That should have been strike three but Wegner, a crew chief working his 29th major league season, flashed 1-2 for the count. Six pitches later, Smith worked a walk.

Javier Baez (SS/3B/OF - DET)
3/31/26 4:09 AM - Michael Soroka throws immaculate 5th inning in Arizona Diamondbacks debut. Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Michael Soroka threw an immaculate fifth inning on Monday night against the Detroit Tigers, becoming the fourth pitcher in franchise history to strike out three straight batters on nine pitches. The 28-year-old Soroka made quick work of Javier Baez, Kerry Carpenter and Gleyber Torres, blowing a 95 mph fastball past Torres for his 10th strikeout of the game, which tied a career high. Soroka was making his first start for the Diamondbacks after signing a $7.5 million, one-year deal during the offseason. Soroka was an All-Star for the Atlanta Braves in 2019 but back-to-back Achilles injuries caused him to miss most of the 2020 season and all of 2021 and 2022.
