PHOENIX -- Milwaukee Brewers All-Star right-hander Brandon Woodruff has left his start against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the fourth inning with an abdominal injury.

Woodruff grimaced after throwing a second strike to Diamondbacks leadoff hitter Tim Locastro on Sunday, and Milwaukee's trainer immediately ran out with manager Craig Counsell.

After a brief discussion, Woodruff slowly walked to the dugout. The team said he left with "abdominal discomfort."

The hard-throwing right-hander allowed four runs on six hits. He was replaced Junior Guerra with the game tied 4-all.

Woodruff has been Milwaukee's best pitcher this season, earning his first NL All-Star nod. He entered Sunday's game 11-3 with a 3.53 ERA and had allowed three earned runs in 20 1/3 innings his previous three starts.

CLEVELAND -- Francisco Lindor wasn't thinking about his home run that helped the Cleveland Indians beat the Kansas City Royals 5-4 on Sunday. Instead, the All-Star shortstop said he was concerned only about the young child who was struck by a line drive he hit.

In the latest instance this season around the majors of a fan being injured by a foul ball, Lindor said he was told his liner sent a 3-year-old boy to the hospital.

"It stinks, man," Lindor said. "You don't want to get nobody hurt. I have heard the kid is doing well. He's in the hospital. He's getting checked and all I know is he's in stable condition and he's doing good.

"In a way, that makes me happy, but it stinks, you don't want that to happen to anybody, especially a little kid."

The Indians said in an email following the game that they could not disclose any information.

An adult holding the child immediately left the seating area after Lindor's drive down the right field line in the sixth inning. Lindor said he stepped out of the box briefly before continuing the at-bat against pitcher Glenn Sparkman.

"You take that moment to say a little prayer, 'God, help him. Hope he's OK,'" he said.

The protective netting at Progressive Field runs to the end of each dugout. Lindor's line drive landed several sections beyond the netting and was about 12 to 15 rows into the stands.

Lindor echoed the calls by many major leaguers to extend the netting. The Chicago White Sox are set to become the first team in the majors with netting that goes from foul pole to foul pole on Monday.

In May, a 2-year-old girl was sent to the hospital with head injuries by a foul ball in Houston.

"I encourage every MLB team to put the nets all the way down," Lindor said. "I know it's all about the fans' experience of interacting with players and I completely get that. You want to have that interaction with the fans, getting autographs and stuff, but at the end of the day, we want to make sure everybody comes out of this game healthy, and we got to do something about it."

"Everybody feels bad. And if we can put the nets a little bit further down, I think it would be a lot better," he added.

Lindor said he changed his approach when he stepped back into the box against Sparkman.

"You try to go back to this, focus on the pitcher, focus on the at-bat, focus on your job," Lindor said. "That at-bat, I didn't want to pull the ball at all."

"I was just trying to hit it somewhere else, not hit it in that direction, because then what happens is somebody gets hit and then everybody's paying attention to that person and nobody remembers there's a game going on. You don't want to pull the ball again, because then now you hit somebody else. It's not fun," he said.

Lindor homered after originally being scheduled to get the day off and Jose Ramirez hit a tiebreaking home run in the sixth.

Lindor talked his way into the lineup at designated hitter after manager Terry Francona planned on resting him. His two-run homer in the third tied the game at 2.

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. -- The chants began even before baseball's greatest closer stood to make his speech.

"Mariano! Mariano! Mariano!"

The former New York Yankees reliever paused and smiled.

"I don't understand why I have to always be the last," Mariano Rivera joked at his Hall of Fame induction Sunday. "I guess being the last one is special."

Rivera and fellow closer Lee Smith, starters Mike Mussina and the late Roy Halladay, and designated hitters Edgar Martinez and Harold Baines were feted on a sun-splashed day in Cooperstown. Taking the podium last, as he had predicted, Rivera delivered a speech that included a brief thank-you to his native Panama and the fans there.

"You're special for me," said Rivera, who spoke from notes, although he had his speech ready if needed. "Thank you for your help. Latin American fans, thank you. Thank you for loving me. I'm so humbled and blessed to receive this incredible honor. God bless you all."

The career saves leader with 652, Rivera was the first unanimous Hall of Fame pick by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. He pitched 19 seasons in the major leagues, all with the Yankees, and retired with 952 games finished -- also a record.

A 13-time All-Star, Rivera helped the Yankees win five World Series titles and seven American League pennants. He led the AL in saves three times and finished with 40 or more saves nine times, a record he shares with Hall of Famer Trevor Hoffman.

Halladay's widow, Brandy, fought back tears as she spoke. Halladay was 40 when he was killed in a plane crash in November 2017.

"I knew I was going to cry at some point. It's overwhelming the amount of people here today," she said. "I'm so grateful you're here. I can't tell you how many hugs I've gotten. They have extended so much love and friendship. I'm so grateful.

"The thank-yous should and could go on for days. There are not enough words to thank you. I say it a lot, but it takes a village."

Smiling from beginning to end, Smith congratulated his new classmates before crediting his family and hometown of Castor, Louisiana, for much of his success.

"It's been my family. They're the main reason I'm standing here today," Smith said. "To my mom and dad -- your support has meant everything to me."

Smith pitched 18 seasons for the Cubs, Red Sox, Cardinals, Yankees, Orioles, Angels, Reds and Expos and retired as MLB's career saves leader with 478, a title he held for 13 seasons. That total ranks third all time, as does his 802 games finished.

Martinez was a seven-time All-Star and five-time Silver Slugger Award winner for Seattle, where he spent his entire 18-year career. Martinez delivered the first part of his speech in Spanish before congratulating the other five inductees.

"I am honored and humbled to be standing here," said Martinez, who was born in New York and grew up in Puerto Rico. "It is hard to believe that a dream that started when I was 10 years old [ended here]. The first time I saw Roberto Clemente, all I wanted to do was play the game. What an honor to have my plaque in the Hall alongside his."

Martinez won two AL batting titles and led the league in on-base percentage three times. He was named the outstanding designated hitter five times, an award that now bears his name.

The soft-spoken Baines never displayed much emotion in his 22-year career, but his voice cracked throughout his speech.

"Somehow I acquired a reputation for not saying much. I'm not sure why," he deadpanned at the start. "From teachers to coaches who showed me kindness and discipline, I thank you all for what you've done for me. If I can leave you with one message, it's to give back to your community. I stand here very humbled. It has taken time to sink in."

Mussina pitched for 18 major league seasons and spent his entire career in the high-scoring AL East with the Orioles and Yankees. A five-time All-Star and seven-time Gold Glove winner, he posted a record of 270-153 and had 57 complete games in 536 starts. He was the first AL pitcher to win at least 10 games 17 times.

"I spent a lot of time reflecting on my time in baseball," said Mussina, the oldest first-time 20-game winner in MLB history when he reached the milestone at age 39 in 2008, his final season in the majors. "I was never fortunate to win a Cy Young Award or be a World Series champion, win 300 games or strike out 3,000 hitters. My opportunities for those achievements are in the past. Today, I get to become a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame. This time I made it."

The late Frank Robinson and Willie McCovey were honored with a moment of silence before Mussina was introduced. The two Hall of Famers died since last year's induction ceremony.

LOUDON, N.H. – Cole Custer saw his lead in the season-long NASCAR Xfinity Series wins column disappear again on Saturday after rival Christopher Bell took down the victory in the ROXOR 200.

Bell’s triumph at New Hampshire Motor Speedway was his fifth of the season, tying him with Custer for the series lead, and it left Custer with a bitter taste in his mouth after the 200-mile race.

Custer’s frustration was understandable, as well, given that Bell led a whopping 186 of 200 laps in Saturday’s dominant affair, while Custer failed to lead even a single lap in the event.

“It is frustrating, because there at the end I felt like we had a car that could compete with him, but I just wasn’t driving the car right at the start of the race and I got us behind on adjustments,” noted Custer. “From there, we were kind of playing catch-up. They gave me a really fast car and I think I learned a lot, but I wish we would have won. I learned a lot though and I’ll be better next time. I knew I wasn’t the best here, so I thought there was stuff I had to learn.

“I thought I had a good idea of what I needed to do, but there was still a little bit of a learning curve during the race.”

Saturday marked the fourth time in the last five races that either Custer or Bell has won in the Xfinity Series, with each driver scoring two victories during that timeframe.

The see-saw battle between the two has been one that has been entertaining for the fans, but tough lately on the driver of the No. 00 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford Mustang.

Afterward, Custer admitted that Bell simply had him outmatched on Saturday.

“He was just better than me today,” said Custer. “Their car was maybe a tick better, but I think we could have competed with them. Like I said before, I wasn’t driving the car right at the start of the race and I got us behind on adjustments … and then from there we just weren’t how we should have been at the end of the race because of how I was driving at that start.

“I do feel like I learned a lot for the next time, but it’s still frustrating.”

Leaving Loudon, Custer now sits second once again in playoff points earned, with 31 to Bell’s series-leading 36. However, he knows a major lesson he and his team can improve upon as they continue down the hot summer stretch.

“At the end of the race, we could match lap times with the 20, but we were behind on the short run (speed we needed),” Custer explained. “That’s something we’ll work on.”
