The sick and weakened dolphin calf was drowning in a tidal pool on Thailand’s shore when fishermen found him. Conservationists advised the fishermen how to provide emergency care until the calf could receive veterinary attention at a marine research center. The baby was nicknamed Paradon, or “brotherly burden,” because those involved knew saving his life would be no easy task. The Irrawaddy dolphin native to shallow Asian waters is considered a vulnerable species because of habitat loss, pollution and illegal fishing. Paradon has had a month of round-the-clock care with staff and volunteers to hold him up in the water, clean his tank and provide him milk. He’s still weak but seems to be on the road to recovery.

SEATTLE — The pitching ranged from filthy to unhittable at times, including a parade of relievers making life miserable for hitters. Runs were scarce, needing to be manufactured 90 feet at time and scored on sacrifice flies. The tension in a packed T-Mobile Park grew as each inning passed wi…

Yankees reliever Lou Trivino got a tap on his shoulder as he warmed up in the bullpen alerting him he had on the wrong jersey: the No. 50 belonging to Jameson Taillon instead of his own 56. Trivino pulled off his sweatshirt to throw his pitches and the problem became clear. He began to warm in case he was needed to replace Wandy Peralta, who surrendered an RBI single to pinch-hitter Dermis García but finished the 2-hour, 50-minute game for his third save as New York beat the Oakland Athletics 3-2.

Atlanta Braves reliever Jackson Stephens was hit in the side of the head by a line drive Friday night and was headed to a hospital for tests. Stephens walked off the field in the ninth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals and appeared to be unhurt. With one out and runners on second and third, Brendan Donovan blistered a line drive that struck Stephens in the right temple. The ball ricocheted into shallow right field for an RBI single. Stephens never went down, but was immediately checked by the Atlanta training staff. After a moment, he walked off the field under his own power to loud applause at Busch Stadium. Tyler Matzek replaced Stephens and got the final two outs. The Braves won 11-4.
