Angels Acquire LaMonte Wade Jr. in Trade with Giants

The Angels acquired outfielder and first baseman LaMonte Wade Jr. from the Giants in a trade involving cash and a player to be named later, while designating Michael Darrell-Hicks for assignment to make room on the roster. Wade, who struggled this season, is expected to serve as a platoon outfielder for the Angels, providing left-handed depth in a right-handed heavy lineup. The Giants shed Wade's salary as he was unlikely to re-establish his previous form, and the Angels gain a versatile bench piece.

"Controversial First Strikeout: Slade Cecconi's Unusual Start After Review"

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Slade Cecconi had an unusual first Major League strikeout during a game against the San Francisco Giants. Initially ruled a hit-by-pitch, a replay review showed that the ball hit the knob of the batter's bat and then ricocheted into the catcher's stomach/groin area. The call was overturned, resulting in a foul tip strikeout. Despite the odd start, Cecconi settled in and pitched well, allowing two runs in 4 2/3 innings.
