Summary
Manny Machado, 34, is getting some well-earned rest after a foul ball bruised his toe, taking DH duties for the second straight game ahead of the All-Star break—just in time for a four-day recovery window. Though his current batting average ranks third-worst among qualified hitters, his last 29 games show a resurgence: 8 homers, 22 RBIs. Sung-Mun Song steps in at third, while Luis Campusano sits out with abdominal soreness, leaving Rodolfo Durán to catch. On the mound, the Blue Jays’ struggling Kevin Gausman (0-4 in his last four starts) faces off against Padres’ rising Germán Márquez, who’s rebounded from injury and owns a win against Gausman’s team. A matchup with history and grit—Sunday’s game promises fireworks. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
