Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman threw a 101 mph fastball near the head of pinch-hitter Michael Brosseau while closing out his first save of the season, prompting the benches to empty after New York ended a six-game losing streak against the Tampa Bay Rays with a 5-3 victory Tuesday night.Chapman’s first pitch to Brosseau with two outs in the ninth inning whizzed past Brosseau’s head, and umpires met before issuing warnings to both benches amid a budding rivalry that’s been dominated this season by Tampa Bay. Chapman struck out Brosseau to end it, and Brosseau began walking toward the visiting dugout before turning back to exchange words with someone on the Yankees. The dugouts and benches emptied and players gathered near home plate, but they mostly kept their distance before dispersing to their respective clubhouses.DJ LeMahieu homered twice, and Gio Urshela hit a tiebreaking, three-run Little League homer in the sixth inning as New York beat the Rays at Yankee Stadium for the first time...

NEW YORK (AP) — Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. was scratched from the lineup against the New York Yankees with a sore left wrist. The Braves pulled Acuña from the lineup about 90 minutes before first pitch Tuesday night in the Bronx. Acuña had been set to hit leadoff and play center field. Ender Inciarte filled in for Acuña on defense, while shortstop Dansby Swanson slid to the top of the batting order.Acuña was pulled after five innings during a blowout loss in Philadelphia on Monday, but did not appear to have suffered an injury. The 2018 NL Rookie of the Year hit three homers over a doubleheader Sunday and seemed to just be heating up for the reigning NL East champs. The 22-year-old is batting .258 with four homers, nine RBIs and an .887 OPS in 18 games.___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports
