Tim Lincecum has yet to find a new team, and his potential return date remains a mystery.

A foul ball off the bat of Steven Souza Jr. struck a woman to the left of the Rays’ first-base dugout with two outs in the seventh in Friday night’s 1-0 White Sox win at Tropicana Field. A stretcher was deployed to carry her from the stands, though the fan was conscious and talking. Team officials said she was being evaluated at a nearby hospital.

The Nationals showed plenty of firepower Friday night in a 9-1 victory over the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.

It doesn’t have to be pretty to be effective.

Reds pitchers certainly had a tough time keeping the ball in the ballpark Friday night, as they allowed six home runs during a 14-3 loss to the Cardinals. But center fielder Billy Hamilton at least made sure one ball did not get away.

If pitching is your thing, there is plenty to choose from today. The full 15-game Major League schedule will begin with Felix Hernandez on the mound at Yankee Stadium for a 1:05 p.m. ET game and end with the Giants’ Johnny Cueto dueling the Dodgers’ Scott Kazmir for the second time in less than a week.

With the Braves mired in a nine-game skid to start the season, manager Fredi Gonzalez made the move Friday to put right fielder Nick Markakis at the top of the batting order. Markakis went on to drive in the game-tying run with a single to fuel a four-run eighth that lifted the Braves to a 6-3 win over the Marlins, their first victory of the season.

Friday marked the 69th anniversary of Jackie Robinson’s barrier-breaking debut, which Major League Baseball now celebrates annually as Jackie Robinson Day. Teams across the league honored the Hall of Famer, who died in 1972 at the age of 53, by holding pregame ceremonies, welcoming special guests and important community figures and raising money for the Jackie Robinson Foundation.

The Rangers have signed a two-year contract extension with Adrian Beltre, keeping the 37-year-old third baseman from becoming a free agent at season’s end.

Maybe the Phillies need more Sarge in their lives.

Mark Trumbo hit two home runs in a nine-run seventh inning, and the Orioles hit five on the game, in an 11-5 drubbing of the Rangers on Friday night.

Not quite The Flash.

At Yankee Stadium to celebrate Jackie Robinson Day, Commissioner Rob Manfred addressed what MLB would like to do next year for the 70th anniversary of Robinson’s debut.

He knows there’s a long season ahead, but White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu has set a high standard for his club in the chase to improve on a standout start.

Cardinals reliever Seung Hwan Oh has lived up to his nickname “The Final Boss” since coming to the U.S. in the offseason as a free agent.

Chad Bettis cooled off what had been a hot Cubs lineup, throwing six shutout innings in the Rockies’ 6-1 victory on Friday afternoon at Wrigley Field.

One day after a group of Mets minority owners agreed to purchase the jersey that Mike Piazza wore in the first game in New York City following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the club issued a public apology for letting the jersey out of their possession in the first place.
