The sports world stands in solidarity with L.A. Dodgers pitcher Alex Vesia and his wife Kayla, who are mourning the devastating loss of their newborn daughter, Sterling Sol Vesia.

Alex, 29, took to social media to express gratitude for the outpouring of love and support during this heartbreaking time.

“Thank you Dodger Nation, Blue Jays organization, and all baseball fans for your love and support. We have seen ALL your messages, comments, and posts. It’s brought us so much comfort,” he wrote.

In a beautiful show of unity, relievers from both the Dodgers and Blue Jays’ bullpens wore hats bearing Alex’s number 51, honoring his strength and family. The gesture came after Alex stepped away from the World Series to be by his wife’s side during their most difficult days.

The Dodgers organization and fans across the MLB have flooded social media with messages of condolences and prayers for the Vesia family.

As the couple continues to heal, their story serves as a powerful reminder of the bond between athletes and the communities that support them — a shared spirit of compassion that transcends the field.

🖤 May baby Sterling’s light shine forever in their hearts.

The New York Yankees turned up the power in Houston on Tuesday night, defeating the Astros 7-1 behind a standout offensive performance led by Trent Grisham and Jazz Chisholm Jr.

With the Yankees holding a 2-0 lead in the fifth inning, Houston pitcher Framber Valdez walked Paul Goldschmidt with one out, followed by consecutive singles from Cody Bellinger and Aaron Judge to load the bases. After Giancarlo Stanton struck out, Trent Grisham stepped up and launched a grand slam into the left-field seats — his second in just five days — giving New York a commanding 6-0 lead.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. added to the fireworks, blasting two solo home runs to round out the scoring. The Yankees’ offense clicked on all fronts, making this their eighth grand slam of the season, and showing no signs of slowing down as they chase the AL East title.

Despite the win, the Yankees remained 2.5 games behind the first-place Toronto Blue Jays, who secured a 12-9 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on the same night. The victory reinforces New York’s strong push in the playoff race as the season heads into its crucial stretch.
