However, the much-needed victory may have been costly for New York, which lost shortstop Francisco Lindor due to left calf tightness after he scored from first on Francisco Alvarez’s double in the fourth inning.</p> </section><section id="section-3"> <p>Lindor, who was 2-for-2 with an RBI infield single in the first, was injured the same night Juan Soto returned from a 15-game absence caused by a strained right calf.

Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal is out for the rest of the season after sustaining a thigh injury during his side’s La Liga 2025-26 match against Celta Vigo, the club confirmed on Thursday.
The Spanish league leader, however, said that he is likely to be available for the FIFA World Cup 2026, which is happening over the summer, where Spain will be looking for a second title.
“The tests carried out have confirmed that first-team player Lamine Yamal has an injury to the biceps femoris of his left leg,” Barcelona said in a statement.

Yamal converted from the spot in the 39th minute against Celta Vigo, but went down seconds after the goal, clutching his left leg. He was helped off the field soon after by Barca’s medical team, as it went on to win 1-0.
“The player will follow a conservative treatment plan. Lamine Yamal will miss the remainder of the season and is expected to be available for the World Cup,” it added.
The 18-year-old has 24 goals and 18 assists for Barcelona in all competitions this season, helping the side remain in pole position to lift the La Liga title with 82 points from 32 games, nine ahead of second-placed Real Madrid.
