LEADING OFF: Father’s Day tributes, Nats streak, Yanks skid

A look at what’s happening all around the majors Sunday:

DAD’S DAY

Major League Baseball is paying tribute to the dads this weekend, with blue tones added to hats, uniforms and cleats for Father’s Day. Nationals star Bryce Harper wore eyeblack patches to honor his pop. Angels teammates Cam Bedrosian, C.J. Cron certainly could share some stories – all of their dads played in the majors, too.

DAZZLING DIAMONDACK

Arizona lefty Robbie Ray is 5-0 with a 0.24 ERA in his last five starts. He’ll try to give the Diamondbacks their seventh straight win when he pitches at Philadelphia.
