Top: It's a crowded leaderboard right now at the U.S. Open, and these two are among the contenders. Paul Casey (left) is in a four-way tie for first place at -7 after a roller coaster Round 2. Casey had two bogeys and a double bogey during a four-hole stretch on the back nine, but he bounced back with a string of five consecutive birdies for a round of 71. Meanwhile, Rickie Fowler (right), who carded a 65 in Round 1 at Erin Hills, began to struggle on the back nine Friday and finished with a 73. However, Fowler enters the weekend just one shot back at -6. Photos byUSA Today

The run scored off Yankees reliever Jonathan Holder, who has been part of a bullpen that's been struggling since closer Aroldis Chapman went on the DL. The A's defeated the Yanks 7-6, handing the Bronx Bombers their season-high fourth straight loss. Photo by Bay Area News Group
