The crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium saw something they haven’t seen before on Wednesday night.

Looking winded in the Flushing heat stood a wavering Novak Djokovic.

In just 90 minutes, the second-round match against Laslo Djere had only completed 14 games.



Fans watched the defending U.S. Open champion take several measures to battle the heat during the changeovers, using ice across his shoulders, changing shirts, and also getting a massage from a trainer on his rib cage after appearing disheveled.

The Rays outrighted Brantly to Triple-A Durham on Monday. While Ben Rortvedt was on the paternity list last week, the Rays briefly added Brantly to the 40-man roster and had him serve as the No. 2 catcher for the big club behind Alex Jackson. Before the Rays cast him off the 40-man roster when Rortvedt rejoined the team Saturday, Brantly went 1-for-9 while appearing in three games, marking his first big-league action since the 2022 campaign. The 35-year-old backstop will now head back to Durham, but he could get another call-up in September if Rortvedt or Jackson misses time or if the Rays want to carry a third catcher.
