World Sports in 60 Seconds for Tuesday, August fourth.

In tennis, Philippines’ Alexandra Eala wins her first W.T.A. title at the rain-delayed Mubadala D.C. Open, rallying past Jessica Pegula four-six, six-four, six-love to become the first Filipino tour singles champion, while Taylor Fritz takes the men’s crown over Rafael Jodar. And in M.L.B., Alec Burleson hits three two-run homers as St. Louis outslugs the Yankees thirteen to seven in the Bronx after blowing a six-run lead.
