Ramirez had three hits, including two doubles, and drove in two. Otto Lopez homered and drove in three while extending his hitting streak to nine games, during which he is 16 of 37 with 13 RBIs. Lopez homered in a three-run eighth to start the Marlins’ comeback that made it 7-6, and Miami tied it in the ninth off Shelby Miller, who blew his fifth save.
Ketel Marte hit a three-run homer and drove in four, Geraldo Perdomo had three hits and scored twice and James McCann had two hits and an RBI for the Diamondbacks, who have lost three in a row.
Anthony Bender (2-5) retired all six batters that he faced for the win. Juan Morillo (0-2) gave up Ramirez’s leadoff single in the 10th that scored automatic runner Lopez.
Tigers 10, Twins 5
Gleyber Torres hit one of Detroit’s four homers — a two-run shot — as the Tigers slugged their way past visiting Minnesota.
Riley Greene, Kerry Carpenter and Zach McKinstry supplied solo blasts for Detroit. Wenceel Perez added a two-run double, and Colt Keith chipped in two hits and an RBI. Starting pitcher Casey Mize (8-2) limited the Twins to two runs and five hits with five strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings.
Minnesota starter Bailey Ober got roughed up once again, allowing seven runs — including four homers — and 11 hits in 5 2/3 innings. Ober (4-6) lost all five of his June starts while surrendering 14 homers. Byron Buxton had three hits, including a two-run homer, and scored twice for the Twins.
Athletics 7, Yankees 0
JP Sears pitched 5 2/3 strong innings for his first win against his former team and the visiting Athletics earned a victory over New York.
Brent Rooker hit a solo homer and rookie Nick Kurtz hit a three-run homer off the Yankees’ Clarke Schmidt (4-4) as the A’s beat the Yankees for only the third time in their past 14 trips to New York.
Sears (6-7) earned the win after entering 0-4 with a 5.74 ERA in six career starts against the Yankees, who traded him to the A’s at the 2022 trade deadline in the deal for Frankie Montas. Sears struck out three, walked three and got eight outs on fly balls.
Braves 6, Phillies 1
Spencer Schwellenbach set a career high with 12 strikeouts and Sean Murphy hit a grand slam to lead host Atlanta to a win over Philadelphia to end its three-game losing streak.
The win squared the three-game series and evened the season series between the teams at 4-4. Schwellenbach (7-4) pitched seven innings and allowed one run on three hits. In five career starts against Phillies, Schwellenbach is 3-0 with a 2.01 ERA. The Atlanta bullpen completed the game. Raisel Iglesias struck out two while working a scoreless eighth and Rafael Montero pitched a perfect ninth inning.
Philadelphia starter Jesus Luzardo (7-4) pitched five innings and allowed two runs on seven hits and three walks with seven strikeouts.

Hayes’ RBI single in the bottom of the second drove home Joey Bart, who also had two hits, to highlight a three-run inning and propelled Pittsburgh to its second win in as many games over the Mets, who have lost 12 of their past 15. It was the second consecutive game the Pirates scored three or more runs in the second inning.
New York’s Pete Alonso doubled with one out off Braxton Ashcraft in the fifth and scored on Brandon Nimmo’s single to cut the Pirates’ lead to 3-2. Nimmo had two hits and an RBI, and Alonso had two hits to lead the Mets.
Rays 11, Orioles 3
Jonathan Aranda smacked a two-run home run and Yandy Diaz had a three-run blast to support stellar pitching from Zack Littell in Tampa Bay’s romp over host Baltimore.
Littell (7-7) avenged a June 17 home loss to Baltimore, striking out five and limiting the Orioles to three hits in seven innings. Jake Mangum had three hits for the Rays, while Josh Lowe, Diaz, Junior Caminero and Chandler Simpson all had two hits. Matt Thais provided a two-run triple and Taylor Walls also knocked in two runs.
Baltimore starter Zach Eflin (6-5) pitched just one inning, giving up four runs on five hits against his former team. At the plate for the Orioles, Chadwick Tromp’s two-out solo home run in the fifth inning broke up the shutout bid. Ramon Laureano added a two-run shot in the ninth.
Rangers 3, Mariners 2 (10 innings)
Marcus Semien’s bases-loaded single to right field scored Alejandro Osuna with the winning run as Texas defeated visiting Seattle in the second of a three-game series.
Semien’s decisive single — the sixth walk-off hit of his career — came off Mariners closer Andres Munoz after Munoz hit Josh Smith with a pitch and walked Corey Seager to load the bases. Semien worked the count to full and fouled off two 100-mph pitches before pushing his single past second base in Seattle’s drawn-in infield. Shawn Armstrong was the beneficiary of the Rangers’ uprising, earning the win after striking out two in a perfect 10th inning.
Dominic Canzone ripped a solo home run to right field in the third inning for Seattle. Starter Bryan Woo allowed two runs (neither earned) on five hits over six innings and remains the only pitcher in the majors to have gone at least six frames in every one of his 16 starts this season.
Red Sox 15, Blue Jays 1
Wilyer Abreu hit a three-run home run and Lucas Giolito pitched seven strong innings as Boston ended a six-game losing streak by routing visiting Toronto.

Abreu’s 14th home run of the season came in the first inning off Blue Jays starting pitcher Chris Bassitt, who went on to allow nine runs (eight earned) on eight hits in two innings. Addison Barger collected Toronto’s lone RBI on a single that drove in Myles Straw.

Padres 6, Reds 4
Gavin Sheets hit a three-run home run and two doubles to lead visiting San Diego to a 6-4 win over Cincinnati.
Sheets deposited his 13th home run into the right field bleachers to give the Padres, who have now won five of their last seven, the lead for good. San Diego starter Randy Vazquez gave up four runs on nine hits in 4 1/3 innings. Bryan Hoeing (1-0, 0.00 ERA) picked up the win in relief, allowing no runs in 1 2/3 innings.

St. Louis right-hander Matt Svanson (1-0) pitched a scoreless fifth for his first major league victory and Ryan Helsley tossed the ninth for his 100th career save and his 16th of the season. Willson Contreras homered in the ninth and Masyn Winn had three hits for the guests.
Royals 9, Dodgers 5
Kansas City’s offense woke up after Shohei Ohtani exited from tossing two scoreless innings and the Royals snapped their 11-game home losing skid in beating Los Angeles.
Vinnie Pasquantino led Kansas City with a three-run homer and five RBIs. Bobby Witt Jr. and Jonathan India each had four hits for the Royals, who scored one more run than they did while losing their previous six games combined. Starter Seth Lugo (5-5) allowed four hits and five walks while striking out eight over 5 2/3 scoreless innings.
Freddie Freeman had three hits, including a solo homer in the 7th inning, but the potent Dodgers did not threaten until a four-run ninth. After going an inning in each of his first two 2025 starts, Ohtani was stretched to two innings Saturday. He allowed two baserunners in the first inning, then retired the side in the second, completing his 27-pitch performance. He went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts at the plate.
Brewers 5, Rockies 0
Quinn Priester struck out a career-high 11 over seven innings of one-hit ball, Joey Ortiz homered and host Milwaukee shut out Colorado.
Brice Turang had three hits and drove in a pair of runs, while Jackson Chourio and Caleb Durbin contributed two hits apiece for the Brewers, who have won four straight and 11 of their last 14 games. Priester (6-2) allowed just one baserunner through the first four innings — a two-out walk to Ryan Ritter in the third — and didn’t give up a hit until Michael Toglia’s single with one out in the fifth.
The Rockies have continued their pace for the most losses in a season in the modern era (since 1901). Colorado suffered its ninth shutout of the season and has lost eight of its last nine since a season-high four-game winning streak.
Cubs 12, Astros 3
Kyle Tucker drilled a three-run home run in the fourth inning, the third homer slugged by Chicago in that frame en route to a victory over host Houston. Tucker finished 4-for-5 with four runs scored and three RBIs in his second game against his former club. He spent seven seasons with Houston before an offseason trade.
Michael Busch and Nico Hoerner clubbed back-to-back homers off Astros starter Lance McCullers Jr. (1-3) to push the Cubs to a 3-2 lead. McCullers allowed eight runs on seven hits and four walks with one strikeout over 3 1/3 innings.
