Brewers 9, A’s 5

  • Milwaukee used a three-run second inning to take the lead and secure the series win after taking the first two games in Oakland. Jake Bauers hit a two-run homer and scored three times to lead the charge for the Brewers.

Diamondbacks 4, Red Sox 1 

  • The Diamondbacks won their fifth straight game on the back of a two-hit, six-inning outing with nine strikeouts from Zac Gallen. Eugenio Suarez hit a double in the fourth that scored two and gave Arizona the lead.

Braves 4, Nationals 2

  • Travis d’Arnaud gave the Braves the lead with a single in the sixth and hit a solo homer in the eighth to give Atlanta some insurance. Orlando Arcia hit a solo home run of his own, and the Braves won their sixth in the last seven games. Atlanta trails the Phillies by five games in the NL East.

Mets 7, Padres 1 

  • Francisco Lindor hit a grand slam and a solo home run for the Mets who have won three of four. David Peterson allowed one run in seven and a third to shut down the hot Padres offense. New York is just two and a half games out of the last NL wild card spot.

Rays 9, Dodgers 8
