CLEVELAND (AP) — Kyle Manzardo had his second career two-homer game and drove in three runs, Brayan Rocchio hit a two-run triple, and the Cleveland Guardians rolled to a 10-4 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night.
Manzardo hit a two-run shot off Rockies starter Tanner Gordon (2-3) in the third inning and a solo homer against Jimmy Herget in the sixth. His other two-homer game occurred last Sept. 1 against Pittsburgh.
Gabriel Arias added a two-run single and José RamÃrez and Bo Naylor scored two runs apiece for the Guardians, who are 3 1/2 games out of the final American League wild-card spot with Thursday’s trade deadline looming.
Logan Allen (7-9) worked seven innings and allowed two runs on homers by Jordan Beck and Michael Toglia. The left-hander threw a career-high 113 pitches and matched his longest outing, winning for the second time in his last seven decisions.
TIGERS 12, DIAMONDBACKS 2
DETROIT (AP) — Riley Greene hit one of Detroit’s three homers in a six-run fifth inning, and the Tigers went on to beat Arizona.
Greene had three hits, scored three times and drove in three runs. Wenceel Pérez had three hits, stole two bases and scored four times.
The Tigers have won three straight after losing 12 of 13. Arizona has lost six of seven.
The game was tied at 2 before the Tigers scored nine runs in the fifth and sixth innings.
After Brandon Pfaadt (10-7) retired the leadoff hitter in the fifth, Gleyber Torres put the Tigers ahead 3-2 with a homer to right. Kerry Carpenter singled and Greene hit his 26th homer to make it 5-2.
YANKEES 7, RAYS 5
NEW YORK (AP) — Cody Bellinger hit a three-run homer, Anthony Volpe also went deep and New York erased an early deficit a victory over Tampa.
Max Fried recovered from a rough start and threw a career-high 111 pitches in 6 2/3 innings. Volpe delivered a tiebreaking single in the fourth and launched a 452-foot homer to center field in the eighth, the longest of his career.
He also committed two throwing errors at shortstop, the second one on a play that should have ended the game. That gave Tampa Bay another chance before Devin Williams whiffed All-Star Jonathan Aranda with runners at second and third for the final out.
New York pulled within four games of first-place ÎÚÑ»´«Ã½ in the AL East after falling 6 1/2 back last weekend.
Fried (12-4) allowed four runs — two earned — and four hits while surpassing his previous career high of 110 pitches for Atlanta at Philadelphia in September 2022.
DODGERS 5, REDS 4
CINCINNATI (AP) — Will Smith had an RBI double in the ninth inning as Los Angeles rallied for a over Cincinnati.
Shohei Ohtani struck out four times in a major league game for the sixth time, but it was the first time it happened in his first four at-bats. The reigning NL MVP also had a nine-game hitting streak snapped.
The Dodgers got three hits from Freddie Freeman, including a game-tying RBI single in the seventh inning, and Tommy Edman had a two-run homer in the first inning.
Former Cincinnati closer Alexis DÃaz (1-0), who was dealt to the Dodgers on May 29, pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings.
Jake Fraley and Noelvi Marte homered for the Reds, who have dropped their last two games after winning four straight. Fraley had a two-run shot to right in the fourth inning tie it at 2-all and Marte followed two batters later with a drive to right to give Cincinnati the lead.
Michael Conforto drew a walk off Emilio Pagán (2-3) to lead off the ninth. James Outman came on as a pinch-runner and scored when Smith lined a double off the left-field wall with two outs.
Alex Vesia retired the Reds in order in the ninth for his fourth save.
PHILLIES 6, WHITE SOX 3
CHICAGO (AP) — Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run homer, Jesús Luzardo pitched seven sparkling innings and Philadelphia beat Chicago.
Brandon Marsh also hit a two-run drive for Philadelphia, which bounced back nicely on Monday night. Schwarber, Marsh and Trea Turner each had two hits.
Luzardo (9-5) allowed two hits, struck out four and walked one.
The White Sox scored three times in the ninth against Daniel Robert. Colson Montgomery had a run-scoring groundout, and Lenyn Sosa connected for a two-run homer.
ORIOLES 16, BLUE JAYS 4, 1ST GAME
ORIOLES 3, BLUE JAYS 2, 2ND GAME
BALTIMORE (AP) — Adley Rutschman doubled home the tiebreaking run in the bottom of the eighth inning, and Baltimore completed a doubleheader sweep of ÎÚÑ»´«Ã½.
With Gunnar Henderson on second and one out, Rutschman lifted a drive to right off Jeff Hoffman (6-4) that Nathan Lukes tried to catch against the big wall in right field at Camden Yards. Lukes reached for the ball and initially seemed unsure of where it ended up, only to find it down at his feet.
Andrew Kittredge (2-2) won in relief, and Corbin Martin worked out of a ninth-inning jam for his first career save. The last-place Orioles have dealt away several relievers recently — including between games of this doubleheader and pitched a scoreless seventh in the nightcap.
The Blue Jays had men on second and third against Martin with one out, but Lukes struck out looking and Bo Bichette went down swinging.
Baltimore 16-4.
