Eugenio Suarez hit a three-run homer and Carlos Santana hit a
solo shot before Cole could record an out in the first, and
Jarred Kelenic added a two-run shot after Cole got the first
out.
Jesse Winker added a homer in the seventh as Seattle tied a
season best with four homers. The early power display was more
than enough for Castillo (5-4), who was acquired from the
Cincinnati Reds for four prospects on Friday. Castillo allowed
three runs and five hits and three walks while striking out
eight.
Cole (9-4) allowed six runs on seven hits in six innings as
Seattle won a series from the Yankees for the first time since
April 2016.
Rays 3, Blue Jays 2
Recent acquisitions David Peralta and Jose Siri provided just
enough offense to lift Tampa Bay to a win over Toronto in St.
Petersburg, Fla.
Peralta and Siri, a pair of outfielders acquired just before
Tuesday's trade deadline, each came through with a single in the
sixth inning. Siri led off the inning with a single, stole
second base and came around to score on the base hit from
Peralta, who went 2-for-4 in the game.
Ryan Thompson (3-2) threw two scoreless innings for the win, and
Jason Adam fanned two in the ninth for his fifth save. Teoscar
Hernandez homered and doubled for the Blue Jays.
Phillies 3, Braves 1
Nick Castellanos ended a month-long homerless streak with a
two-run shot to highlight a three-run eighth-inning rally that
helped visiting Philadelphia beat Atlanta to earn a split of a
two-game series.
Castellanos had not homered since June 30, but he teed off on
reliever Collin McHugh with a long shot to straightaway center
field. The win evened the season series at 6-6 and ended
Atlanta's four-game winning streak.
The rally made a winner out of Zack Wheeler (10-5), who pitched
seven innings and allowed one run on five hits with seven
strikeouts. His only mistake was a two-out solo homer to Orlando
Arcia in the fifth.
Guardians 7, Diamondbacks 4
Amed Rosario and Oscar Gonzalez both homered and combined for
five RBIs as Cleveland beat visiting Arizona in the rubber match
of a three-game series.

runs on four hits with eight strikeouts and no walks over six
innings. The Guardians have won 11 of their past 17 games.
Alek Thomas homered among his two hits and had two RBIs for the
Diamondbacks, who concluded their six-game road trip with a 1-5
mark. Geraldo Perdomo hit a two-run homer with two outs in the
ninth against Eli Morgan before pinch hitter Seth Beer struck
out to end the game.
Twins 4, Tigers 1
Sandy Leon drove in two runs and Jorge Lopez collected a save in
their debuts with their new team as Minnesota defeated Detroit
in Minneapolis.
Leon, who had two hits, was acquired from Cleveland on Tuesday.

Guardians this season. Lopez, acquired Tuesday from Baltimore to
become Minnesota's closer, retired all three batters he faced
for his 20th save.
Tigers starter Tyler Alexander (2-5) gave up two runs and two
hits while striking out five in five innings. Harold Castro had
three hits and Riley Greene drove in the Tigers' lone run.
Detroit batters struck out 14 times.
Orioles 6, Rangers 3
Robinson Chirinos homered and added an RBI single as Baltimore
produced big late-game offense to defeat Texas and complete a
three-game sweep at Arlington, Texas.
The Orioles scored in each of the last three innings to keep the
Rangers winless in three home games since the All-Star break.
Ryan McKenna also homered for the Orioles. Cionel Perez (6-1),
the fourth of five pitchers used by Baltimore, was the winner
with 1 1/3 innings of hitless relief.
Jonah Heim and Marcus Semien hit home runs for the Rangers. Jose
Leclerc (0-1) took the loss.
White Sox 4, Royals 1
Jose Abreu homered for the second straight game and Lance Lynn
pitched six strong innings to lift host Chicago to a victory
against Kansas City.
Chicago's Eloy Jimenez extended his hitting streak to a
season-high nine games, finishing 3-for-4 with three singles.
Jimenez had four multi-hit games over the past week to help the
White Sox to a 4-2 homestand against Oakland and Kansas City.
Bobby Witt Jr. cracked a solo home run in the sixth to open the
scoring for Kansas City and trim the deficit to three runs. He
finished with two hits for the Royals, who have lost seven of
their past nine.
Astros 6, Red Sox 1
Jose Urquidy allowed two hits over seven shutout innings to lead
Houston to a win against visiting Boston.

hit a two-run homer in his second at-bat with the Astros after
being acquired from Baltimore.

Reese McGuire had two hits in his first game for Boston since he
was traded from the Chicago White Sox on Monday.
Mets 9, Nationals 5
Daniel Vogelbach hit a grand slam, Chris Bassitt tossed seven
scoreless innings and New York routed host Washington to take
the rubber game of the three-game series.

connected off reliever Jordan Weems in the fifth inning for his
first homer as a Met. Pete Alonso also went deep, Jeff McNeil
had three doubles and Brandon Nimmo had three hits for the Mets.

four.

was roughed up in his Mets debut.

Sandy Alcantara pitched a six-hitter and Luke Williams stole
three bases as host Miami snapped a five-game losing streak by
beating Cincinnati.
Alcantara (10-4) reached his career high in wins. The Marlins
right-hander allowed just one walk, striking out three batters
in his third career shutout and lowered his National
League-leading ERA to 1.88. Williams went 3-for-3, Jesus Aguilar
homered and Garrett Cooper added a two-run double.
