The Giants won the final two games of the three-game series.
They snapped a five-game losing streak Tuesday by earning a
roller-coaster 13-12 win in which they blew a six-run lead and
overcame deficits in the eighth and ninth innings.
The series loss was just the second of the season for the Mets,
whose team-record streak of 14 consecutive wins following a loss
ended. It was tied for the third-longest such streak in major
league history.
Longoria, who didn't debut until May 11 while recovering from
surgery on his right index finger, hit a three-run homer with
one out in the first against Thomas Szapucki (0-1), who was
making his first major league start. Joc Pederson, who had a
career-high three homers and eight RBIs on Tuesday, hit a
two-run homer two batters later.
Yankees 2, Orioles 0
JP Sears pitched five effective innings in his first career
start and combined with four relievers on a five-hitter as host
New York beat Baltimore.
The Yankees won for the 13th time in 19 games during a stretch
of playing 23 games in 22 days and did so after putting
Giancarlo Stanton (right ankle inflammation) and Jonathan
Loaisiga (right shoulder inflammation) on the injured list
shortly before the game.
Sears (2-0) allowed three singles, struck out five and walked
two. Ron Marinaccio, Lucas Luetge, Miguel Castro and Clay Holmes
finished up, completing New York's fifth shutout of the season.
Pirates 10, Rockies 5
Jack Suwinski and Josh VanMeter hit three-run homers as
Pittsburgh erased a four-run deficit to beat visiting Colorado.
Suwinski also scored twice, walked and stole a base while
VanMeter went 2-for-4. Ben Gamel added a pair of RBI singles and
Cal Mitchell had an RBI double for the Pirates, who took two of
three in the series.
C.J. Cron hit a solo homer, Randal Grichuk added a two-run
double and an RBI single, and Brian Serven had an RBI single for
the Rockies. Colorado starter Ryan Feltner allowed two runs and
three hits in five innings, with seven strikeouts in a
no-decision.
Tigers 4, Twins 2 (10 innings)
Jeimer Candelario hit a two-run homer with one out in the 10th
as Detroit ended host Minnesota's' six-game winning streak.
Candelario's fourth homer of the season came on the first pitch
he saw from Trevor Megill (0-1). Harold Castro hit two solo home
runs for the Tigers.
The Twins loaded the bases with none out in the bottom of the
10th against Michael Fulmer. Carlos Correa then struck out
before Andrew Chafin replaced Fulmer. Chafin earned his first
save by striking out Max Kepler and inducing Gary Sanchez to
foul out. Trevor Larnach hit a two-run homer for Minnesota in
the fourth.
Nationals 1, Dodgers 0
Erick Fedde scattered four hits over six innings and Cesar
Hernandez had a run-scoring single as Washington avoided being
swept by visiting Los Angeles with a win.
Fedde (3-3) had six strikeouts and a walk to lead Washington to
just its third win in its past 10 games. The Nats ended a
nine-game losing streak to the Dodgers.
The Dodgers, who were blanked for the first time this season,
lost for just the second time in their past 11 contests after
winning the first two games of the series by a combined score of
19-5.
Astros 2, Guardians 1
Cristian Javier matched a career high with nine strikeouts as
Houston capped a 5-2 homestand with a victory over Cleveland.
Javier (3-2) fired 5 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing three hits
and one walk and leading the Astros to victory in the rubber
match of a three-game series.
Michael Brantley and Jason Castro hit sacrifice flies to account
for Houston's runs. The Guardians' run came on a wild pitch from
Hector Neris. Cleveland starter Cal Quantrill (1-3) gave up two
runs in six innings.
Brewers 2, Padres 1
Milwaukee pushed across two runs against Yu Darvish in the top
of the seventh to defeat host San Diego in the rubber match of a
three-game series.
Darvish (4-2) was working on a one-hit shutout when he walked
Luis Urias to open the seventh. After Christian Yelich flew out
to center, Andrew McCutchen singled and Rowdy Tellez followed
with an opposite-field double to left that scored Urias to tie
the game. Tyrone Taylor then hit a sacrifice fly to the warning
track, easily scoring McCutchen to break the tie.
It was the sixth RBI of the series for Taylor, who has 18 RBIs
all season. Darvish allowed the two runs on three hits and two
walks, with seven strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings.
A's 4, Mariners 2
Paul Blackburn allowed only one hit in 5 1/3 scoreless innings
as Oakland defeated host Seattle.
Seth Brown and Elvis Andrus homered for the A's. Blackburn (5-0)
lowered his ERA to 1.70, walking five and striking out two. Dany
Jimenez pitched a 1-2-3 ninth to earn his 10th save of the
season.
Mariners left-hander Robbie Ray (4-5) took the loss. Ray gave up
three runs on seven hits in six innings. He walked one and
matched a season-high with 10 strikeouts.
Reds 4, Cubs 3
Joey Votto homered, tripled and drove in three runs as
Cincinnati edged visiting Chicago in the third game of a
four-game series. Votto continued his mastery of Cubs starter
Kyle Hendricks (2-5). The Chicago right-hander has now allowed
five homers to Votto, the most he's yielded to any major league
hitter.
Reds center fielder Nick Senzel made a pair of outstanding plays
in the field, including a leaping grab of a line drive off the
bat of pinch hitter Willson Contreras with two runners on in the
ninth to preserve the lead.
Hendricks was pulled after four innings. He gave up four runs on
five hits with one walk and one strikeout.
Rays 5, Marlins 4
Harold Ramirez's mammoth two-run homer capped Tampa Bay's
five-run first inning as the Rays swept their two-game series
with visiting Miami. With the Rays already up 3-0, Ramirez
finished the offensive outburst by slamming a first-pitch
hanging slider from starter Cody Poteet (0-1) with an exit
velocity of 110.2 mph.
Wander Franco went 2-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI for the
Rays, who scratched out just six hits but recorded their 17th
win in the past 19 games against Miami in the Citrus Series.
Rays starter Drew Rasmussen (5-1) allowed three runs and six
hits in five innings. He fanned seven and walked two.
Jorge Soler belted a solo homer, Jacob Stallings had a double
that drove in two runs and Brian Anderson was 2-for-2 with two
walks for the Marlins.
Rangers 7, Angels 2
Mitch Garver and Kole Calhoun homered and Glenn Otto threw five
effective innings to lead Texas to a victory over Los Angeles in
Anaheim, Calif.
Garver and Calhoun both have been hot lately -- Garver has
homered in three consecutive games and Calhoun has six long
balls in his past 10 games. Calhoun also singled, doubled,
scored three runs and drove in two.
Angeles starter Reid Detmers (2-2) exited after allowing a
leadoff single to Calhoun in the seventh. Detmers yielded five
runs on five hits and a walk with three strikeouts.
White Sox 3, Red Sox 1
Jake Burger launched a go-ahead, three-run home run in the fifth
inning and Lucas Giolito pitched six innings of one-run ball to
boost host Chicago past Boston.
Chicago stopped Boston's season-high six-game winning streak
behind a resilient attack and a sharp outing from Giolito, who
spaced five hits, four walks and seven strikeouts to earn his
third victory in four May starts.
Rich Hill fell to 1-2 after yielding three runs, two earned, and
two hits in five innings with one walk and one strikeout for
Boston.
Braves 8, Phillies 4
Dansby Swanson had the third four-hit game of his career,
including a home run, and Atlanta outslugged visiting
Philadelphia.
Swanson went 4-for-5 and extended his hitting streak to eight
games. He scored two runs and drove in two. He is 9-for-13
(.692) in the first three games of the four-game series and is
14-for-32 (.438) with two homers, four runs and seven RBIs
during his hitting streak.
The winning pitcher was Spencer Strider (1-1), who tossed 2 2/3
innings of scoreless, hitless relief, striking out five and
walking two. Phillies starter Ranger Suarez (4-3) took the loss.
