Judge joined Babe Ruth (60 in 1927) and Roger Maris (61 in 1961)
as the third AL player to reach 60 when he drove a 3-1 sinker
about halfway up the left field bleachers. The Yankees won it
four batters later when Giancarlo Stanton hit a game-ending
grand slam off Wil Crowe (5-10), who also served up Judge's
blast.
Judge took a curtain call for the 430-foot drive, which came
after the Pirates had scored four in the eighth off Jonathan
Loaisiga and Clay Holmes to take an 8-4 lead.
Bryan Reynolds hit a tying homer in the seventh off Lou Trivino,
then gave the Pirates a 5-4 edge with an eighth-inning single
off Loaisiga. Rodolfo Castro followed with a three-run homer off
Holmes that put Pittsburgh ahead 8-4, but Aroldis Chapman (3-3)
tossed a 1-2-3 ninth to set it up for New York's 15th walk-off
win.
Braves 3, Nationals 2
Travis d'Arnaud and Dansby Swanson hit home runs and Charlie
Morton pitched 5 1/3 strong innings to lift Atlanta over
visiting Washington.
Atlanta clinched a playoff spot later Tuesday when the New York
Mets beat the Milwaukee Brewers. The Braves have won 10 straight
games at home, the longest streak since they set the modern-era
club record of 13 straight in 2019.
Morton (9-6) yielded one run on three hits and three walks with
nine strikeouts. Kenley Jansen allowed an unearned run in the
ninth but still logged his 36th save.

Francisco Lindor's seventh-inning grand slam completed a
comeback from a four-run deficit as visiting New York beat
Milwaukee.

from a 4-0 hole by the Mets, who won their sixth straight game
to remain one game behind the Braves in the National League
East.
Willy Adames went 4-for-5 and knocked in two runs for the
Brewers, who remained 2 1/2 games behind the Philadelphia
Phillies in the race for the third and final NL wild-card spot.

Myles Straw delivered a two-run double in the 11th inning to

American League Central lead over the second-place White Sox to
five games.

11th, and three RBIs for the White Sox. Elvis Andrus went
2-for-5 with two runs.
Dodgers 6, Diamondbacks 5 (Game 1)
Austin Barnes belted a two-run home run and Miguel Vargas
singled home the go-ahead run during a five-run eighth inning as
Los Angeles rallied for a victory over visiting Arizona in the
opener of a split doubleheader.

(3-0) pitched three scoreless innings before Chris Martin
retired the D-backs in order in the ninth for his second save.
Daulton Varsho and Christian Walker homered for the
Diamondbacks.
Diamondbacks 5, Dodgers 2 (Game 2)
Drey Jameson gave up two runs over six innings in his second
career start and visiting Arizona earned a doubleheader split by
beating Los Angeles in Game 2.
Arizona took advantage of a season-high four Dodgers errors to
score three unearned runs. Ketel Marte homered for the
Diamondbacks, who won for the second time in their last 22 games
at Los Angeles. Jameson (2-0) gave up seven hits with one walk
and seven strikeouts.
Max Muncy hit a two-run home run for the Dodgers, who lost to
Arizona at home for the first time in seven games this season.
Los Angeles is now 13-4 against Arizona.

J.D. Martinez homered, tripled and drove in two runs and Rafael
Devers smacked a two-run homer to lead Boston Red over host
Cincinnati.
Rob Refsnyder hit the tiebreaking homer in the fourth inning for
the Red Sox, who won for the third time in the past four games.
TJ Friedl homered, and Jake Fraley and Donovan Solano each had
three hits for the Reds. Cincinnati, which has dropped 10 of its
past 12 games, lost Nick Senzel for the season when he broke a
toe on a play at the outfield wall.
Padres 5, Cardinals 0
Mike Clevinger became the third straight Padres starter to
record a scoreless outing as San Diego defeated visiting St.
Louis.
The Padres earned a fourth straight win to strengthen their hold
on a National League wild-card berth as both Philadelphia and
Milwaukee lost. Clevinger (6-7) gave up three hits in 5 2/3
innings.
Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright (11-10) allowed four runs on
six hits in six innings. Albert Pujols went 2-for-3 with a walk
but remained at 698 career homers.

David Bote homered to tie the score in the seventh inning and
lofted a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the eighth as visiting

play the rubber game of this series on Wednesday. Miami won the
opener 10-3 on Monday.
Cubs second baseman Esteban Quiroz, 30, made his first major
league start and got his first hit, a ground-ball single to
center in the first inning. He finished 2-for-3, including a key
bunt in the eighth.
Astros 5, Rays 0
Jeremy Pena bashed a three-run home run off ace Shane McClanahan
as the Astros fired a second straight shutout of Tampa Bay,
winning in St. Petersburg, Fla.
Pena and Jose Altuve each had two hits and a walk as the Astros
won for the ninth time in 10 games. Houston starter Cristian
Javier (10-9) allowed just one hit in five innings.
The Rays got three hits and two walks from Wander Franco. In his
second start since coming off the injured list, McClanahan
pitched four-plus innings but was removed after landing hard on
a delivery and then shaking his left arm in the fifth.
A's 4, Mariners 1
JP Sears combined with four relievers on a one-hitter, Tony Kemp
blasted a three-run, go-ahead home run, and Oakland stalled
visiting Seattle's pursuit of an American League wild-card
berth.
Sears (6-2) gave up Carlos Santana's second-inning infield
single, and it led to a run. He lasted five innings. Joel
Payamps, A.J. Puk, Tyler Cyr and Domingo Acevedo each pitched a
hitless inning to complete the gem, with Acevedo earning his
third save.
Kemp and Nick Allen finished with two hits apiece for the A's.

in September, opened the scoring with three runs in the second
inning.

win. Scott Barlow recorded five outs for his 22nd save in 26
chances. Michael Fulmer (5-6) took the loss.

two. Baltimore starter Austin Voth (5-3) allowed two runs and
six hits in five innings.

of the series until Gunnar Henderson's two-run homer with two
outs in the seventh off reliever Joe Jimenez.
Angels 5, Rangers 2
Matt Duffy had three hits, including a two-run home run, and
Taylor Ward drove in a run, scored twice and had two hits as Los
Angeles defeated Texas in Arlington, Texas.
The Angels broke a 2-2 tie with a three-run sixth inning.
However, it was the Rangers who had the highlight play of the
night, turning a triple play in the same frame.

runs on seven hits. Dennis Santana (3-8) recorded just one out
and gave up three runs on three hits.

hits each and San Francisco beat Colorado in Denver.

slated to start for the Giants, but a blister on his pitching
hand pushed him back to Friday night.
C.J. Cron homered among his three hits and Alan Trejo had two
hits for Colorado. Rockies starter Kyle Freeland (9-10) left
after allowing three runs -- two earned -- on five hits over six
innings.
