MLB roundup: Patrick Bailey’s walk-off 3-run, inside-the-park HR lifts Giants

Patrick Bailey bounced a three-run, inside-the-park home run high off the right-field wall with one out in the last of the ninth inning Tuesday night, delivering the San Francisco Giants a 4-3 walk-off victory over the visiting Philadelphia Phillies.
A two-run home run by Kyle Schwarber had given the Phillies a 3-1 lead in the seventh, an advantage the Philadelphia bullpen carried into the ninth.
The catcher easily circled the bases to complete the Giants’ ninth walk-off win of the season and give San Francisco a fourth straight victory. Ryan Walker (2-3), who needed just one pitch to get the final out in the top of the ninth, was credited with the win.
Blue Jays 6, White Sox 1 (rain-shortened)
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had two hits and two RBIs, Davis Schneider homered and Chris Bassitt pitched six sharp innings as Toronto pushed their winning streak to 10 games with a rain-shortened victory over host Chicago. The game was called following a one-hour, 24-minute rain delay with the Blue Jays batting in the top of the seventh.
A five-run third inning against White Sox starter Aaron Civale (1-6) proved the difference for Toronto. Schneider started the rally with a leadoff home run before Guerrero drove in his first run with an RBI double. George Springer, Kirk and Loperfido had two hits apiece for Toronto. That was ample support for Bassitt (9-4).
Josh Rojas homered in the sixth for the lone White Sox run. Reinstated from the 10-day injured list before the game, Chicago center fielder Luis Robert Jr. (strained left hamstring) went 1-for-2.
Tigers 4, Rays 2
Colt Keith hit a tiebreaking two-run homer in the seventh and host Detroit stretched its winning streak to five games with a victory over Tampa Bay.
Keith also had an RBI single for the Tigers, who will go for a three-game sweep Wednesday afternoon. Spencer Torkelson homered for the other Detroit run.
Starting pitcher Jack Flaherty gave up two runs in 6 1/3 innings and struck out eight. Tommy Kahnle (1-1) got two outs and picked up the win. Will Vest struck out three in the ninth for his 15th save.
Rays starter Ryan Pepiot gave up two runs in six innings with six strikeouts. Jonathan Aranda homered and scored both Tampa Bay runs.
Yankees 10, Mariners 3
Giancarlo Stanton hit a three-run homer in the sixth inning, Aaron Judge added his 34th homer an inning later and New York roughed up Logan Gilbert after a rain delay in a victory over visiting Seattle.
Austin Wells homered for the third straight game, hitting a two-run shot in a sixth in which the Yankees sent eight men to the plate and knocked out Gilbert (2-3). Cody Bellinger contributed three hits to extend his hitting streak to 13 games. Yankees rookie Will Warren (6-4) allowed four hits in 5 2/3 scoreless innings.
Julio Rodriguez hit an RBI double and Cal Raleigh hit his major league-leading 36th homer in the eighth for the Mariners, who lost for just the third time in nine games.
Padres 1, Diamondbacks 0
Luis Arraez homered in the seventh inning to break up a scoreless tie and five San Diego Padres pitchers combined on a three-hit shutout in a win over visiting Arizona.
Arraez lashed a 2-0 fastball from Merrill Kelly (7-5) an estimated 358 feet into the seats in right field for his fifth homer of the year. It was just one of four hits Kelly allowed over seven innings; he walked none and fanned four.
Kelly, however, was tagged with the loss as Nick Pivetta and four relievers won a classic pitcher’s duel, aided by a pair of home-run-robbing grabs that denied Arizona four runs.
Marlins 12, Reds 2
Xavier Edwards had two hits and three RBIs for visiting Miami in their win over Cincinnati.
Jesus Sanchez, Agustin Ramirez and Heriberto Hernandez also had two hits each, Kyle Stowers and Dane Myers both had two RBIs and Ramirez, Connor Norby and Liam Hicks each scored twice for the Marlins, who have won 11 straight road games. Marlins’ starter Eury Perez (2-2) allowed one run and two hits over five innings.
Reds starter Nick Martinez (6-9) was looking to win his third straight outing, but was tagged for a career-high 10 runs and seven hits in five-plus innings.
Red Sox 10, Rockies 2
Brayan Bello pitched a complete game and struck out 10 to help Boston extend its winning streak to five games by beating visiting Colorado.
Bello limited the Rockies to five hits in his second career complete game. The Red Sox offense got a three-run home run from Trevor Story and a solo homer from Jarren Duran. Story and Duran each had two hits and Romy Gonzalez collected three of Boston’s 11 hits. The Red Sox have won seven of their last eight games.
Hunter Goodman produced two of Colorado’s five hits with an infield single in the fourth and a two-run home run in the ninth. Rockies starter Kyle Freeland gave up three runs on four hits in 5 2/3 innings. Colorado has lost four of its last five.
Brewers 3, Dodgers 1
Hard-throwing rookie Jacob Misiorowski recovered from a leadoff home run by Shohei Ohtani to toss six dominant innings and Milwaukee held on for a victory over visiting Los Angeles, which lost its fifth consecutive game.
Misiorowski (4-1), making his fifth start since being called up from Triple-A Nashville in mid-June, allowed four hits and struck out a career-high 12 with one walk in a 91-pitch outing — including 21 at 100 mph or more — to outduel veteran Clayton Kershaw.
Kershaw (4-1) allowed two runs on six hits in six innings. Shohei Ohtani opened the game with his National League-leading 31st homer.
Mets 7, Orioles 6 (10 innings)
Juan Soto’s third hit of the game was an RBI single in the 10th as New York rallied to defeat host Baltimore to open a three-game series.
Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso hit two-run homers before an out was recorded in the eighth inning to pull the Mets out of a four-run deficit. Ronny Mauricio also homered and Brandon Nimmo rapped a run-scoring double for New York.
Ryan O’Hearn, the Orioles’ only All-Star selection, drilled a go-ahead two-run double and Ramon Laureano added a two-run single in Baltimore’s four-run sixth inning. Starter Brandon Young had an immaculate inning in the fifth, striking out three batters on nine pitches. He finished with two runs allowed on five hits in 5 1/3 innings.
Royals 4, Pirates 3
After clubbing a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning, Nick Loftin recorded a walk-off single in the ninth in host Kansas City’s win over reeling Pittsburgh.
Maikel Garcia and Salvador Perez posted back-to-back singles off the Pirates’ Dennis Santana (2-2) to open the ninth. Then with one out, Loftin sent an Isaac Mattson pitch just out of the reach of sliding center fielder Oneil Cruz to send the Royals to a second straight victory over the Pirates.
Carlos Estevez got the win (3-2), allowing only one hit in a scoreless top of the ninth. Jac Caglianone also went deep for the Royals, who are 6-2 in July following an 8-18 June. Pittsburgh, meanwhile, has been outscored 34-11 during a seven-game road skid.
Twins 8, Cubs 1
Ryan Jeffers went 3-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs, and host Minnesota used a six-run eighth inning to surge to a win over Chicago.
Harrison Bader finished 2-for-4 with a homer and two RBIs for the Twins, which won for the third time in its past four games. Royce Lewis went 1-for-3 with a pair of RBIs, and Willi Castro hit a solo homer. Twins right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson (5-4) allowed two hits in five scoreless innings.
Justin Turner hit a solo shot that marked his 200th career homer and the only run for the Cubs. Shota Imanaga (5-3) gave up two runs on five hits in six innings.
Guardians 10, Astros 6 (10 innings)
Angel Martinez hit his first career grand slam with two outs in the top of the 10th inning, and visiting Cleveland stunned Houston.
Martinez golfed a 1-1 sinker from Astros closer Josh Hader (5-2) into the first row in left field to plate Steven Kwan, Jose Ramirez (intentional walk) and Carlos Santana (four-pitch walk). Jakob Junis (2-1) pitched a scoreless bottom of the ninth to earn the win.
Jose Altuve had a pair of hits and drove in four runs for Houston. He went 2-for-3 with runners in scoring position; the rest of the Astros were hitless in 19 attempts.
Rangers 13, Angels 1
Jake Burger went 3-for-5 with a home run and four RBIs and Wyatt Langford homered, doubled and also drove in four runs to lead as Texas routed host Los Angeles.
Corey Seager also homered and added two hits and two runs scored, while Evan Carter doubled and drove in three runs and scored twice for the Rangers. Texas finished with 12 hits and drew nine walks, batting around in both the fourth and fifth innings. Starter Nathan Eovaldi picked up the win, allowing five hits and an unearned run over six innings.
Nolan Schanuel, who won Monday night’s series opener with a walk-off walk in the bottom of the ninth, went 3-for-4 with an RBI to lead the Angels, who lost for the fourth time in the last five games. Jose Soriano suffered the loss after allowing five runs on three hits over four innings.
Cardinals 4, Nationals 2
Brendan Donovan hit a two-run homer as St. Louis defeated visiting Washington. Lars Nootbaar hit a solo homer for the Cards in a game that was delayed 2 hours, 19 minutes by rain.
St. Louis won for just the second time in their last seven games while the Nationals lost their fourth straight game. Sonny Gray (9-3) allowed two runs on five hits in five innings and Ryan Helsley earned his 18th save.
Nationals starting pitcher Jake Irvin (7-4) allowed four runs on six hits and four walks in six innings. He struck out three. CJ Abrams had a pair of hits and scored a run for Washington.
Athletics 10, Braves 1
Lawrence Butler homered twice and Nick Kurtz belted his first career grand slam to lead the host A’s to a trouncing of Atlanta.
Brent Rooker and Max Muncy also went deep as the Athletics rolled up nine runs over the first two innings. Butler scored three times and led off the bottom of the first with an inside-the-park homer. Jeffrey Springs (7-6) gave up one run on six hits over six innings for the A’s.
Eli White homered for the Braves, who have lost five straight games and 10 of their past 12. Atlanta is a season-worst 12 games below .500. Atlanta All-Star Ronald Acuna Jr. (lower back) was scratched from Tuesday’s lineup less than an hour before first pitch.
