Brent Rooker and Brett Harris each belted two home runs while 10 Oakland players registered at least one hit in the Athletics' lopsided 20-4 home win over the Miami Marlins on Saturday.

Despite a weather delay pushing back first pitch by three hours, Oakland appeared eager to bat against visiting Miami by the time the teams got to play. The A's batted around in a game-changing third inning, where they scored 10 runs on eight hits, including three home runs, to put the game out of reach early and extend their winning streak to six games.

Rooker fueled the surge with two home runs in the third, with his first, a two-run shot, coming off Miami starter Trevor Rogers (0-5). He had a three-run blast later in the inning off reliever Darren McCaughan. Rooker finished with five RBIs.

Harris recorded the first hit of his major league career when he hit a solo home run in the fourth inning. He followed up with another homer in the sixth, a two-run shot. JJ Bleday added a three-run home run off Rogers before the Marlins starter was relieved.


Nick Fortes hit a solo home run in the sixth inning for the Marlins. Bryan De La Cruz added a couple more runs for Miami with a two-run long ball in the eighth.

Padres 13, Diamondbacks 1

Luis Arraez became the first San Diego player to record four hits in his team debut, sparking the rout of Arizona in Phoenix.

Ha-Seong Kim smacked a three-run homer and Jurickson Profar hit a two-run blast, both during an eight-run seventh inning for the Padres, who have outscored the Diamondbacks 20-2 while winning the first two contests of the three-game series.

Kim drove in four runs, Manny Machado knocked in three and Profar had three of San Diego's 18 hits. Arraez scored twice and added an RBI after arriving at the ballpark just over an hour before first pitch after he was traded from the Marlins on Saturday. Arizona plated its run on Gabriel Moreno's two-out single in the ninth.

Dodgers 11, Braves 2

Max Muncy delivered his first career three-homer game, Shohei Ohtani and Andy Pages also went deep and Los Angeles rolled to a victory over visiting Atlanta.

Tyler Glasnow (6-1) had 10 strikeouts over seven innings as the Dodgers won for the ninth time in their past 11 games. Muncy had four hits while Ohtani and Freddie Freeman each had three.

Austin Riley had an RBI single as the Braves fell to 2-5 over their past seven games. Atlanta starter Bryce Elder (1-1) was roughed up for seven runs on seven hits and four walks in 3 1/3 innings.

Yankees 5, Tigers 3

Anthony Rizzo continued to deliver offensively with a three-run home run to cap a four-run third inning that lifted host New York to a victory over Detroit.

Rizzo finished 2-for-4 and has hit .333 (15-for-45) with five homers and 12 RBIs in his past 12 games dating back to April 23. Clarke Schmidt (3-1) earned the win after allowing three runs on four hits over five innings.

Riley Greene hit a homer leading off the game for the Tigers, who scored twice in the fourth. Detroit starter Casey Mize (1-1) gave up five runs on nine hits over 5 1/3 innings.

Twins 3, Red Sox 1

Max Kepler hit a solo home run and Minnesota extended its winning streak to 12 games by beating Boston in Minneapolis.

Kepler's home run, his second of the season, broke a 1-1 tie in the fourth inning. Twins starting pitcher Pablo Lopez (3-2) struck out eight in six innings. He gave up a run on five hits and walked one. Cole Sands pitched a clean ninth to earn his second save.

Wilyer Abreu and Dominic Smith each collected two hits for the Red Sox, who had eight hits in the game. Boston struck out 12 times.

White Sox 6, Cardinals 5 (10 innings)

Tommy Pham singled home the go-ahead run in the top of the 10th inning and visiting Chicago edged St. Louis in a game delayed by rain for more than three hours in the bottom of the 10th.

After the delay, Tanner Banks struck out pinch hitter Ivan Herrera in five pitches with the bases loaded to end the game.

Korey Lee hit a game-tying two-run single in the sixth inning for the White Sox, who snapped their four-game losing streak. Chicago starting pitcher Erick Fedde allowed five runs on four hits and five walks in 4 1/3 innings. Reliever Michael Kopech (1-3) earned the victory, and Banks earned his first save.

Cubs 6, Brewers 5

Christopher Morel homered for the third straight game to help host Chicago pick up a victory over Milwaukee.

Morel clubbed a two-run shot in the bottom of the third and Patrick Wisdom added a solo shot in the sixth for the Cubs. The long balls provided more than enough run support for Cubs starter Jameson Taillon (3-0), who allowed two hits and two walks across six scoreless innings. Taillon struck out seven.

Blake Perkins smacked a two-run homer as part of a four-run seventh for the Brewers, who saw an attempt at a late-game comeback come up just short.

Blue Jays 6, Nationals 3

Kevin Gausman pitched into the sixth inning, Kevin Kiermaier hit a two-run homer and Toronto ended a three-game losing streak with a win against host Washington.

Gausman (2-3) went 5 1/3 scoreless innings, allowing three hits. He struck out eight and walked two. Gausman retired 10 straight hitters at one point before allowing a single to Luis Garcia Jr. in the sixth.

CJ Abrams and Garcia each had two hits for the Nationals. Starter Jake Irvin (2-3) allowed four unearned runs on five hits over five innings.

Pirates 1, Rockies 0

Jared Jones pitched seven dominant innings and Jack Suwinski lined a pinch-hit, walk-off RBI single to left-center field in the ninth to lift Pittsburgh to a win over visiting Colorado.

Jones was masterful for the Pirates. He surrendered one hit without walking a batter and tied his career high with 10 strikeouts. Colin Holderman pitched a clean eighth and David Bednar (2-2) followed suit in the ninth as the Pirates' staff combined to retire 27 of the 28 Rockies hitters it faced.

Colorado starter Austin Gomber limited Pittsburgh to four hits over six shutout innings. Nick Mears (0-3) took the loss.

Phillies 14, Giants 3

Philadelphia scored nine runs in the first two innings and Ranger Suarez threw six quality innings to lead the Phillies to a win over visiting San Francisco.

Suarez (6-0) allowed seven hits and three runs while striking out six and walking just one. Bryson Stott and Kyle Schwarber each knocked in two runs and had two hits apiece for Philadelphia.

Thairo Estrada's run-scoring single put San Francisco on the board in the third. Estrada went 3-for-5. Wilmer Flores added a two-run homer, and Giants starter Keaton Winn (3-4) surrendered five runs on four hits in two-thirds of an inning.

Guardians 7, Angels 1

Bo Naylor hit his first career grand slam while Austin Hedges and Ramon Laureano also went deep as Cleveland defeated visiting Los Angeles.

The Guardians' Ben Lively (1-1) allowed four hits and three walks but yielded only one run while fanning five in six innings. Left fielder Steven Kwan, who entered the game batting an American League-leading .356, exited the contest after three innings with left hamstring tightness.

Angels starter Reid Detmers (3-3) yielded five hits and four walks in addition to all seven runs in 5 2/3 innings. He has allowed 16 runs in losing his past three starts.

Orioles 2, Reds 1

Jorge Mateo and Adley Rutschman belted solo homers and left-hander John Means allowed just three hits over seven shutout innings as visiting Baltimore held off a late rally to beat Cincinnati.

Making his first start of the season after missing the first month with a strained left forearm, Means (1-0) overpowered the woeful Reds offense. He allowed only a soft, one-out single to Christian Encarnacion-Strand in the second, a two-out double to Jonathan India in the third and a one-out single to India in the sixth. Means struck out eight and walked none.

Cincinnati was on the verge of being shut out at home for a third straight game before scoring its first run at Great American Ball Park since the eighth inning of a 7-4 win over Philadelphia on April 24, a string of 26 frames.

Rangers 15, Royals 4

Nathaniel Lowe collected four hits and drove in two runs as visiting Texas blasted Kansas City.

Evan Carter, Adolis Garcia and Travis Jankowski each drove in two runs for the Rangers, who have won two of their past three.

Salvador Perez struck out twice in four at-bats, ending his career-best 22-game on-base streak, and Michael Massey had three of the Royals' nine hits.

Rays 3, Mets 1

Yandy Diaz and Isaac Paredes each had two hits, including singles in Tampa Bay's tiebreaking two-run eighth inning, as the Rays defeated New York in St. Petersburg, Fla.

It marked the 755th career win for Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash, breaking a tie with Joe Maddon for the most in franchise history.

Starling Marte had two of the Mets' six hits in the loss.

Mariners 5, Astros 0

Logan Gilbert went a season-high eight innings and Luis Urias and Cal Raleigh homered as Seattle blanked host Houston.

Gilbert (3-0) allowed two hits and four walks, striking out six. He retired the side in order in the second, third, fifth and sixth innings.

Astros left-hander Framber Valdez (1-1) allowed five runs on nine hits and one walk in 5 1/3 innings. He struck out three. Yordan Alvarez finished with two of Houston's three hits.
