Stephen Kolek threw a complete-game shutout to lead the host Kansas City Royals to a 5-0 win over the Seattle Mariners on Saturday.

Kolek (3-0), who threw his first complete-game shutout last May with the San Diego Padres, struck out two and limited the Mariners to four hits and one walk to notch the Royals' first complete-game shutout since Sep. 13, 2020 and the fourth overall of the 2026 season.

Bobby Witt Jr. had two hits and two runs and Michael Massey contributed two hits. Carter Jensen was 1-for-2 with a run and two RBIs as the Royals picked up their first win on a nine-game homestand which started with four straight losses.

Luke Raley was 3-for-3 with a double for Seattle. Mariners starter George Kirby (5-4) allowed five runs (three earned) on nine hits in six innings.

Dodgers 11, Brewers 3

Teoscar Hernandez homered and matched his career high with six RBIs, and the Los Angeles bullpen extended its scoreless streak to a franchise-record 36 innings to preserve a victory over host Milwaukee to even the series between division leaders.

Dodgers starter Roki Sasaki (3-3) allowed three runs in the first, but left after five innings with a 4-3 lead. Relievers Alex Vesia, Kyle Hurt, Tanner Scott and Jonathan Hernandez each followed with a scoreless inning to extend the bullpen's scoreless streak to 36 innings, the team's longest in the modern era, surpassing the previous franchise record of 33 innings set in 1998.

The Dodgers erased a 3-0 deficit with four runs in the fourth off Robert Gasser (0-1), capped by Hernandez's three-run homer. Freddie Freeman and Andy Pages opened with back-to-back doubles to make it 3-1. Kyle Tucker drew a one-out walk and Hernandez then sent an 0-2 pitch 357 feet to left for his seventh homer.

Bryan Torres hit a two-run homer in his major league debut and Andre Pallante retired 13 straight batters as St. Louis took Game 1 of a day-night doubleheader in Cincinnati.

Nathaniel Lowe hit a solo homer in the second to give the Reds a brief 1-0 lead. Starter Chris Paddack (0-6) gave up three runs on seven hits in his five-inning stint.

Reds 7, Cardinals 6 (Game 2, 11 innings)

Blake Dunn's infield grounder drove in the winning run in extras to help Cincinnati defeat St. Louis and earn a split of their doubleheader.

Dunn looped a ball up the middle. Shortstop Masyn Winn fielded and threw home, but he was unable to get a sliding Spencer Steer. Cincinnati scored five runs in the fifth with Elly De La Cruz and Nathaniel Lowe both going deep. Chase Petty was appointed as the extra roster player for the doubleheader and got the start, allowing four runs on six hits over five innings.

Phillies 3, Guardians 0

Zack Wheeler pitched six strong innings as Philadelphia notched a shutout victory over visiting Cleveland to snap the Guardians' seven-game winning streak.

Bryson Stott knocked in two runs for the Phillies, who had lost their previous three games. Bryce Harper also provided some support for Wheeler (4-0) by chipping in three hits and scoring twice in a game that began two hours late due to rain. Jhoan Duran picked up the save a night after surrendering the game-winning home run Friday.

Slade Cecconi (3-5) allowed three runs and six hits in five innings for Cleveland. However, he received no support from the Guardians' offense, which totaled only three hits.

Astros 3, Cubs 0

Christian Walker lined two homers into a stiff wind and Kai-Wai Teng went a career-long six innings to enable Houston to send host Chicago to its seventh consecutive loss.

Walker roped a two-run homer in the first and a solo shot in the fourth for the Astros, who lost Yordan Alvarez mid at-bat in the sixth to back spasms. Teng (3-3) scattered two singles and three walks over six innings.

Cubs starter Colin Rea (4-3) allowed three runs and four hits over a season-high seven innings. The Cubs put just one runner in scoring position as they were shut out for the second time in three games.

Padres 2, Athletics 0

Lucas Giolito tossed five shutout innings and San Diego took advantage of surprising wildness from Athletics starter J.T. Ginn in a home victory.

Giolito (2-0) allowed four hits and issued five walks but was able to pitch out of multiple jams. Jeremiah Estrada, Adrian Morejon and Jason Adam each handled an inning before former Athletic Mason Miller, facing his old team for the first time since being traded at the deadline last year, worked a 1-2-3 ninth for his 16th save in as many chances.

Ginn (2-3), who threw eight no-hit innings Monday night before losing 2-1 to the Angels in Los Angeles, left this one with a no-hitter. But he only lasted 2 1/3 innings because he walked six, hit a batter and threw 73 pitches. Ginn fanned four and was charged with both runs.

Blue Jays 5, Pirates 2

George Springer and Tyler Heineman stroked solo home runs and host Toronto defeated Pittsburgh and ace Paul Skenes.

Willy Adames added a solo shot for the Giants, who recorded three home runs in the same game for just the fourth time this season. Matt Gage (4-1) threw 1 1/3 innings, including getting the final out of the top of the fifth before the Giants' explosion, striking out four and allowing one hit to help snap San Francisco's four-game losing streak.

Erick Fedde (0-5) came on in the second inning following opener Bryan Hudson and allowed eight runs and 10 hits in 3 1/3 innings. Miguel Vargas and Tristan Peters had two hits each for the White Sox, who have alternated wins and losses in their last six games.

Twins 4, Red Sox 2

Minnesota scored twice in the first inning and held on to edge host Boston.

Starter Taj Bradley (5-1) struck out seven across five innings of one-run ball in his first start since coming off the injured list. Taylor Rogers fanned Jarren Duran looking with the bases loaded in the ninth, earning his second save of the season.

Trevor Larnach went 4-for-5 with a double and two runs to pace the Twins. Austin Martin and Orlando Arcia each posted two hits and one RBI for the Twins. Ceddanne Rafaela doubled and drove in the first run for Boston, which was limited to five hits.

Nationals 2, Braves 0

Jake Irvin and two relievers combined to throw a one-hitter, Dylan Crews and Jorbit Vivas each homered and visiting Washington blanked Atlanta to even the series.

Irvin (2-4) tossed five no-hit innings, striking out seven and walking one before exiting with shoulder soreness Brad Lord allowed one hit across three scoreless frames before Richard Lovelady threw a perfect ninth to earn his fourth save.

Grant Holmes (3-2) threw five innings for Atlanta, allowing two runs on six hits. Michael Harris II accounted for the Braves' only hit with a seventh-inning single as Atlanta's four-game winning streak came to an end.

Marlins 4, Mets 1

Max Meyer remained unbeaten, teaming with a pair of relievers on a three-hitter as host Miami locked up a series win by beating New York in the second game of a three-game set.

Liam Hicks had his first career two-homer game for the Marlins, who have won consecutive games for the first time since May 9-10. Mark Vientos had two hits, including a ninth-inning RBI single to end the shutout bid, for the Mets.

Meyer (5-0) gave up one hit -- Vientos' single leading off the second -- while winning his third straight start. The 27-year-old is 4-0 with a 1.76 ERA in five starts this month, which began when he limited the Philadelphia Phillies to one hit over seven innings while earning the win in Miami's 4-0 victory on May 2.

Diamondbacks 5, Rockies 4

Ketel Marte went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer to lead Arizona to a victory over Colorado in Phoenix.
