BOX SCORE SCOREBOARD

Amed Rosario hit two of the Yankees' six home runs as visiting New York beat the Kansas City Royals for a 14th straight time, including the playoffs, 15-1 on Tuesday night.

New York's Cody Bellinger, Anthony Volpe, Trent Grisham and Jazz Chisholm Jr. also went deep. Rosario had four hits and four RBIs, and the homer-hitting quintet combined for 12 RBIs. Grisham, Volpe, Ben Rice and Austin Wells each had three of the Yankees' 24 hits.

It was the first time in Yankees history that all nine starters had at least two hits. New York starter Cam Schlittler (7-2) allowed one run over six strong innings, and Ryan Yarbrough got a three-inning save.

Bobby Witt Jr. homered for the Royals, who have lost 12 of their past 15 games. Bailey Falter (0-2) yielded seven runs on nine hits in 2 1/3 innings.


Dodgers 15, Rockies 6

Mookie Betts and Andy Pages combined for three home runs while thriving from new spots in the batting order as Los Angeles rolled over visiting Colorado.

Betts homered twice while Pages, Enrique Hernandez and Will Smith also went deep as Los Angeles extended its winning streak to four games. Hernandez later exited with an oblique injury that will send him back to the injured list, two games after he was activated. Eric Lauer (2-5) threw six innings and gave up one run in his Dodgers debut.

The Dodgers did receive a scare when reigning National League MVP and current Cy Young Award contender Shohei Ohtani was hit on the right (throwing) hand with a pitch in the fourth inning. He remained in the game and scored a run, but was pinch-hit for in his next scheduled at-bat. After the game, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he expects Ohtani to make his scheduled start on the mound Wednesday.

Pirates 12, Cubs 1

Rookie Esmerlyn Valdez hit his second career home run and Oneil Cruz had the first of his three hits to highlight a five-run first inning, putting host Pittsburgh on course to an easy win over reeling Chicago.

Cruz drove in a run with a single and Valdez finished with three RBIs as the Pirates won their third in a row and handed the Cubs their 10th consecutive defeat. The longest active losing streak in the majors is also Chicago's longest since June 4-16, 2022.

Pittsburgh had 15 hits as Spencer Horwitz and Bryan Reynolds each had two hits and two RBIs. Brandon Lowe had two hits and scored twice. Pirates starter Braxton Ashcraft (4-2) threw 6 1/3 innings of one-run ball. Cubs starter Jordan Wicks (0-1) yielded eight runs in 4 1/3 innings during his season debut.

Orioles 6, Rays 1

Shane Baz pitched seven splendid innings against his former team, Samuel Basallo drilled a three-run home run and host Baltimore made the most of seven hits in a victory against Tampa Bay.

Baz (2-5) allowed one run on seven hits while striking out nine. Jackson Holliday and Leody Taveras each had two hits for the Orioles, who have won the first two games of the three-game series. All six of Baltimore's runs were unearned as the Rays, who have lost three in a row, committed three errors and a passed ball.

Tampa Bay starter Griffin Jax (1-3) allowed three unearned runs on three hits in two innings, exiting shortly after he was struck on the back by a line drive. The Rays said he sustained a back contusion and is day-to-day. Jonathan Aranda has three hits and an RBI.

Rangers 10, Astros 7

Joc Pederson capped an eight-run first inning with a three-run homer and Texas, one night after managing no hits, snapped a four-game losing streak with a win over Houston in Arlington, Texas.

Texas recorded its season high for runs in an inning. Evan Carter homered, tripled, doubled and drove in three runs for the Rangers. Jack Leiter (2-4) allowed four runs on four hits over six innings.

Yordan Alvarez homered twice and drove in four runs for the Astros. Cam Smith and Jeremy Pena each hit a solo homer. Jason Alexander (1-1) was tagged for nine runs on six hits in six innings.

Mariners 4, Athletics 1

Emerson Hancock allowed one hit over six scoreless innings and Victor Robles had a season-high three hits to help Seattle post a victory over the Athletics at West Sacramento, Calif.

Mitch Garver had two hits and an RBI and Josh Naylor had two hits and a run for the Mariners. Jose A. Ferrer, Gabe Speier and Andres Munoz combined for three innings of one-run relief.

Athletics star Nick Kurtz went 0-for-4 and struck out three times to halt his streak of reaching base at 48 games. That leaves him tied with Mark McGwire (1996) for the franchise single-season record. Tyler Soderstrom homered for the A's, who lost for the fourth time in five games.

Reds 7, Mets 2

Eugenio Suarez, Elly De La Cruz and Tyler Stephenson had two RBIs each for visiting Cincinnati, which rolled past sinking New York.

Every starter except Spencer Steer had at least one hit for the Reds, who have won three straight and five of their past six. Juan Soto hit a two-run homer while Luis Torrens finished with two hits for the Mets, who have lost five in a row and seven of their past eight.

Chase Burns (7-1) won his sixth straight decision after giving up two runs while striking out eight over 5 1/3 innings. Mets starter David Peterson (3-5) allowed six runs on 11 hits in five-plus innings.

Blue Jays 8, Marlins 1

Jesus Sanchez hit his first career grand slam to key a six-run sixth inning as host Toronto defeated his former team, Miami.

Ernie Clement and Yohendrick Pinango also homered for the Blue Jays, who have split the first two of a three-game series with the Marlins. George Springer had three hits and an RBI and was hit by a pitch. Spencer Miles (2-0) allowed one run and three hits in 4 1/3 innings.

Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara (3-4) allowed eight runs on 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings.

Matt Olson also went deep for the Braves. Spencer Strider (3-0) pitched five-plus innings, allowing three runs on three hits. Raisel Iglesias gave up a two-run single to Isiah Kiner-Falefa in the ninth but stranded runners on second and third for his ninth save.

Brewers 6, Cardinals 0

Garrett Mitchell and Jake Bauers homered while Kyle Harrison delivered six strong innings to lead Milwaukee to a shutout win over visiting St. Louis.

Harrison (5-1) allowed four hits over six innings. He earned a fifth win in his past six starts and made his third straight scoreless start, running his shutout streak to 18 innings. Acquired in a February trade with Boston, Harrison owns a 1.57 ERA through his first 10 starts with the Brewers.

Grant Anderson, Abner Uribe and Trevor Megill finished with a scoreless inning apiece to cap off Milwaukee's fourth shutout win of the season, two of which have come in the past week.

Phillies 4, Padres 3

Bryce Harper, J.T. Realmuto and Trea Turner blasted solo homers in the first three innings, and visiting Philadelphia held on for a win over San Diego.

Aaron Nola (3-4) cruised through six innings, allowing three hits and two runs for the Phillies, who will aim for a three-game sweep on Wednesday. Jhoan Duran tossed a perfect ninth inning to earn his 11th save.

Kody Clemens and Austin Martin also drove in runs for Minnesota, which won for the fifth time in six games. Minnesota starter Joe Ryan worked 7 2/3 sharp innings. Taylor Rogers (1-1) pitched a scoreless 10th, and Yoendrys Gomez notched his third save despite permitting Chase Meidroth's RBI single in the bottom of the 11th.
