Diamondbacks 4, Orioles 3

Ildemaro Vargas hit a three-run homer and Merrill Kelly pitched into the sixth inning in his season debut to help Arizona beat host Baltimore.

Kelly, a veteran right-hander who was dealing with a back injury since spring training, logged 5 1/3 innings to pick up the pitching victory. He was charged with two runs on five hits. Geraldo Perdomo posted three hits for the Diamondbacks. Jose Fernandez and James McCann both had two hits on Tuesday.

Samuel Basallo homered and joined Jeremiah Jackson with two hits for Baltimore. Leody Taveras drove in runs in the third and eighth innings.

Tigers 2, Royals 1

Dillon Dingler drove in the go-ahead run with a two-out double in the eighth and host Detroit extended its winning streak to four games by edging Kansas City.

The Tigers scored both of their runs in the eighth. Zach McKinstry scored on a wild pitch and Kevin McGonigle scored on Dingler’s second hit of the night. The game featured a pitchers’ duel between the starters. The Royals’ Cole Ragans allowed just one hit and no runs in six innings. Framber Valdez limited the Royals to one run and three hits in seven innings.

Both starters thrived on getting ground balls. Valdez’s replacement, Will Vest (1-2), took a different approach. He struck out all three batters he faced. The Tigers’ Kenley Jansen left a runner stranded at third while recording his third save of the season and 479th of his career. He surpassed Lee Smith for third place on the all-time saves list.

Cubs 10, Phillies 4

Carson Kelly belted a three-run homer and Nico Hoerner and Alex Bregman also drove in three runs apiece, fueling Chicago to a victory at Philadelphia.

Michael Busch had two hits and two walks for the Cubs, who banged out 15 hits. Colin Rea (2-0) allowed three runs on four hits with five strikeouts in six innings. His lone misstep was surrendering a three-run homer to Edmundo Sosa in the second.

Phillies reliever Tim Mayza (0-1) permitted four runs, three earned, in one-third of an inning.

Nationals 5, Pirates 4

CJ Abrams went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBIs, leading Washington to a victory over host Pittsburgh.

Brady House added two hits and an RBI for the Nationals, who won for the fourth time in five games and evened the four-game set at a win apiece. Luis Garcia Jr. and Daylen Lile each hit an RBI single, Mitchell Parker (1-0) struck out five over two innings of scoreless relief and Gus Varland earned his second save.

Pirates starter Mitch Keller (1-1) was unable to continue his stellar start to the season. He surrendered five runs on six hits over four innings. Brandon Lowe and Joey Bart each hit a solo shot, while Marcell Ozuna and Nick Gonzales each added an RBI.

Braves 6, Marlins 5

Dominic Smith launched a three-run opposite-field double with two outs in the eighth inning, lifting Atlanta to a win over visiting Miami.

The rally came against Pete Fairbanks (0-1), who allowed a leadoff single to Drake Baldwin. Two outs later, Mike Yastrzemski singled and Ozzie Albies was hit by a pitch. Smith banged a 2-1 cutter off the left-center-field fence. Raisel Iglesias pitched the ninth, striking out two, to earn his third save. Robert Suarez (2-0) allowed a run in the eighth but still earned the win.

Miami scored a run in the first on a sacrifice fly from Agustin Ramirez, then added three in the second to take a 4-0 lead. Connor Norby drove in a run with a single, Graham Pauley knocked in a run with a double and Jakob Marsee added an RBI single to complete the Marlins’ fourth three-run inning of the series.

Angels 7, Yankees 1

Mike Trout, Jo Adell and Jorge Soler hit consecutive homers in the first inning for Los Angeles, which earned a victory over host New York.

The Angels won for the sixth time in their past nine visits to Yankee Stadium and lead the American League with 26 homers. Former Yankee Oswald Peraza had three hits and homered off Weathers in the fourth. Reid Detmers (1-1) allowed four hits and one run over seven-plus innings.

Ryan Weathers (0-2) permitted five runs on five hits and two walks in five-plus innings. He gave up a career-high four homers and finished with 10 strikeouts for his third career double-digit strikeout game. New York lost for the sixth time in seven games.

Padres 4, Mariners 1

Xander Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with three RBIs and Michael King fired six strong innings for his second straight win as San Diego stopped visiting Seattle.

King (2-1) allowed four hits and a run, walking two and fanning five in San Diego’s sixth straight win. Its high-leverage bullpen arms took care of matters from there with Mason Miller pitching the ninth for his fifth save in as many chances.

Bryan Woo (0-2) took the loss for Seattle, permitting eight hits and three runs over seven innings with a walk and three strikeouts. The result ended the Mariners’ four-game winning streak.

Rays 8, White Sox 5

Ben Williamson had two hits and three RBIs and left-hander Shane McClanahan earned his first victory in nearly three years as visiting Tampa Bay defeated Chicago.

McClanahan (1-1) sparked the effort, spacing three runs (two earned) and two hits in five innings. After missing the past two seasons due to Tommy John elbow surgery and a nerve issue, McClanahan picked up his first win since June 16, 2023.

Chicago’s Munetaka Murakami connected for a two-run home run in the ninth to account for the final margin. In his major league debut, White Sox starter Noah Schultz (0-1) yielded four runs (three earned) and three hits in 4 1/3 innings. Everson Pereira hit a three-run shot in his return from the injured list.

Twins 6, Red Sox 0

Byron Buxton collected four hits, including two solo home runs, and Mick Abel pitched seven scoreless innings as Minnesota extended its home winning streak to six games by beating Boston in Minneapolis.

Abel (1-2) limited Boston to four hits, struck out 10 and didn’t walk a batter. Taylor Rogers and Cole Sands each tossed one inning of scoreless relief. Buxton, who has three home runs in his last two games, scored four times. Minnesota also received a solo home run from Brooks Lee. Trevor Larnach had two RBIs and Luke Keaschall collected two hits and an RBI.

Roman Anthony and Masataka Yoshida each had two hits for Boston, which had six hits. The Red Sox have lost 11 of their first 17 games. Boston starter Sonny Gray (2-1) gave up five runs on nine hits in four innings.

Cardinals 6 Guardians 5 (10 innings)

Nathan Church brought home Thomas Saggese with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 10th inning as host St. Louis came from behind to beat Cleveland.

Cardinals rookie JJ Wetherholt hit a pair of home runs and drove in three runs to set up the rubber game of the series on Wednesday. Riley O’Brien (2-0) picked up the win after throwing a scoreless 10th.

Jose Ramirez and Daniel Schneemann hit early solo shots for the Guardians, who got a two-run double from Angel Martinez. Tim Herrin (0-1) took the loss.

Astros 7, Rockies 6

Christian Walker recorded three hits and a pair of RBIs and Houston parlayed a six-run third inning into a victory over visiting Colorado, snapping an eight-game skid.

Houston took advantage of two fielding errors by Rockies second baseman Willi Castro to chase right-hander Michael Lorenzen (1-2) in the third. Yordan Alvarez hit a game-tying two-run double down the right field line and Walker added an RBI fielder’s choice. Cam Smith and Vazquez added RBI singles that pushed the Astros to a 7-3 lead

Hunter Goodman recorded his sixth career multi-homer game, with his second blast leading off the fifth and drawing the Rockies to within 7-5. Jake McCarthy delivered a two-run triple to straightaway center, extending Colorado’s lead to 3-0 in the second after Goodman homered in the first. Jordan Beck hit a solo shot in the fourth.

Athletics 2, Rangers 1

Jacob Wilson delivered a two-run single, Jeffrey Springs tossed 6 1/3 strong innings and Denzel Clarke robbed a homer as the Athletics recorded a victory over Texas in West Sacramento, Calif.

Springs (3-0) allowed one run and three hits to help the A’s win for the sixth time in the past seven games. Mark Leiter Jr. struck out two during a perfect ninth for his second save.

Jake Burger had an RBI single for the Rangers, who had won five of their previous seven games. Texas starter MacKenzie Gore (2-1) gave up two runs and three hits over 4 2/3 innings. He walked a career-high-tying six and struck out five.

Deadspin | Struggling Storm aim for bright spot with visit to Fever  Jul 15, 2026; Chicago, Illinois, USA;  Seattle Storm center Dominique Malonga (14) passes the ball against Chicago Sky guard Rachel Banham (24) during the second half at Wintrust Arena. Mandatory Credit: Matt Marton-Imagn Images   The Seattle Storm are looking to stop their latest losing streak.  The last-place Storm (6-20) lost their third consecutive game on Wednesday afternoon to the Chicago Sky. Despite the 95-90 road loss, the team hopes that the lessons from that game carry over into their outing against the host Indiana Fever on Thursday night.  “I think the takeaway for us was much more about the first half (and) how we start,” Storm coach Sonia Raman said. “You know, taking care of the ball so that we limit the points off turnovers mainly, and then just guarding better in the half court.”  All-Star center Dominique Malonga will look to lead the way for the Storm. Malonga has collected at least nine rebounds in four consecutive games and averages 8.2 rebounds per game.  Rookie guard Flau’jae Johnson could also be a key player. Johnson ranks third among WNBA rookies in scoring, averaging 13.1 points per game, and tied her season high with 11 made field goals on 17 shots Wednesday against the Sky.   The Fever (14-10) are looking to bounce back after an 88-75 loss to the Golden State Valkyries at home on Wednesday. The Fever matched their season low of 75 points against the Valkyries, and fatigue might have contributed since it was their first game back home after a four-game Western road trip. However, the team doesn’t want to use that as an excuse for their defeat.  “We don’t have time for that,” Fever coach Stephanie White said. “This has got to be no excuses, standard over feelings. Everybody in this league goes through this. It’s not something that we’re going to be immune to, and everybody else isn’t. I think our mentality to start the ball game needed to be better. And when you spend all of that energy trying to come back at multiple points in the game, it becomes a hard road at times. And we can’t give into those excuses.”  Led by the All Star trio of Kelsey Mitchell (22.6 ppg), Caitlin Clark (19.7 ppg, 7.7 assists per game) and Aliyah Boston (17.2 ppg, 8.7 rpg), Indiana will look to score early and often. The Fever lead the WNBA in scoring at 93.2 points per game and scored 89 points in the first matchup with the Storm on May 17 when they notched an 11-point home victory.  –Field Level Media   #Deadspin #Struggling #Storm #aim #bright #spot #visit #FeverJul 15, 2026; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Seattle Storm center Dominique Malonga (14) passes the ball against Chicago Sky guard Rachel Banham (24) during the second half at Wintrust Arena.
