Myles Straw’s two-run double capped a three-run 10th inning as the visiting Toronto Blue Jays rallied for a 9-7 victory over Milwaukee on Tuesday night, the Brewers’ sixth consecutive defeat.

Toronto scored three runs in the ninth to go up 6-4, but the Brewers tied it with two in the bottom half.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s one-out double in the 10th off Grant Anderson (0-1) scored automatic runner Ernie Clement from second to put Toronto up 7-6. Jesse Sanchez was walked intentionally and both runners scored on Straw’s liner to left.

Louis Varland (1-1), who relieved with two outs in the ninth and struck out Joey Ortiz to strand the bases loaded, got the win despite allowing a run in the 10th on William Contreras’ RBI single. Varland stranded runners on first and second with a game-ending strikeout of Gary Sanchez.

Reds 2, Giants 1

Brady Singer threw six strong innings, Spencer Steer and Sal Stewart hit early home runs and host Cincinnati held on to edge San Francisco, which had more hits, 7-3.

Singer (1-1) allowed a two-out, fifth-inning home run to Willy Adames but just five other hits in his six innings. Graham Ashcraft, Tony Santillan and Emilio Pagan all worked a scoreless inning in relief, with Pagan notching his fifth save after a seven-pitch ninth.

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.
