Narváez's walk-off single in 10th lifts Red Sox over Yankees 2-1

BOSTON (AP) — Carlos Narváez hit a walk-off RBI single off the wall in the 10th inning after Aaron Judge hit a tying solo home run in the ninth and the Boston Red Sox rallied to beat the New York Yankees 2-1 on Friday night.
Ceddanne Rafaela added an RBI.
Boston has now won its last three against its longtime rivals. The loss snaps a three-game overall win streak for New York, which came in off a sweep of Kansas City last week.
Jarren Duran grounded out to open the 10th, moving automatic runner David Hamilton to third. Reliever Tim Hill (3-2) then walked Rafael Devers. After a strikeout, Narváez came to the plate.
Garrett Whitlock (5-0) pitched a scoreless 10th to salvage a master performance by Boston starter Garrett Crochet, who pitched a career-high 8 1/3 innings, yielding four hits and striking out seven.
Crochet gave up just three of those hits over eight innings, striking out Judge each of the first three times he faced him.
His luck ran out the fourth time when Judge unloaded on Crochet's seventh pitch of the at-bat — a 99.6 mph fastball — belting it 443 feet over the Green Monster.
Crochet was replaced by Aroldis Chapman, who got the final two outs of the inning.
Yankees starter Ryan Yarbrough gave up four hits over 4 2/3 innings, walked three and struck out three.
PIRATES 2, CUBS 1, 10 INNINGS
CHICAGO (AP) — Isiah Kiner-Falefa hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning to help Pittsburgh beat Chicago.
The Pirates loaded the bases in the 10th on Ke'Bryan Hayes' infield single and a walk to Henry Davis. Kiner-Falefa then drove in Adam Frazier with a flyball to left off Drew Pomeranz (2-1).
Kiner-Falefa also threw out Ian Happ when he attempted to score from first on Kyle Tucker's two-out double in the fifth inning.
Dennis Santana (2-1) got five outs for the win, and David Bednar worked a perfect 10th for his 10th save.
Pirates ace Paul Skenes struck out five in five scoreless innings. He allowed four hits and walked two while throwing 95 pitches, 60 for strikes.
Skenes was matched by Cade Horton, who permitted three hits in 5 2/3 shutout innings for the NL Central leaders.
Each team scored in the eighth.
The Pirates jumped in front when Davis scored on Oneil Cruz's chopper near the mound. Reliever Brad Keller made an errant throw to the plate.
PHILLIES 8, BLUE JAYS 0
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kyle Schwarber hit a three-run homer, Ranger Suárez struck out six in seven shutout innings and Philadelphia beat Toronto.
Suárez (5-1) continued to shine since his return from an early season back injury. He allowed seven runs in his first start of the season and has allowed only seven total in his next seven starts.
The Phillies have won three of their last four games, and remain in the thick of the NL East hunt, even with key pieces
Bryce Harper
and
Aaron Nola
nursing injuries.
Suárez received a standing ovation from Phillies fans when he walked off the mound in the seventh after throwing his 94th pitch.
He got all the help he needed when the Phillies scored four runs off Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman (5-5) in the second inning. Brandon Marsh socked an RBI double off the wall for a 1-0 lead and Schwarber connected on his 22nd homer of the season, a 410-foot shot to dead center that landed just beyond the outstretched glove of Myles Straw.
BRAVES 12, ROCKIES 4
ATLANTA (AP) — Marcel Ozuna hit a three-run homer in the seventh inning to give Atlanta the lead and the Braves stormed back from a three-run deficit to beat Colorado.
Ozuna's homer to left field off Victor Vodnik (1-2) drove in Alex Verdugo and Matt Olson.
Ryan McMahon had three hits for Colorado, including a
two-run homer
in the first. A
three-run homer
by Michael Harris II in the sixth off Jake Bird tied it at 4.
Ronald Acuña Jr. doubled on the first pitch from Germán Márquez and scored on Olson's sacrifice fly. Acuña added singles in the third and fifth innings and stole second base in the fifth on his first attempt since
returning on May 23
after missing almost a full season following surgery on his left knee.
A leaping catch by left fielder Jordan Beck in the seventh robbed Acuña of another hit.
Olson drove in three runs on three hits.
TIGERS 11, REDS 5
DETROIT (AP) — Gleyber Torres homered twice and Riley Greene drove in four runs to help Detroit beat Cincinnati.
Greene had a solo homer in the third and a three-run double in the sixth as the Tigers improved to 19-4 in series openers. TJ Friedl and Elly De La Cruz homered for the Reds.
Torres homered on the first pitch from Nick Martinez (4-7). It was Torres' fourth career leadoff homer, with the first three coming for the Yankees.
TJ Friedl tied it with a third-inning homer off Keider Montero (3-1), but Greene homered over the Cincinnati bullpen to make it 2-1 in the bottom of the inning.
Javier Báez homered in the fourth to give the Tigers a 3-1 lead, but Elly De La Cruz hit his 14th homer in the fifth — the fifth solo homer of the game.
Detroit finally created some distance with a four-run sixth. Martinez walked Báez to start the inning and was replaced by Scott Barlow, who allowed a single and a walk to load the bases. Torres ended Barlow's outing with a sacrifice fly, but Taylor Rogers didn't fare any better.
RAYS 7, METS 5
NEW YORK (AP) — Danny Jansen hit a two-run homer to cap Tampa Bay's six-run sixth inning and the Rays came back to beat New York and snap its six-game winning streak.
Mets starter Clay Holmes exited after five innings with a 5-1 lead, but Paul Blackburn was charged with four runs while giving up hits to four of the five batters he faced.
Jake Mangum chased Blackburn with a two-run single and José Caballaro followed with a run-scoring groundout against Max Kranick (3-2) before Jansen hit a 389-foot homer to left on a 2-2 pitch.
The Mets stranded seven runners over the final four innings. New York lost at Citi Field for the first time since May 28 and dropped to 27-8 at home.
Eric Orze (1-0), who pitched briefly for the Mets last season, earned his first big league win by getting three outs after Rays starter Taj Bradley exited without recording an out in the fifth. Bradley gave up five runs — all unearned.
Mason Montgomery, Garrett Cleavinger, Edwin Uceta and Pete Fairbanks — who earned his 13th save — combined for four scoreless innings for the Rays, who won despite committing a season-high three errors and issuing seven walks.
RANGERS 3, WHITE SOX 1
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Josh Smith homered and scored all three Texas runs in his fifth consecutive two-hit game to help the Rangers beat Chicago.
The leadoff hitter had a single in the first and scored on Corey Seager's sacrifice fly. Smith's seventh homer was a 396-foot drive to right-center in the third, then he walked ahead of Marcus Semien's RBI double that made it 3-0 in the fifth.
Smith was 2 for 3 with a walk and is hitting .435 (10 for 23) during a career-best streak of five multihit games.
Jacob Webb (4-3), the second of seven pitchers in a bullpen game for the Rangers, worked two innings for the victory as they won for the fifth time in six games. Robert Garcia loaded the bases in the ninth before closing out his fifth save in seven chances.
White Sox starter Adrian Houser (2-2) allowed three runs and six hits over five innings. He struck out two and walked four.
ASTROS 10, TWINS 3
HOUSTON (AP) — Jose Altuve and rookie Jacob Melton drove in three runs each as Houston jumped on Chris Paddack early and cruised to a win over Minnesota.
Paddack (2-6) tied career highs by allowing 12 hits and nine runs — eight earned — in just four innings for his third straight loss.
Houston rookie starter Colton Gordon (2-1) gave up six hits and two runs with five strikeouts in a career-high six innings.
Jeremy Peña tied a season-high with four hits and rookie Cam Smith had two hits and two RBIs as the AL West-leading Astros won their third straight.
Willi Castro, Royce Lewis and Ty France all hit solo homers for the Twins, who were blown out for the third time in four games after losing to Texas 16-4 Tuesday and 16-3 Thursday.
BREWERS 3, CARDINALS 2
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Freddy Peralta struck out six over six innings of one-run ball and Milwaukee scraped out just enough against Erick Fedde for a victory over St. Louis.
After retiring the Cardinals in order through the first three innings, Peralta (6-4) gave up four hits and a walk.
St. Louis has lost six straight to fall 1 1/2 games back of second-place Milwaukee and six games behind first-place Chicago in the NL Central.
The Cardinals scored a run in the fifth when Alec Burleson and Nolan Arenado opened the inning with back-to-back doubles, and cut it to one run in the ninth on Victor Scott's RBI single off Trevor Megill.
Fedde (3-6) also faced the minimum through three. Milwaukee's first hit came in the fourth when Sal Frelick led off with a single that hit Fedde on the left wrist.
ATHLETICS 6, ROYALS 4
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Austin Wynns and Luis Urías hit home runs, Luis Severino pitched 7 2/3 strong innings, and the Athletics beat Kansas City 6-4 on Friday night to end a 14-game road losing streak and hand the Royals their fourth straight loss.
Severino (2-6) allowed six hits and a first-inning run on an RBI double by Salvador Perez. He surrendered 17 hits and 13 earned runs in his two previous starts covering 11 1/3 innings.
Wynns hit his fourth home run — a solo shot with two outs in the second off Royals starter Michael Wacha (3-6) — to tie it 1-1. Urías hit Wacha's second pitch in the fourth out to left for his seventh homer and a 3-1 lead. Nick Kurtz drove in the second run for the A's with a two-out single in the third.
The Athletics pulled away after Wacha left with two on and one out in the sixth.
Jacob Wilson greeted reliever Steven Cruz with a single to load the bases. Cruz fanned Brent Rooker on three pitches but walked Tyler Soderstrom to force in a run. Max Muncy followed with a two-run single for a 6-1 advantage. Cruz fanned Kurtz with his 22nd pitch to end the inning. Wilson went 2 for 5 and scored twice.

Chicago White Sox end 8-game skid with 7-1 rout behind home runs from Andrew Benintendi and Luis Robert Jr.

TORONTO — The Chicago White Sox used the long ball to bring their eight-game losing streak to an emphatic end. Andrew Benintendi and Luis Robert Jr. hit tape-measure home runs in a 7-1 victory against the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday at Rogers Centre. 'We did a good job collectively of controlling the zone,' manager Will Venable said. 'It was a full team commitment offensively to shrink the zone, and we didn't miss our pitches.' Benintendi blasted a 425-foot solo home run to right field against Blue Jays starter Spencer Turnbull in the first inning. It had an exit velocity of 108.3 mph. 'We want to be aggressive and he clipped that ball pretty good,' Venable said. 'Really did a good job of setting the tone for the group and the rest of the guys followed. Love the damage there.' Robert crushed a 441-foot, two-run home run to left field against reliever Mason Fluharty during a four-run third inning. It had an exit velocity of 114.2 mph. Robert is 9-for-33 (.273) with two home runs, two doubles and six RBIs in his last 10 games. 'He looked good here, has the last couple of days,' Venable said. 'Really staying through the baseball, swinging at good pitches. And you see the result today. You get excited when you see Luis do damage like that.' Austin Slater and Benintendi collected RBI singles in the second inning, and Josh Rojas knocked in two with a double in the third in the runaway win in front of 36,121. The Sox (24-52) used five pitchers in a bullpen game after placing scheduled starter Davis Martin on the injured list on Friday with a right forearm strain. Grant Taylor displayed his blazing fastball during a 1-2-3 first inning in his first major-league start. 'He pounded the zone with a plus fastball,' Venable said. 'For me, if you can throw 100 (mph), use that thing and see what you've got. And he did that tonight.' After two groundouts, Taylor ended the inning striking out Vladimir Guerrero Jr. swinging on a 99.2-mph high fastball. 'The big takeaway was that (Guerrero) at-bat — four heaters, three up top of the zone, got some swing and miss,' Taylor said. 'Was really excited about that.' Tyler Alexander earned the win in the bulk role, allowing four hits and striking out two during four scoreless innings. He induced ending-inning double plays in the fourth and fifth innings — the second of which erased a bases-loaded situation. 'We had a mound visit, talked through what we wanted to do (facing Tyler Heineman with the bases loaded and one out in the fifth),' Alexander said. 'Fortunately he put the ball on the ground early. That helped. The (Guerrero) double play (in the fourth), huge. Well-executed pitches and got weak contact.' Venable said Alexander's outing was 'amazing.' 'He continues to pitch crucial innings for us where he's attacking the zone,' Venable said. 'He's fearless too.' Wikelman González allowed one run on one hit with two strikeouts and two walks in his major-league debut. The right-hander, called up Friday from Triple-A Charlotte, struck out Ernie Clement swinging for his first MLB punchout to end the seventh inning. He got Guerrero to line out to Benintendi in left field with two on for the final out of the eighth. 'It was a little exciting to face one of the best hitters in the world, but I trusted my stuff and I'm glad I got him out,' González said through an interpreter. After several close losses during the skid, the Sox clicked across the board to return to the win column. 'They did a great job in every phase of the game,' Venable said. 'Pitching was outstanding, we pounded the zone all night. Defense was great, (Lenyn) Sosa made some great plays (at second base). … Really good stuff all over the field. 'These guys have been working so hard and to have it on a game like that where everyone contributed, everyone played well, it's really nice to see.'
