Wednesday's Tip Sheet
August 7, 2019


Yankees (-250, 9 ?) at Orioles ? 7:05 PM EST

New York (74-39) continues to pull away in the American League East after winning its seventh consecutive game in Tuesday?s 9-4 victory at Baltimore. The Yankees picked up their 10th straight win over the Orioles thanks to six home runs, while four pitchers tossed at least two innings to help New York improve to 12-2 against Baltimore this season.

The offense continues to thrive when facing the O?s as the Yankees have scored at least six runs in all nine wins at Camden Yards this season, while not losing a game in Baltimore. Aaron Boone?s squad has drilled the OVER in 14 of the past 17 games overall, including nine consecutive OVERS in games played away from the Bronx.

The Yankees seek the sweep this evening behind James Paxton (6-6, 4.61 ERA), who ended a five-start winless streak by beating the Red Sox in his previous trip to the mound last Friday. Paxton tossed six innings of two-hit ball, while allowing two earned runs in a 4-2 victory as a -125 home favorite. All six runs came in the first inning as UNDER bettors were sweating the total of 10, but Paxton and the Yankees? bullpen didn?t allow a run in the final eight innings.

The Orioles (38-75) dropped their 40th home game of the season on Tuesday, marking the most home defeats of any team in the league. Since the start of July, Baltimore has won five of six games coming off back-to-back losses, while last getting swept in a series of three or more games at Oakland in mid-June.

Left-hander John Means (8-6, 3.12 ERA) returns to the mound following a stint on the injured list as the Orioles? hurler lasted less than four innings at Arizona in his previous outing on July 24. Means has not started against the Yankees this season, but faced them in relief during the first week and allowed one run in 5.2 innings of work. The O?s have pulled off five victories with Means starting as an underdog of +140 or higher, including recent home victories over Boston and Cleveland.

Royals at Red Sox (-310, 10 ?) ? 7:10 PM EST

Dating back to July 28, Kansas City (41-74) actually has more wins than Boston (60-56). Granted, the Royals have won twice in this span and the Red Sox have only one victory, but Kansas City snapped a seven-game skid overall and an eight-game drought to Boston dating back to last May in Tuesday?s 6-2 triumph at Fenway Park. The Royals cashed as a +175 underdog behind six solid innings from Jakob Junis, while Jorge Soler went deep twice for Kansas City to raise his home run total on the season to 31.

The Royals look to improve on a 1-6 mark in their last seven road series finales as Glenn Sparkman (3-7, 5.58 ERA) takes the mound. Sparkman has been knocked around recently by allowing 19 runs in the last three starts, all losses to Cleveland twice and Minnesota. Sparkman held his own against the Red Sox at home back in early June by tossing 5.1 innings and giving up three hits and one run. Kansas City couldn?t hold onto a 2-0 lead as Boston rallied for an 8-3 victory, aided by five runs in the final two innings.

Eduardo Rodriguez (13-5, 4.19 ERA) counters for Boston as the Red Sox have won 17 of the southpaw?s 23 starts this season. The Sox had won Rodriguez?s previous five starts before falling to the Yankees, 4-2 last Friday in the Bronx. Rodriguez was staked an early 2-0 lead before allowing a grand slam in the bottom of the first inning, resulting in all of New York?s runs for the game. The left-hander was the winning pitcher against Sparkman and the Royals back on June 4 by striking out seven batters in 5.2 innings to cash as a nearly -200 road favorite in the 8-3 win.

Boston has struggled in series finales recently by losing six of its past seven in this situation, while dropping five of the last six games at Fenway since taking the first three against the Yankees in late July.

Phillies at Diamondbacks (-135, 9) ? 9:40 PM EST

Philadelphia and Arizona have split the first two games of their series at Chase Field as the two squads play the rubber match of their set tonight. The Phillies (59-54) pulled away from the Diamondbacks (57-57) in Monday?s opener, 7-3, highlighted by seven strong innings from Vince Velasquez. Arizona rebounded last night with six late runs in an 8-4 triumph in Mike Leake?s debut on the mound after getting traded from Seattle. Leake allowed 11 hits and three runs in 5.1 innings, but he was helped out by three Arizona home runs, including Eduardo Escobar?s 25th dinger on the season.

The Phillies has won eight of their last nine games coming off a loss as Jason Vargas (6-5, 3.93 ERA) makes his second start since being acquired from the Mets at the trade deadline. Vargas picked up a no-decision in his Phillies? debut last Friday in a 4-3 setback to the White Sox as a -170 home favorite. The left-hander pitched well by giving up two runs and five hits in 6.1 innings, but Chicago outlasted Philadelphia in 15 innings.

The D-backs will see plenty of their division foes following tonight?s contest as the next 13 games come against the NL West, starting with Friday?s series in Los Angeles. Arizona sits 2 ? games behind Philadelphia for the second Wild Card position in the National League, but the D-backs also trail the Cardinals, Brewers, and Mets.

Zac Gallen (1-3, 2.72 ERA) makes his debut with the Diamondbacks after getting dealt from the Marlins last week as the rookie right-hander is coming off a pair of solid outings against the White Sox and Twins. Gallen tossed seven innings in each of those starts, including striking out nine batters in a 2-0 triumph at Chicago on July 24 as a short underdog. Gallen is listed as a favorite for the first time in eight starts as the Marlins owned a 2-5 record when the right-hander took the mound.

STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTERS

STREAKING

Gerrit Cole, Houston Astros (13-5, 2.87 ERA, $194): The Astros have an embarrassment of riches in the starting rotation. Cole is our streaking starter, but Verlander is hotter, Greinke there now, and their fifth starter, Aaron Sanchez just threw a combined no-hitter. Wow.

Anyways, 1.29 ERA and a 0.86 WHIP with 33 punchouts over his last four starts. Additionally, Cole has allowed more than two earned runs just once since May 27th. That?s pretty good. Houston ins a massive -350 home favorite this afternoon against the Rockies.

SLUMPING

Yusei Kikuchi, Seattle Mariners (4-8, 5.49 ERA, $-574): To be fair, most of the Mariners are struggling, but Kikuchi?s current four-game stretch has been pretty rough. The right-hander has been tuned for an 8.24 ERA with a 1.63 WHIP over that stretch. He and the Mariners are +135 home dogs for tonight?s matchup against the Padres.



BOMBERS AND BIRDS

Most trends that really catch your eye usually start around 10 games or so and you?re happy if they last another week or so. But not this one. Get this, the Yankees and Orioles have played to the Over 41 times in the last 52 meetings, with 10 Unders and one Push. This has a lot to do with the Yankees unreal lineup and the Orioles historic awfulness, but we digress. Tonight?s matchup features the struggling James Paxton (6-6, 4.61 ERA) of the Yankees going up against John Means (8-6, 3.12 ERA) of the Orioles.

Paxtion has an 8.78 ERA in his last three starts and a 5.83 ERA on the road, while Means has an ERA of 6.46 over his last three starts. Means has also never started against the Yankees, which is the same boat Asher Wojciechowski was in last night and he allowed five runs on six hits in four innings, including three dingers. The Over tonight is 10.

PLUNDERING THE PIRATES

The Pirates have settled at the bottom of the NL Central standings after dropping 14 of their previous 16 games and most of that damage has come against division foes. The Buccos have lost five consecutive series against NL Central teams, including losing the first two games of their current series with the Brewers. Pittsburgh has also lost 10 of its last 13 meetings with Milwaukee.

Trevor Williams (4-4, 4.75) gets the call for the Pirates, while the Brewers counter with newly acquired Drew Pomeranz (2-9, 5.54). The Pirates are +115 home dogs with a total of 9.5.

Yankees extend winning streak to 8 with 14-2 rout of Orioles
August 7, 2019
By The Associated Press

BALTIMORE (AP) Gio Urshela and Kyle Higashioka each hit two home runs, and the Yankees' long-ball outburst against the Baltimore Orioles reached historical proportions Wednesday night in a 14-2 blowout that extended New York's winning streak to eight games.

Urshela had a pair of two-run drives, and Higashioka totaled five RBIs with his two shots. It was the first career multihomer game for both players.

The Yankees have 11 players with multihomer games against Baltimore this season, breaking the record of 10 set by San Francisco against the Dodgers in 1958.

Cameron Maybin also went deep for the Yankees, who tied a major league record with 16 home runs in a three-game series. New York has hit 52 homers against the Orioles this season, breaking its own major league mark of 48 against the Kansas City Athletics in 1956.

The frustration of being dominated in this lopsided three-game series reached a boiling point for the last-place Orioles in the middle of the fifth inning. After manager Brandon Hyde leaned over and said something to Chris Davis, the first baseman lurched in Hyde's direction and had to be restrained by teammate Mark Trumbo and hitting coach Don Long.

James Paxton (7-6) allowed one run (a homer by Trey Mancini) over 6 2/3 innings to help the Yankees roll to their 15th straight victory at Camden Yards and 12th in a row overall against the Orioles.

John Means (8-7) took the loss.

METS 7, MARLINS 2

NEW YORK (AP) - Michael Conforto homered twice, Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil hit two-run shots and New York completed a four-game sweep of Miami.

The Mets posted their sixth straight victory, winning for the 13th time in 14 games.

Steven Matz (7-7) won again at Citi Field, helping New York stay in the thick of the NL wild-card race.

Matz (7-7) allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks over 6 2/3 innings, striking out seven.

Lewis Brinson put Miami on the board with an RBI single in the second. Brian Anderson added a solo homer in the sixth, his 18th.

DODGERS 2, CARDINALS 1

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Russell Martin drove a two-run, two-out single up the middle for the Dodgers' 10th walk-off win of the season, and Los Angeles swept St. Louis.

Casey Sadler (2-0) pitched the ninth for Los Angeles, which avoided its first shutout loss since May 18 in dramatic fashion for its fifth straight win.

Dustin May threw 5 2/3 innings of five-hit ball in a strong second career start for the Dodgers, who called up the redheaded power pitcher last week. May had seven strikeouts and held his own with Jack Flaherty, but remained winless in the big leagues.

St. Louis' bullpen couldn't come through for Flaherty, who struck out 10 with just one walk.

BRAVES 11, TWINS 7

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Ozzie Albies homered twice in his second straight four-hit game, Ronald Acuna Jr. and Freddie Freeman both went deep, and Atlanta beat Minnesota.

Max Fried (13-4) used a season-high 10 strikeouts to win his fourth consecutive start, pitching into the sixth inning.

The terrific trio at the top of the lineup provided more than sufficient support, with Acuna, Albies and Freeman combining for eight hits and five RBIs in 15 at-bats.

Charlie Culberson went 4 for 5 with two RBIs, Johan Camargo drove in three runs, and the Braves reached double-digit runs for the second straight day. This was the fifth time in three weeks the Twins allowed 10-plus runs.

Miguel Sano hit a three-run homer in a four-run ninth for the first-place Twins.

WHITE SOX 8, TIGERS 1

DETROIT (AP) - Ivan Nova pitched eight scoreless innings, and Chicago beat Detroit.

Nova (7-9) allowed five hits, walked three and struck out one as he picked up his third win in four starts.

Former Tiger James McCann had three RBIs, while Tim Anderson reached base five times and scored three runs.

The White Sox took three of four games from the Tigers and went 5-2 on their trip to Philadelphia and Detroit.

Detroit has lost six of seven and is 5-21 since the All-Star break.

Tyler Alexander (0-3) allowed five runs on nine hits and a walk in 4 1/3 innings.

BLUE JAYS 4, RAYS 3

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - Reliever Brock Stewart allowed two hits over four scoreless innings in his Toronto debut and win over Tampa Bay.

Blue Jays rookie Bo Bichette set a team record with a double in eight straight games, breaking the mark of seven set by Carlos Delgado in 2000. The 21-year-old Bichette also extended his career-opening hitting streak to 10 games.

Ken Giles picked up his 15th save.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr., Randal Grichuk and Derek Fisher homered for the Blue Jays.

Rays two-way player Brendan McKay (2-2) gave up three runs and six hits in five-plus innings. Tampa Bay has won nine of its last 12.

ASTROS 14, ROCKIES 3

HOUSTON (AP) - Yuli Gurriel drove in a team record-tying eight runs, Gerrit Cole won his 10th straight decision and Houston routed Colorado.

Gurriel hit a three-run homer in the first inning, a sacrifice fly in the third, a three-run double in the fourth and an RBI grounder in the sixth. He tied Houston's RBI record set by J.R. Towles in 2007 against St. Louis.

Cole (14-5) struck out 10 in six innings. He allowed three hits and two runs to make Houston's starters 16-1 in their last 19 starts.

The Astros swept the four-game interleague season series from Colorado. Trevor Story hit his 26th homer and Nolan Arenado added his 25th for the Rockies, who lost for the fifth time in seven games.

BREWERS 8, PIRATES 3

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Keston Hiura hit two home runs and drove in three runs, powering Milwaukee to a three-game sweep of Pittsburgh.

Hiura hit a two-run homer with two out in the first inning and his second homer, the 13th of his rookie season, was a solo shot in the fifth. He also had a double in the third inning for the Brewers, who moved past the St. Louis Cardinals and into second place in the NL Central.

The Pirates fell to 4-21 since the All-Star break.

Junior Guerra (5-3) picked up a second win in as many nights. He allowed one hit and one walk in two innings in relief of Drew Pomeranz.

Williams (4-5) allowed six runs on eight hits in five innings.

Jacob Stallings hit solo homer and Bryan Reynolds and Starling Marte had RBI singles for Pittsburgh.

CUBS 10, ATHLETICS 1

CHICAGO (AP) - Ian Happ hit his second career grand slam, Jose Quintana tossed two-hit ball through seven innings to win his sixth straight and Chicago routed Oakland.

Kyle Schwarber hit a three-run homer, Victor Caratini connected and Javier Baez kept up his latest hot streak with two hits and two RBIs for the Cubs. NL Central-leading Chicago took two of three from the A's and won its fifth in six games.

Quintana (10-7) allowed one run, struck out seven and walked one. David Phelps and Pedro Strop each followed with a scoreless inning to wrap up a three-hitter.

A's starter Homer Bailey (9-8) set down nine of the first 10 hitters before Chicago scored five runs in the fourth. The right-hander yielded seven runs in 4 2/3 innings in his fifth start since arriving in a arriving in a trade from Kansas City on July 14.

MARINERS 3, PADRES 2

SEATTLE (AP) - Mallex Smith doubled leading off the eighth inning and scored when Daniel Vogelbach beat out a potential inning-ending double play, and Seattle snapped a five-game losing streak.

Smith led off the eighth with a sinking liner that Wil Myers couldn't control on a diving attempt. Smith advanced to second when the ball slipped from Myers' hand on the throw and was credited with a double. J.P. Crawford bunted and catcher Austin Hedges appeared to throw out Smith at third base, only to have the call overturned on replay to put runners at the corners with no outs.

Andres Munoz (0-1) struck out Domingo Santana before Vogelbach hit a slow chopper to shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. Tatis had no play at home plate to get Smith and instead tried to turn a double play. Vogelbach shuffled down the line and beat the relay throw, allowing the go-ahead run to score.

Anthony Bass pitched the ninth for his second save and capped four solid innings from Seattle's bullpen. Matt Magill (3-0) pitched the eighth to get the win.

Kyle Seager hit a solo home run for Seattle. Tatis hit his 21st homer of the season leading off the game off Seattle starter Yusei Kikuchi.

INDIANS 2, RANGERS 0, 1ST GAME

INDIANS 5, RANGERS 1, 2ND GAME

CLEVELAND (AP) - Jose Ramirez homered, Cleveland's bullpen combined on a four-hitter and the Indians swept a doubleheader against Texas.

Ramirez's two-run homer helped the Indians win the opener 2-0.

He connected in the second inning of the second game off Lance Lynn (14-7), Franmil Reyes hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh and Carlos Santana, Yasiel Puig and Jason Kipnis drove in runs in the eighth as the Indians improved to 39-16 since June 4 - baseball's best mark over two months.

A.J. Cole (3-1) - Cleveland's third pitcher - got the win by working 2 2/3 scoreless innings. Nick Wittgren got the final five outs for his third save.

Willie Calhoun homered in the eighth for the Rangers.

In the opener, Ramirez connected off Ariel Jurado (6-7), who had blanked the Indians on two singles before allowing the third baseman's 15th homer.

After struggling for three months, Ramirez, a two-time All-Star, has found his rhythm at the perfect time for the hard-charging Indians. Ramirez batted .320 in July and has raised his average by nearly 50 points since June 20.

In the opener, Nick Goody (3-0) replaced rookie starter Zach Plesac in the seventh and pitched two scoreless innings. All-Star closer Brad Hand struck out the side in the ninth for his 28th save.

NATIONALS 4, GIANTS 1

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Gerardo Parra hit a three-run homer against his former team, Joe Ross pitched six shutout innings of three-hit ball and Washington completed a three-game sweep of San Francisco.

Parra broke camp with the Giants but was designated for assignment on May 3. His seventh homer came in the third inning off Shaun Anderson (3-4) and made it 4-0.

Ross (2-3) struck out five and walked two in his third start of the season.

The Giants have lost four straight games and seven of their last eight. They scored in the ninth on Brandon Crawford's RBI double off Daniel Hudson after Tanner Rainey and Wander Suero combined for two scoreless innings.

Anderson gave up four runs on four hits and three walks in three innings.

Adam Eaton got three hits and was hit by a pitch for Washington.

LEADING OFF: Indians take aim at Target, Hamels rolling
August 7, 2019
By The Associated Press

A look at what's happening around the majors Thursday:

TARGET TIME

A couple months ago, Cleveland trailed the Twins by 11 1/2 games in the AL Central and was being written off as too old and too banged-up. But by going a baseball-best 38-16 since June 4, the Indians have closed within two games of Minnesota heading into this four-game series at Target Field.

Mike Clevinger (6-2, 3.07 ERA) starts the opener for the Indians against Kyle Gibson (11-4, 4.02). Clevinger is 3-0 with a 1.80 ERA in his last three road starts.

''Guys are in a good mood, feeling good and excited to get to Minnesota,'' Cleveland second baseman Jason Kipnis said.

HOT AS COLE

Cubs lefty Cole Hamels (6-3, 2.84 ERA) looks to stay on track against Alex Wood (1-0, 3.18) at Cincinnati. Hamels pitched five shutout innings versus Milwaukee last Saturday in his return from a five-week stint on the injured list with a strained oblique, and is 2-2 with a 1.07 ERA in his last seven starts.

Two-time All-Star catcher Jonathan Lucroy is expected to join the Cubs - he signed this week after being cut by the Angels.

STORY BOOKED

Rockies star Trevor Story has homered four times in five games. His 114 career home runs are the most in major league history for a shortstop's first 500 games, surpassing Alex Rodriguez (103), Nomar Garciaparra (101) and Ernie Banks (100).

Story tries to keep his surge going when Colorado visits San Diego.

AVAILABLE

Greg Holland, a three-time All-Star who led the National League in saves in 2017 with 41, has been cut by the Diamondbacks.

The 33-year-old Holland had allowed at least one run in seven of his past 13 appearances. He's 1-2 with a 4.54 ERA run average in 40 games.

Holland has 17 saves in 22 chances, but saw his ERA climb from 2.33 at the end of June to its current number.

STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTERS

STREAKING

Mike Clevinger, Cleveland Indians (6-2, 3.07 ERA, $229): Clevinger is once again healthy and looking like the stud he was in 2017 and 2018. Over his last six starts the lefty is 5-0 with a 1.69 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 49 strikeouts through 37 1-3 innings.

Today, Cleveland and Clevinger begin the their four-game road trip to Minnesota who will have Kyle Gibson on the mound. The Under has also cashed in six of Clevinger's last seven starts against the Twins. Minny is a slim -107 favorite with the O/U installed at 9.

SLUMPING

Chris Sale, Boston Red Sox (5-11, 4.68 ERA, $2,131): It looked like Sale might have found his groove again, then came two starts against the Yankees. The Bronx Bombers throttled the Red Sox?s lefty for 14 runs on 14 hits in just nine innings. Sale has now given up five or more earned runs in five of his last seven starts and is the costliest starter in baseball. That doesn?t matter though. Sale and the Red Sox are big -225 home favorites against the visiting Angels.



MORE BOYD TO LOVE

There is no prop bet in baseball we love more right now that Matt Boyd?s strikeout total. The lefty is punching out batters left and right this season. In fact, Boyd is fourth in the Bigs in strikeouts per nine inngings behind Chris Sale, Gerrit Cole and Max Scherzer. That?s a pretty impressive list. Tonight, his strikeout total against the Royals is set at 7.5 (+115). Boyd has averaged 9.86 strikeouts a start of his last seven starts and hasn?t had fewer than eight over that span. He's also had eight or more in 10 of his last 12.

In Boyd?s has faced the Royals three times this season. His strikeout totals were 10, 7 and 9. And the start where he had seven he only pitched four innings. So, yeah. Take the Over.

Urshela HRs twice, streaking Yanks outslug Bichette, Jays
August 9, 2019
By The Associated Press

TORONTO (AP) Gio Urshela hit two home runs for the second straight game and the New York Yankees outslugged rookie Bo Bichette and the Toronto Blue Jays 12-6 Thursday night to extend their winning streak to a season-best nine games.

Playing in Toronto for the first time, Bichette became the first player in major league history to double in nine consecutive games. He also homered, giving him an unprecedented 13 extra-base hits in his first 11 career games. Bichette is the first rookie to have an extra-base hit in nine straight games since Ted Williams in 1939, according to STATS.

The Yankees have hit a record 19 homers over their last four games, including at least five in each win during a three-game sweep at Baltimore this week. Mike Tauchman also homered Thursday to give New York three connections.

Domingo German (15-2) pitched five innings to win his sixth consecutive decision for New York.

Both of Urshela's homers came off left-hander Thomas Pannone (2-5), who matched a career worst by giving up seven runs in 2 1/3 innings.

Luis Cessa pitched the final three innings for his first save.

RED SOX 3, ANGELS 0

BOSTON (AP) - Chris Sale righted himself and struck out 13 over eight innings of two-hit ball, Sam Travis hit a two-run homer and Boston beat Los Angeles.

Sale (6-11) had allowed 14 runs over nine innings during his previous two starts, both against the rival New York Yankees. He carved up the Angels in his 13th outing with double-digit strikeouts this season.

The Red Sox had lost nine of 10 games, not including's Wednesday's contest against the Royals that was suspended in the 10th inning with the score tied at 4. Thursday's game ran without issue and was over in a tidy 2 hours, 16 minutes. Brandon Workman worked a clean ninth with two strikeouts for his seventh save.

Dillon Peters (2-1) gave up three runs and five hits and struck out eight over six innings.

INDIANS 7, TWINS 5

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Jose Ramirez drove in three runs, Mike Clevinger kept Minnesota quiet with nine strikeouts in seven innings, and Cleveland struck first in this four-game series between the AL Central front-runners to pull within a game of the Twins.

Indians closer Brad Hand ended the game by retiring Eddie Rosario on a routine flyout with the bases loaded, recording his 29th save in dramatic fashion.

RBI singles in the fourth by Luis Arraez and Marwin Gonzalez accounted for two of the three hits managed by the Twins against Clevinger (7-2), who watched four relievers toil through a three-run eighth inning that cut Cleveland's lead to 6-5.

The Twins lost leading home run hitter Nelson Cruz to a strained left wrist, after he swung and missed at a pitch from Clevinger in the fourth. Kyle Gibson (11-5) got them off to an ominous start, giving up six runs in less than five innings behind a career-high six walks.

CUBS 12, REDS 5

CINCINNATI (AP) - Anthony Rizzo had a pair of hits as part of a 30th birthday celebration, Nicholas Castellanos added to his Chicago surge with a pair of homers and the Cubs beat Cincinnati for their biggest NL Central lead of the season.

The Cubs' sixth win in seven games gave them a 3+-game margin over the idle Brewers. Left-hander Cole Hamels struggled, but Tyler Chatwood (5-1) fanned six in three innings as Chicago pulled away.

Reds manager David Bell returned from a six-game suspension for going after Pirates manager Clint Hurdle during a benches-clearing brawl last week at Great American Ball Park.

Castellanos had a pair of solo homers among his three hits, the latter breaking a 5-5 tie off Kevin Gausman (3-8) in the fourth inning. He's hit safely in all eight games since the Cubs got him from Detroit.

Aristides Aquino hit a two-run homer for Cincinnati measured at 118.3 mph, tying the Yankees' Gary Sanchez and Mets' Pete Alonso for the hardest-hit homers this season.

MARLINS 9, BRAVES 2

MIAMI (AP) - Brian Anderson homered twice, Elieser Hernandez (2-4) pitched six shutout innings and Miami beat Atlanta on a rough night for Dallas Keuchel.

Hernandez retired 11 consecutive batters before Ronald Acuna Jr.'s leadoff single in the sixth.

The Marlins chased Keuchel (3-5) with a five-run fourth capped by Anderson's second home run and 20th of the season for an 8-0 lead. Keuchel allowed eight runs and 10 hits in 3 2/3 innings, his shortest outing since joining the Braves on June 10.

TIGERS 10, ROYALS 8

DETROIT (AP) - Jordy Mercer hit a walk-off, two-run homer against Richard Lovelady (0-2) in the ninth inning to lift Detroit over Kansas City.

Travis Demeritte led off the ninth with his third walk of the game and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Jake Rogers. Mercer then hit a 2-1 fastball into the right field stands.

Joe Jimenez (3-6) got the win with a scoreless ninth inning.

GIANTS 5, PHILLES 0
