Thu Jun 22 201700:20MLB roundup: Marlins outlast Scherzer, Nationals
MIAMI -- The Miami Marlins, who were being no-hit and shut out for 7 1/3 innings by Max Scherzer, rallied to defeat the Washington Nationals 2-1 on Wednesday.Scherzer (8-5) had his attempt at a third career no-hitter broken up by backup catcher A.J. Ellis, who hit a comebacker for an infield single with one out in the eighth inning.Ellis, who is hitting only .204, didn't hit the ball particularly hard, but the ball bounced off Scherzer's glove, and shortstop Trea Turner couldn't make the play in time.Pinch hitter J.T. Realmuto reached on a two-out fielding error credited to first baseman Adam Lind, who could not come up with Turner's low throw. Dee Gordon was hit by a pitch to load the bases, and Miami got on the board on a high wild pitch by Scherzer. That tying run was scored by pitcher Jose Urena, who was used as a pinch runner for Ellis.Yankees 8, Angels 4NEW YORK -- Austin Romine tied a career high with three hits, including a two-run double in the sixth inning, as New York snapped a seven-game losing streak.Romine's fifth career three-hit game helped the Yankees stop their longest losing streak since April 2007 and avoid dropping an eighth straight game for the first time since Aug. 19-26, 1995.New York's Didi Gregorius hit a two-run homer and Matt Holliday became the fifth active player to reach 1,200 career RBIs when he hit a solo homer. Aaron Hicks, Starlin Castro and Chase Headley added RBI singles for the Yankees.Royals 6, Red Sox 4KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Salvador Perez went 3-for-3 with a grand slam as Kansas City rallied to defeat Boston.Perez homered in the eighth inning after Red Sox relievers Matt Barnes and Robby Scott (0-1) walked the bases loaded with nobody out. Perez worked the count full before propelling a Scott pitch out to left, scoring Jorge Bonifacio, Lorenzo Cain and Eric Hosmer.Kelvin Herrera pitched around a Jackie Bradley Jr. leadoff double in the ninth to collect his 17th save. Joakim Soria (3-2) worked a perfect eighth to pick up the victory.Indians 5, Orioles 1BALTIMORE -- Francisco Lindor hit a two-run homer and finished with three RBIs, and Carlos Carrasco threw six-plus solid innings as Cleveland defeated Baltimore.The Lindor homer was the big hit in a three-run fifth inning against Orioles starter Kevin Gausman (3-7), which gave the Indians a lead they never lost. Roberto Perez lined an RBI double just before the home run. In the ninth, Lindor added an RBI single as did Jason Kipnis to make it 5-0. That also extended Baltimore's American League-record streak of allowing at least five runs to 18 games -- two shy of the major league mark set by the 1924 Philadelphia Phillies.Brewers 4, Pirates 3MILWAUKEE -- Domingo Santana hit a two-run homer in the seventh inning as Milwaukee rallied past Pittsburgh.The Pirates' Trevor Williams cruised through his first six innings leading 3-1 before giving up a single to Keon Broxton and a double to Orlando Arcia to open the seventh. Tony Watson came on to face pinch hitter Eric Thames, who drove in Broxton to make it a one-run game.Watson struck out Eric Sogard and was replaced by Daniel Hudson. Hudson (1-3) fell behind 2-0 and left a fastball over the plate just enough for Santana, who connected for his 12th of the season to cap a two-hit, three-RBI performance.Twins 4, White Sox 2MINNEAPOLIS -- Jose Berrios allowed two runs and four hits in eight strong innings and Miguel Sano's solo blast in the third inning gave Minnesota the lead for good.Berrios (7-1), who was 3-7 with an 8.02 ERA in 14 starts for Minnesota as a rookie in 2016, struck out eight and walked one. Brandon Kintzler pitched a scoreless ninth for his 19th save in 22 opportunities. The Twins jumped on David Holmberg (1-1) for three runs (one earned) in the third starting with Sano's leadoff homer. Sano turned on Holmberg's 3-0 fastball, sending it 414 feet into the second deck in right-center field for his 18th home run of the season.Blue Jays 7, Rangers 5ARLINGTON, Texas -- Darwin Barney capped Toronto's six-run first inning with a two-run homer and the Blue Jays hung on to defeat Texas.Justin Smoak got the Jays on the board with an RBI single off Tyson Ross (1-1), and two batters later, Steve Pearce added an RBI double. Ryan Goins followed with a two-run double before Darwin Barney capped the inning with his blast.Joe Biagini (2-6) made those runs stand up for his first win since May 12. Pearce went 3-for-3, Smoak was 2-for-5 with two runs and Kendrys Morales also had a pair of hits for the Jays, who finished with 11.Padres 3, Cubs 2CHICAGO -- Wil Myers scored on an eighth-inning bases-loaded walk as San Diego beat Chicago to salvage the finale of a three-game series.Cubs reliever Koji Uehara filled the bases in the Padres' eighth, then walked Luis Torrens with two outs to bring in Myers from third for the go-ahead run.San Diego receiver Phil Maton (1-0) worked a scoreless seventh for the victory as the Padres (29-44) broke a three-game losing streak.Cardinals 7, Phillies 6 (10 innings)PHILADELPHIA -- Tommy Pham hit two home runs, including a game-tying blast in the ninth inning, as St. Louis erased a 5-0 deficit to defeat Philadelphia.The Cardinals took the lead when Jose Martinez led off the 10th inning with a double and advanced to third on a balk by Edubray Ramos (0-6).
