Matt Chapman went deep twice to extend San Francisco's home run streak to 17 games as the visiting Giants beat Colorado to sweep a three-game series.

• Chapman, who earlier Wednesday appealed a one-game suspension from MLB for his actions in a benches-clearing incident a day earlier, also doubled and drove in four runs for San Francisco. Meanwhile, the Giants' 17-game homer streak is the franchise's longest since relocating to San Francisco and second longest in club history.

  Drew Gilbert also homered and Heliot Ramos and Patrick Bailey each had two hits and two runs for the Giants, who have won four in a row and 10 of their past 11. Manager Bob Melvin was ejected at the end of the fifth inning by plate umpire Dan Bellino. Reliever Joel Peguero (1-0) threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings for his first career win, and Ryan Walker got the last two outs for his 14th save.

Barger had a sacrifice fly in the sixth inning and an RBI single in the eighth as the Blue Jays banged out 18 hits to win the decisive contest of the three-game series.

  Cincinnati's Noelvi Marte ripped a two-run double to cap a five-run second inning and added an RBI single in the seventh. Jose Trevino and Matt McLain each drove in two runs for the reeling Reds, who have lost 10 of their last 13 games.

  Braves 5, Cubs 1

  Ha-Seong Kim blasted a go-ahead three-run homer in the seventh inning to help visiting Atlanta avoid a sweep of the three-game series with a win against Chicago.

  Kim, who was claimed off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday, slammed the first pitch he saw from Drew Pomeranz over the fence in left to give Atlanta a 3-1 lead. Atlanta starter Bryce Elder (6-9) allowed one run, which was unearned, and four hits over seven innings.

  Chicago starter Cade Horton threw five no-hit innings before he was replaced after 75 pitches.

  Rays 9, Mariners 4

  Junior Caminero drove in runs in back-to-back four-run innings, Yandy Diaz went 5-for-5 and Tampa Bay ran its winning streak to six in a sweep-claiming blowout of visiting Seattle.

  The Rays won for the ninth time in 11 games and moved to within 2 1/2 games of the Mariners for the third American League wild-card spot. Chandler Simpson and Jake Mangum had three hits apiece in Tampa Bay's season-high 19-hit explosion.

  Marlins starter Eury Perez (6-5) gave up seven runs on eight hits in four innings. Joey Wiemer socked his first home run of the year.

  Orioles 7, Padres 5

  Baltimore used the long ball early, then held on to beat San Diego and complete a three-game road sweep.

  The Orioles led 7-0 after the third inning as they got back-to-back-to-back home runs by Colton Cowser, Coby Mayo and Alex Jackson, all off Nestor Cortes (2-4). It was the second time this season Baltimore has hit three homers in a row. Jackson Holliday also went deep off Cortes to start the game for his 16th homer and third leadoff shot of the season. Cade Povich (3-7) benefited from the offensive outburst to notch his first victory since June 15 and his first as a starter since April 24. In five-plus innings, the lefty gave up four runs on seven hits.

  Manny Machado hit a two-run homer off Povich in the sixth, and Fernando Tatis Jr. led off the San Diego seventh with a homer off Keegan Akin. Cortes lasted just 2 1/3 innings, allowing six runs on seven hits.

  Pirates 3, Dodgers 0

  Bryan Reynolds and Andrew McCutchen each homered and Joey Bart hit an RBI double to propel host Pittsburgh past Los Angeles.

  The Pirates have won four of their past five games and are 11-4 over their past 15. Pittsburgh's hitting was enough to back up a stellar effort from Braxton Ashcraft, Mike Burrows (2-4), Evan Sisk, Isaac Mattson and Dennis Santana, who combined to allow just five hits in Pittsburgh's MLB-leading 17th shutout this season.

  The Dodgers have lost four of their past five games. Emmet Sheehan (5-3) got the call to start after Shohei Ohtani was scratched from his scheduled start and served as Los Angeles' DH. Manager Dave Roberts said pregame that Ohtani was dealing with a chest cold. Ohtani still recorded two hits, including his 20th double of the season.

  Guardians 8, Red Sox 1

  Gabriel Arias hit a two-run home run in a six-run second inning that propelled Cleveland to a win over host Boston.

  Romy Gonzalez collected two of the Red Sox's seven hits. Brennan Bernardino (4-3), one of five pitchers the Red Sox used, exited the mound after recording two outs in the first inning, giving up a run on one hit and one walk. Jordan Hicks then surrendered four of the six runs Cleveland scored in the second.

  Brewers 6, Phillies 3

  Isaac Collins' three-run homer highlighted a ferocious start by Milwaukee in a win over visiting Philadelphia.

  Jose Quintana (11-5) allowed three runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings for the Brewers, who scratched Christian Yelich due to low back soreness. Milwaukee didn't need him early as they scored five runs before the Phillies recorded an out. Sal Frelick singled on a play that also featured a throwing error by center fielder Harrison Bader, allowing two runs to score. Then Collins smacked one over the right field wall for his ninth homer of the year.

  Philadelphia starter Aaron Nola (3-8) was charged with six runs on six hits in five innings. Weston Wilson's two-run homer was the offensive highlight for the Phillies.

  Angels 4, Royals 3

  Jo Adell clubbed a three-run, go-ahead homer in the sixth inning, then drove in the tiebreaking run with an infield single in the eighth and visiting Los Angeles beat Kansas City.

  Clayton Dana, recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake to start for the Angels, allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits over five innings, and Reid Detmers retired the side in the ninth to notch his third save. With these back-to-back wins, the Angels secured their first winning road series since July 18-20 and improved to 5-4 on their 10-game trip.

  Michael Massey had two hits for the Royals, a wild-card contender who has lost seven of 11. Kansas City's Ryan Bergert allowed just one run on one hit over five-plus innings.

  Cardinals 5, Athletics 1

  Willson Contreras drove in four runs as St. Louis defeated the visiting Athletics in the decisive game of a three-game series.

  White Sox 4, Twins 3

  Michael A. Taylor hit a two-run double in the ninth inning to lift Chicago to a comeback win over host Minnesota.

  Brooks Baldwin also drove in a run as part of a three-run inning for the White Sox, who trailed 3-1 entering the ninth. The rally snapped a string of 205 consecutive losses for Chicago when trailing after eight innings. Rookie reliever Grant Taylor (1-4) earned his first career victory, allowing one hit in 1 1/3 scoreless innings. The White Sox won their fourth game in a row and their fifth straight against the Twins.

  Royce Lewis went 3-for-4 with an RBI and two stolen bases to lead Minnesota. Luke Keaschall doubled in a run and Byron Buxton had a double and a triple. Right-hander Justin Topa (1-5) gave up one run on two hits in two-thirds of an inning as the Twins' bullpen spoiled a quality start by right-hander Zebby Matthews, who limited Chicago to one run on three hits in six innings.

San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman has been suspended one game for pushing Colorado Rockies starter Kyle Freeland during a benches-clearing incident Tuesday night at Coors Field, MLB announced Wednesday.

• Chapman's suspension was supposed to begin Wednesday, but he's appealed the decision.

  Freeland, Giants shortstop Willy Adames and slugger Rafael Devers were fined undisclosed amounts.

  Tuesday's incident began when Devers took his time admiring his first-inning two-run homer off Freeland, who took offense. The two began yelling at each other as Devers walked up the first-base line.

  As more players began to converge near the mound, Chapman entered the fray and pushed Freeland. Adames also made contact with the Rockies hurler as both benches cleared.

  Chapman, Freeland and Adames were all ejected. Devers didn't finish rounding the bases until eight minutes after his 397-foot home run, according to MLB.com.

  "I just found it extremely disrespectful to show me up like that in the first inning after hitting a home run," Freeland told reporters postgame.

  "Standing there watching it, taking your sweet time getting down to first base. I've been in this league for quite some time, and I know he has as well. I just find that extremely disrespectful and felt that I needed to let him know about that."

  "I didn't do anything wrong," Devers told reporters in Spanish. "I didn't do anything different from when I hit a home run. I don't know why it bothered him."

  The two teams will meet again Wednesday night at 8:40 p.m. ET to finish off their three-game series. San Francisco is looking to sweep Colorado after taking the first two contests.

Three-time MVP Shohei Ohtani was scratched from pitching detail for the Los Angeles Dodgers' road game with the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday.

• Manager Dave Roberts told reporters that Ohtani was feeling under the weather but was feeling well enough to hit. Ohtani will remain in the lineup as leadoff hitter and designated hitter, while right-hander Emmet Sheehan will replace him on the mound.

  Roberts alluded to Ohtani feeling ill the past couple of days, including Tuesday's affair in which he hit a double and a home run with two RBIs in a 7-9 loss.

  Ohtani, 31, is coming off his first win of the season on the mound, a 5-1 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Aug. 27. That outing, also his longest of the season at five innings, saw him strike out nine, walk two and surrender two hits and a run.

  The five-time All-Star is batting .279 with 46 home runs and 87 RBIs this year. His ERA sits at 4.18 over 32 1/3 innings.

  Sheehan, 25, is 5-2 with a 3.56 ERA this season.

  Los Angeles entered Wednesday 2 1/2 games ahead of the San Diego Padres in the NL West.

An unusual sequence between the battery of Houston Astros pitcher Framber Valdez and catcher Cesar Salazar during the home loss to the New York Yankees on Tuesday night sparked speculation that Valdez intentionally hit his teammate in the chest with a pitch.

• The teammates dismissed the idea, with Valdez apologizing for miscommunication on pitch selection after the 7-1 loss, and Valdez's agent took extra steps Wednesday to defend his client.

  "There's no questioning what Framber is and what he represents to the team and his thought process on the team," agent Ulises Cabrera, who represents Valdez, told the Houston Chronicle on Wednesday.

  "The idea that he's intentionally trying to injure one of his teammates is preposterous. It's a complete lack of respect for who he is as a person and who he is as a player. And his body of work demonstrates that. Anything to the contrary is just completely misguided and it's not right."

  Valdez, 31, who has spent his entire major league career with Houston and earned All-Star nods in 2022 and 2023, got into trouble when loading the bases in the Yankees' half of the fifth inning with the Astros down 2-0.

  When Valdez appeared to shake off Salazer's sign for a curveball on a 1-0 pitch to New York's Trent Grisham, the catcher waved at him to step off the mound. Instead, Valdez threw a sinker, which Grisham blasted for a grand slam.

  The Yankees' Anthony Volpe was the next batter. With a 1-0 count, a sinker hit Salazar's chest protector, catching him off guard because he was expecting a curveball. Valdez turned his back to the plate and paused as Salazar and Volpe stared at him.

  Valdez explained after the game through interpreter Otto Loor that "we got crossed up."

  "When we got down to the dugout, I excused myself with (Salazar) and I said sorry to him and I take full responsibility for that," Valdez said. "He called for a curveball, but I was already in mind that I was going to throw a sinker so that's what I threw and that's what happened."

  Both Salazar and Valdez said they have a good relationship, with Valdez saying, "I would never want to hurt somebody on purpose, but it's stuff that happened and we were able to talk through it. We're good."

  Salazer, 29, said he pressed the wrong button on the PitchCom transmitter, and no one heard it as the home ballpark, with many Yankees fans celebrating, remained buzzing after Grisham's homer.

  "It was a big spot for the Yankees," Salazar said. "The stadium was loud and I thought I pressed the button, but I pressed the wrong button and I was expecting another pitch, but that was it. I pressed the wrong button and yeah, that's what it was."

  Valdez's agent, Cabrera, said his client didn't expect observers to think he intentionally hit Salazar with the pitch.

  "In no way, shape or form does the starting pitcher intentionally try to hurt his teammate," Cabrera told the Chronicle. "Mix-ups happen all the time, just like a pitcher shaking (off a pitch) all the time. This is just not an issue.

  "But it does become an issue when people question Framber's quality as a teammate and his interest in defending his fellow players in the dugout on the field. He messed up. He admitted it. He got mixed up, done. But to suggest anything other than that is just wrong and it's not acceptable."

  Valdez took the loss, allowing six runs on eight hits -- including two home runs -- and one walk, with eight strikeouts over five innings.

The Seattle Mariners claimed veteran left-hander Jose Castillo off waivers from the New York Mets on Wednesday.

• In a corresponding move to open a spot on the 40-man roster, the Mariners designated left-hander Joe Jacques, a minor leaguer, for assignment.

  Castillo, 29, last pitched on Friday, allowing one run on four hits with two strikeouts and no walks in two innings of a 19-9 home win over the Miami Marlins. He was designated for assignment on Saturday.

  He was a combined 1-2 with a 4.98 ERA, nine walks and 22 strikeouts in 21 2/3 innings over 21 relief appearances this season for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Mets.

  Castillo, who missed the entire 2021 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery, is a career 4-5 with a 4.50 ERA, 25 walks and 77 strikeouts in 62 innings for the San Diego Padres (2018-19, 2022-23), Diamondbacks (2025) and Mets (2025).

  Jacques, 30, was acquired by the Mariners from the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 2 for right-hander Will Klein. He has pitched this season for the Dodgers' and Mariners' Triple-A affiliates, going a combined 2-1 with three saves, a 6.51 ERA, 22 walks and 53 strikeouts in 47 innings over 42 games (one start).

  His major league career spans parts of two seasons with the Boston Red Sox (2023-24) and Diamondbacks (2024). He is 2-1 with one save, a 5.46 ERA, 11 walks and 22 strikeouts in 29 2/3 innings over 25 games (one start).

Boston rookie outfielder Roman Anthony was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain and is expected to miss four to six weeks, Red Sox manager Alex Cora told WEEI Radio on Wednesday.

• Anthony grabbed his back after he struck out in the fourth inning of Boston's 11-7 triumph over Cleveland (68-69) on Tuesday. He was replaced in right field by Nate Eaton in the top of the fifth by the Red Sox (78-62).

  "He's going on the IL. He has an oblique strain," Cora said Wednesday. "Timetable, we don't know... Usually takes from 4-6 weeks."

  The left-handed-hitting Anthony said he first felt discomfort during a check swing earlier in the at-bat.

  "Pretty sudden," he said after Tuesday's game. "I'm hoping for the best and staying positive, but any time I'm not out there, I'm pretty (angry). It (stinks)."

  Anthony was named the American League Rookie of the Month for August on Wednesday morning.

  He has been one of Boston's most productive offensive players since he was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on June 9. He's batting .292 with a .396 on-base percentage and a .463 slugging percentage in 71 games with the Red Sox. He has eight home runs, 18 doubles, 32 RBIs and 48 runs.

  The Red Sox already are down one outfielder; Wilyer Abreu has been on the injured list since Aug. 21, retroactive to Aug. 18, with a right calf strain.

  Boston looks to complete a sweep of a three-game series against Cleveland on Wednesday night at Fenway Park.

The Baltimore Orioles reinstated pitcher Tyler Wells from the 60-day injured list and he will make the start Tuesday in San Diego.

• Wells, 31, has not pitched since April 12, 2024, and was placed on the 15-day injured list four days later with right elbow inflammation.

  In June 2024, Wells underwent right elbow revision ulnar collateral ligament surgery with UCL repair and internal brace augmentation, as opposed to Tommy John surgery that was supposed to require a longer rehabilitation process. However, the recovery period was essentially the same.

  Wells made six minor league rehab appearances between Triple-A Norfolk and Double-AA Chesapeake and compiled a 2.49 ERA, fanning 24 batters in 25 1/3 innings.

  In parts of four seasons with Baltimore, Wells owns a 16-18 record with a 4.06 ERA in 95 games (46 starts).

  Wells produced his best season in 2023 when he posted a 7-6 record, 3.64 ERA and 0.99 WHIP over 25 games (20 starts).

  The Orioles also reinstated infielder Jorge Mateo from the 60-day IL. Mateo has not appeared in a major league game since June 6 due to elbow and hamstring injuries. He was hitting .180 with 14 stolen bases in 15 attempts.

  Mateo, 30, is a .222 career hitter with 105 stolen bases in six seasons with the Padres (2020-21) and Orioles (2021-present). He stole 35 bases in 2022 -- second-most in the majors.

  Baltimore optioned catcher Maverick Handley to Triple-A Norfolk and designated right-handed pitchers Corbin Martin and Elvin Rodriguez for assignment.

A leisurely Rafael Devers home run trot spawned three ejections in the first inning of the San Francisco Giants' game against the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night in Denver.

• Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Kyle Freeland and San Francisco's Matt Chapman and Willy Adames were ejected after the benches cleared and punches were thrown.

  On the eighth pitch of the game -- a hanging Freeland curveball -- Devers lofted a towering fly ball that landed roughly eight rows deep in the right field stands. Devers took his time leaving the batter's box while tracking the flight of his two-run homer, which drew Freeland's ire. Devers started backpedaling toward first base so he could exchange words with the Rockies left-hander as both teams charged toward the mound.

  Chapman was the first to reach Freeland and gave him a shove. While home plate umpire Phil Cuzzi pushed Chapman away, Adames jumped in and appeared to cock his right arm to throw a punch at Freeland.

  After things got under control, the umpires huddled and announced the ejections. Antonio Senzatela took over on the mound, while Casey Schmitt and Dominic Smith pinch-hit for Adames and Chapman, respectively.

The Arizona Diamondbacks confirmed Tuesday that Lourdes Gurriel Jr. tore his right anterior cruciate ligament in the outfield during their game against the Texas Rangers on Monday in Phoenix.

• Gurriel, 31, was placed on the 10-day injured list for the time being, but he faces a lengthy recovery from an injury that often sidelines NFL players for around a year.

  Arizona manager Torey Lovullo told reporters before the Tuesday game that Gurriel likely would require reconstructive surgery, though the team was gathering second opinions.

  "He's trying to understand why it happened and what the next several days, ... weeks and months and potentially year will look like," Lovullo said.

  "I hurt for him and I could tell he was hurting. I told him that we're going to be OK, because what we do here is we pick one another up. Don't worry about what we're doing, we've got you."

  The play occurred on the final out of the top of the sixth inning, when Texas' Rowdy Tellez hit a line drive to left-center. Gurriel pursued the ball from his post in left field and rookie Blaze Alexander came at it from center.

  Alexander made an athletic catch while Gurriel made an awkward leap out of Alexander's path to avoid a collision. Gurriel stayed on the ground in obvious pain for several minutes and was eventually carted off the field.

  An All-Star in 2023, Gurriel has split his eight-year major league career between the Toronto Blue Jays (2018-22) and Diamondbacks. He is a career .274 batter with 129 home runs and 491 RBIs in 875 games.

  Through 129 games this season, Gurriel had 19 homers and 80 RBIs with a .248 batting average.

  The Diamondbacks replaced Gurriel on the roster by calling up infielder Connor Kaiser from Triple-A Reno. Kaiser, 28, went 2-for-14 (.143) with two RBIs in five games for Arizona previously this year, all in August.

  In other moves, Arizona optioned right-hander reliever Juan Burgos from Reno and called up right-handed reliever Taylor Rashi.

Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout was scratched from the starting lineup Tuesday against the host Kansas City Royals due to a skin infection, according to the team.

• No further details were given about the three-time American League MVP, who played Monday and went 1-for-4 with a run. Trout recorded three hits in the last two games after going 1-for-24 in his previous seven contests.

  Trout, 34, is batting .231 with 20 home runs and 54 RBIs in 108 games this season, his 15th campaign with the Angels.

  He was originally slated to bat third as the designated hitter for Los Angeles. Instead, cleanup batter Jo Adell switched from right field to DH. Chris Taylor drew into the lineup in right field and is batting sixth, among other tweaks to the original order.

The New York Mets placed outfielder Tyrone Taylor on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday because of a strained left hamstring.

• The move is retroactive to Saturday. In a corresponding move, the Mets recalled outfielder Jared Young from Triple-A Syracuse. New York also optioned left-hander Brandon Waddell to Syracuse and recalled right-hander Kevin Herget from the affiliate.

  Regarded as the team's top defensive outfielder, Taylor, 31, has not played since Friday, when he went 2-for-5 with two doubles and four RBIs in a 19-9 win over the visiting Miami Marlins.

  "We didn't want to push it, obviously, and put him at risk," manager Carlos Mendoza said on Tuesday. "We just decided to kinda slow this thing down and put him on the IL. Hopefully, it's not too long."

  Taylor is batting .218 with two home runs and 25 RBIs in 109 games, but since the All-Star break has hit .245 (12-for-49) with a .654 OPS in 23 games.

  For his career, Taylor is batting .237 with 50 homers and 196 RBIs in 570 games for the Milwaukee Brewers (2019-23) and Mets (2024-present). The Brewers selected him in the second round of the 2012 MLB Draft.

  Young, 30, has hit .222 (7-for-41) with three homers and five RBIs in 18 games for New York. He played for the Mets' Single-A and Triple-A affiliates this season and batted a combined .308 with 16 homers, 48 RBIs and a .978 OPS.

  Herget, 34, spent time with the Atlanta Braves this season (1-0, 0.00 ERA, one inning) before signing a minor league contract with New York (0-0, 1.29), where he has three relief appearances for a total of seven innings.

  Waddell, 31, had no decisions and a 3.45 ERA with 11 walks and 22 strikeouts in 31 1/3 innings over 11 games (one start) for the Mets.

The Atlanta Braves activated infielder Ha-Seong Kim from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday, one day after claiming him off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays.

• Kim, who had been dealing with low back inflammation, hasn't played since Aug. 19.

  In other moves, the Braves designated right-hander Wander Suero for assignment, placed outfielder Jurickson Profar on the paternity list, optioned right-hander Hunter Stratton to the Triple-A Gwinnett Stripers and selected the contract of left-hander Hayden Harris from Gwinnett.

  Kim, 29, is hitting .214 with two home runs and five RBIs in just 24 games this season as he has faced various injuries, including to his back and recovering from right shoulder surgery he underwent in October 2024 while with the San Diego Padres.

  Kim began his MLB career with the Padres, tallying a .242 batting average, 200 RBIs and 47 HRs in 540 games.

  He was the first Asian-born infielder to win a Golden Glove, which he won alongside San Diego teammate Fernando Tatis Jr. in 2023. Earlier this year, Kim inked a two-year, $29M contract with the Rays that includes a player option for 2026 which would pay him $16 million.

  Suero, who turns 34 on Sept. 15, had an 11.37 ERA with four walks and seven strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings over five relief appearances in his first season with Atlanta.

  Stratton, 28, was 0-1 with one save, a 1.86 ERA, two walks and seven strikeouts in 9 2/3 innings across six relief appearances for the Braves, who acquired him from Pittsburgh on July 1. Stratton was 0-0 with a 23.63 ERA in 2 2/3 innings over three relief appearances for the Pirates this season.

  Profar, 32, is batting .258 with 12 home runs and 37 RBIs in 58 games in his first season with Atlanta. He received an 80-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance, Chorionic Gonadotropin, four games into the season

  A first-time All-Star last season in San Diego, Profar is a career .245 hitter with 123 homers and 481 RBIs in 1,177 games for the Texas Rangers (2012-13, 2016-18), Athletics (2019), Padres (2020-22, 2023-24), Colorado Rockies (2023) and Braves.

  Harris, 26, has pitched this season for the Braves' Triple-A and Double-A affiliates, going a combined 6-0 with four saves, a 0.56 ERA, 16 walks and 73 strikeouts in 48 innings over 39 relief appearances. The Augusta native played at Georgia Southern in Statesboro and would be making his major league debut.

Arizona Diamondbacks left fielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. was carted off the field on Monday due to a right leg injury that occurred when he averted a collision with a teammate.

• With two outs in the sixth inning, the Texas Rangers' Rowdy Tellez hit a line drive to left-center field, and Arizona center fielder Blazer Alexander made a diving catch. However, on the play, Gurriel jumped behind Alexander to get out of the way and took an awkward fall.

  Gurriel immediately grabbed his right knee and teammates summoned the club's medical personnel. Eventually Gurriel stepped onto a cart that drove him away.

  After the Diamondbacks lost 7-5 in 10 innings, Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said Gurriel would have an MRI exam on Tuesday.

  Lovullo added, "Say some prayers for him tonight. It's a situation where we're going to hope for the best, but I don't think it looks great."

  Alexander was playing center field for the first time in his major league career. He said, according to MLB.com, "I made the play and I had no idea what kind of happened behind me. I made the play, I was kind of looking at the crowd and started running in. I see (shortstop Geraldo) Perdomo running towards me. I was like, what's going on? Looked back and Gurriel was down."

  Gurriel, 31, went 0-for-2 on Monday, leaving him with a .248 average, a .295 on-base percentage and a .419 slugging percentage in 129 games this year. He has 19 homers, 80 RBIs and a career-high 10 stolen bases.

  After playing for the Toronto Blue Jays from 2018-22, Gurriel signed as a free agent with the Diamondbacks and was an All-Star in his first year with his new team, when he hit .261/.309/.463 with 24 homers and 82 RBIs in 145 games.

  In eight major league seasons, Gurriel has a career .274/.319/.454 batting line with 129 home runs and 491 RBIs in 875 games.

  Orioles 4, Padres 3

  Dylan Beavers' RBI single snapped a seventh-inning tie and visiting Baltimore went on to beat San Diego.

  Jeremiah Jackson went 3-for-5 for the Orioles. Reliever Dietrich Enns (2-2) pitched 2 1/3 innings and Keegan Akin worked the ninth for his fourth save as Baltimore won for just the third time in 12 games.

  Padres reliever Jason Adam (8-4) exited the game after hurting his left leg, and manager Mike Shildt said postgame that the reliever ruptured his quadriceps tendon. Luis Arraez collected three hits as San Diego took its fourth loss in five games.

  Phillies 10, Brewers 8

  Brandon Marsh singled in the go-ahead run in the ninth inning as Philadelphia rallied for a wild victory at Milwaukee.

  Kyle Schwarber walked to open the ninth off Abner Uribe (2-2). J.T. Realmuto worked a one-out walk and Marsh followed with an RBI single to right. Harrison Bader drove in another run with a bloop single to right.

  Philadelphia went in front 8-6 in the eighth on RBI doubles by Bader and Bryson Stott, but the Brewers tied it in the bottom half against David Robertson (2-0) on Isaac Collins' pinch-hit, bases-loaded single with two outs. Brewers starter Jacob Misiorowski allowed three runs and six hits in 4 1/3 innings.

  Cubs 7, Braves 6 (10 innings)

  Carson Kelly hit a game-tying two-run homer in the eighth and a walk-off single in the 10th to lift Chicago over visiting Atlanta.

  It was a 3-3 game until Narvaez delivered his pinch-hit single with the bases loaded in the fifth inning. Story's home run traveled 306 feet, and was originally ruled a foul ball when it popped out of right fielder Jhonkensy Noel's glove and fell into the crowd. The Red Sox challenged, and it was ruled that the ball hit the foul pole when it came out of Noel's glove.

  Kyle Manzardo hit a solo home run for the Guardians, who also received three hits from Steven Kwan.

  Astros 8, Angels 3

  Pitching in the bigs for the first time in 28 months, Luis Garcia allowed just three hits and three runs over six innings to help Houston split its four-game set with visiting Los Angeles.

San Diego Padres All-Star reliever Jason Adam toppled to the surface of the mound Monday night and had to be carted off the field after trying to field a ground ball in the top of the seventh inning against the Baltimore Orioles.

• After the game, a 4-3 Padres' loss, manager Mike Shildt said Adam suffered a ruptured quadriceps tendon.

  "Our prognosis early is not favorable," Shildt said. "I mean, things can change, but it's a quad tendon rupture. It's pretty clear and pretty serious.

  "Don't want to be too bleak but it's not overly positive."

  Adam will undergo an MRI to confirm the rupture, which would end his outstanding 2025 season. The recovery time is between six and nine months, so he should return early in the 2026 campaign.

  In his second inning of work, Adam had a runner on first and one out and was facing Gunnar Henderson. Henderson hit a grounder up the middle and Adam attempted to move from left-to-right for the ball, but crumpled to the ground as the ball got past him for an infield single.

  He was replaced by Robert Suarez, who gave up a two-out single to Dylan Beavers that scored the go-ahead run and tagged Adam (8-4) with the loss.

  Adam, 34, has been a stalwart in San Diego in his two seasons. He came over from Tampa Bay at the 2024 trade deadline and, entering this evening's game, had a 1.58 ERA for the Padres in 91 career games.

  He was making his 65th appearance of the season on Monday and likely finishes the season with a 1.93 ERA, fanning 70 batters in 65 1/3 innings.

  Adam has pitched for Kansas City (2018), Toronto (2019), the Chicago Cubs (2020-21) and Tampa Bay (2022-24).

Outfielder Jackson Merrill was reinstated to the San Diego Padres' active roster on Monday after his third stint on the injured list this season.

• Merrill was available to play Monday night, but not in the starting lineup against the Baltimore Orioles for the first of a three-game set in San Diego.

  Merrill, 22, was placed on the IL on August 23 with a sprained left ankle, with the move retroactive to August 20. He last played on August 17 in a 5-4 loss at the Los Angeles Dodgers.

  The second-year pro also spent time on the 10-day IL in early April (strained right hamstring) and on the 7-day IL in mid-June (concussion).

  After a brilliant rookie season when he hit .292, bashed 24 home runs and drove in 90 runs, Merrill has had a quieter 2025 with a .261 batting average, nine homers and 51 RBIs.

  Padres manager Mike Shildt had to revise the lineup tonight as right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr. was a late scratch with "lower half tightness." Bryce Johnson got the start in center and Ramon Laureano started in right.

  The Padres also recalled right-handed reliever Sean Reynolds (0-1, 5.55 ERA) from Triple-A El Paso. The second-year pro has pitched in 18 games for the Padres in 2025 and allowed 15 earned runs in 24 1/3 innings.

The Atlanta Braves have claimed former Rays and Padres infielder Ha-Seong Kim on waivers, according to multiple reports.

• Kim began his MLB career with San Diego, tallying a .242 batting average, 200 RBIs and 47 HRs.

  He was the first Asian-born infielder to win a Golden Glove, which he won alongside San Diego teammate Fernando Tatis Jr. in 2023. Earlier this year, Kim inked a two-year, $29M contract with the Rays, which included a first-year opt-out.

  Kim's tenure with the Rays has been filled with injuries, beginning the season on 60-day IL for a shoulder surgery he underwent in October 2024 to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder he suffered with the Padres. After his debut with the Rays on July 4, he was sidelined once again for tightness in his right calf, and finally placed on 10-day IL in late July for lower back inflammation.

  His short tenure with Tampa Bay tallied a final stat line of 24 games, a .214 batting average, five RBIs and two HRs.

  Kim is ready to come off the IL for his back injury, as the Braves aim to add him as a key piece for the last month of the season, being 17 games back in the National League East. His play will most likely determine what Atlanta does with his $16 million player option for 2026, as he turns 30 next month.

  To make room on the 40-man roster, the Braves transferred infielder Austin Riley, who had season-ending core surgery, to the 60-day IL.

  --Field Level Media

The Los Angeles Dodgers added right-hander Michael Kopech and utility player Hyeseong Kim to their expanded roster Monday.

• Kopech, who was acquired at the trade deadline from the Chicago White Sox last season, has made just eight appearances in 2025 because of various injuries. He has not allowed a run this season in seven innings pitched.

  Kopech, 29, had elbow and shoulder soreness starting in spring training then needed surgery for a meniscus tear following a short pitching stint in June.

  In 10 playoff appearances (nine innings) last season, Kopech was 1-0 with a 3.00 ERA, including 3 2/3 innings over four World Series appearances against the New York Yankees.

  Kim, 26, made his major league debut May 3 and was batting .304 with two home runs and 12 stolen bases in 58 games before missing just over a month due to left shoulder bursitis.

  The Dodgers, who have a two-game lead in the National League West, open a three-game series at Pittsburgh on Tuesday to begin a six-game road trip that also includes a visit to Baltimore.

The Miami Marlins placed right-hander Edward Cabrera on the 15-day injured list Monday with an elbow sprain as their pitching injury woes continued.

• Cabrera joins right-handers Janson Junk (forearm) and Ryan Gusto (shoulder) on the IL, while right-hander Max Meyer (hip) and Braxton Garrett (elbow) already have been lost for the season.

  Cabrera, 27, was 7-7 with a 3.57 ERA in 24 starts this season, avoiding the IL in July after recovering from elbow discomfort during the All-Star break.

  In five seasons with the Marlins, Cabrera is 24-29 with a 4.09 ERA in 87 appearances (85 starts).

  With rosters expanding to 28 on Monday, Miami recalled right-hander Michael Petersen from Triple-A Jacksonville and selected the contracts of right-hander Luarbert Arias and catcher Brian Navarreto from Jacksonville.

  To open spots on the 40-man roster, right-handers Tyler Zuber (lat) and Anthony Bender (leg) were moved to the 60-day IL.

The wild-card eligible Seattle Mariners called up top catching prospect Harry Ford on Monday as rosters expanded to 28 players throughout baseball.

• The Mariners also recalled infielder Leo Rivas from Triple-A Tacoma, while they selected the contract of right-hander Luke Jackson. Right-hander Sauryn Lao was designated for assignment and veteran infielder Donovan Solano was released.

  Ford, who is set for his major league debut, is considered the fourth best overall prospect in the Mariners' system by MLB Pipeline and No. 40 overall in the majors. A first-round pick by Seattle in the 2021 draft out of North Cobb High School in Kennesaw, Ga., the 22-year-old was batting .283 with 16 home runs and 74 RBIs in 97 games at Tacoma.

  Rivas, 27, was batting .283 in 30 games with the Mariners earlier this season, while Jackson, 34, was a combined 2-5 with a 454 ERA in 42 combined relief appearances for the Texas Rangers and Detroit Tigers this season. Solano, 37, batted .252 with three homers and 21 RBIs in 69 games this season.

The Los Angeles Angels activated infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor from the injured list Monday after more than a month away because of a fractured left hand.

• Second baseman Christian Moore was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake, while the Angels purchased the contracts of infielder Scott Kingery and left-hander Mitch Farris from Salt Lake.

  Outfielder Taylor Ward is not expected to go on the IL after he crashed into the wall at Houston on Sunday and opened a cut over his eye that required 20 stitches. Ward was not in the lineup Monday against the Astros but expects to play in the coming days after being cleared of a concussion.

  Outfielder Gustavo Campero (ankle) and right-hander Carson Fulmer (elbow) were moved to the 60-day injured list to open up 40-man roster spots for Kingery and Farris.

  Taylor, 35, has spent two stints on the IL because of a hand fracture since he was signed by the Angels as a free agent on May 26 following 10 seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

  Taylor was 7-for-37 (.189) over his first 15 games with the Angels. In 12 major league seasons with the Seattle Mariners (2014-16), Dodgers (2016-25) and Angels, he is a career .249 hitter with 109 home runs and 437 RBIs in 1,108 games.

  Moore, 22, made his major league debut June 13 and was batting .195 with four home runs and 12 RBIs in 39 games.

  Kingery, 31, was batting .160 over 14 games with the Angels earlier this season, while Farris, 24, is being called up to the major leagues for the first time after going 3-8 with a 4.27 ERA and 142 strikeouts in 23 appearances (22 starts) at Double-A Rocket City.

The Kansas City Royals placed second baseman Jonathan India on the 10-day injured list Monday with a sprained left wrist.

• India, 28, has not played since Friday when he went 0-for-4 against the Detroit Tigers. He is batting .232 with eight home runs and 41 RBIs in 124 games his first season with the Royals.

  A career .249 hitter, India has 71 home runs and 270 RBIs over 647 games with the Cincinnati Reds (2021-24) and Royals.

  The Royals also activated outfielder/first baseman Jac Cagliaone off the injured list as rosters expanded to 28 on Monday, while recalling right-hander Luinder Avila and catcher Carter Jansen, who is the team's No. 2 overall prospect, according to MLB Pipeline.

  Cagliaone, 22, was the sixth overall pick of the 2024 draft. He is batting just .147 with five homers and 10 RBIs in 41 games since being promoted to the majors and making his debut on June 3.

  --Field Level Media

The Los Angeles Dodgers agreed with left-hander Andrew Heaney on a minor league deal Monday, marking his third official stint in the organization since 2014.

• Heaney was released by the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday and the Oklahoma native is expected to report to Triple-A Oklahoma City. He is playoff eligible if he gets called up to the major leagues.

  Heaney was a regular in the Pirates' starting rotation this season but was moved to the bullpen amid ongoing struggles. After two relief outings, he was designated for assignment last Tuesday before he was released.

  Heaney was 5-10 this season with a 5.39 ERA over 26 appearances (23 starts), with 84 strikeouts in 120 1/3 innings pitched.

  The former first-round draft pick (ninth selection overall) of the Miami Marlins has a career 56-72 record with a 4.55 ERA over 229 appearances (208 starts for the Marlins (2014), Los Angeles Angels (2015-21), New York Yankees (2021), Dodgers (2022), Texas Rangers (2023-24) and Pirates.

  Heaney's first stint with the Dodgers was brief when he was acquired from the Marlins in a December 2014 trade then flipped to the Angels the same day.

The San Francisco Giants on Sunday placed rookie left-hander Carson Whisenhunt on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to Thursday, due to a strained back.

• In a corresponding move, San Francisco recalled rookie right-hander Kai-Wei Teng from Triple-A Sacramento.

  The Giants also expect Matt Chapman to be "fine" and not miss any games after fouling a ball off his left foot in Sunday's 13-2 home win over the Baltimore Orioles, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The third baseman left the game for a pinch runner after drawing a walk in the fifth inning and feeling soreness in his left foot.

  Whisenhunt, 24, last pitched on Wednesday, earning the win in a 12-3 home victory over the Chicago Cubs. He allowed three runs on five hits and three walks with three strikeouts in five innings.

  Manager Bob Melvin said on Sunday that Whisenhunt woke up with back tightness "a couple of days ago" and has not improved. The pitcher is fine throwing on flat ground, but his back flares up when he tries to throw off a mound, per the team's website.

  He is 2-1 since making his major league debut on July 28, with a 5.01 ERA, 12 walks and 16 strikeouts in 23 1/3 innings over five starts.

  San Francisco selected Whisenhunt in the second round of the 2022 MLB Draft out of East Carolina.

  Teng, 26, is 1-3 with an 8.78 ERA, nine walks and 12 strikeouts in 13 1/3 innings over four games (three starts) this season in San Francisco. Teng was 3-2 with two saves, a 3.63 ERA, 22 walks and 89 strikeouts in 57 innings over 26 games (four starts) with Sacramento of the Pacific Coast League.
