MLB Standings & Scores

The Los Angeles Dodgers remain on a historic pace, picking up win number 80 this season thanks to Cody Bellinger and his home run hitting antics. Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays again to extend the longest active winning streak to 8.

Baltimore Orioles 1  Los Angeles Angels 5: The slippery chase after the wild card ticket is so far proving difficult. The O’s were held to just 4 hits, while C.J. Cron hit a home run on consecutive days, getting help from Andrelton Simmons, doing well in this series vs Baltimore.

Red Sox beat Rays

Boston Red Sox 8  Tampa Bay Rays 2: The Red Sox continue to have fun down in Florida, with Rick Porcello picking up the win in two solid innings, but mostly the offense pulling its weight, including 2 RBIs for Sandy Leon.

Chicago Cubs 1  San Francisco Giants 3: Madison Bumgarner looked terrific in a 7-inning outing, including 7 strikeouts while giving up just one run, a homer to Albert Almora Jr. ;Hunter Pence hit a home run of his own, a two-run shot the Giants leaned on to win.

Colorado Rockies 3  Cleveland Indians 2: Despite their wasteful day (12 hits, only 3 runs), the Rockies prevailed, with Jonathan Lucroy sending the game to extra inning in the 9th inning and Justin Blackmon hitting a game-winning home run in the 12th.

Houston Astros 1  Chicago White Sox 7: Another surprising loss for the Astros in South Side. Miguel Gonzalez threw for 8 innings, allowing only 5 hits and one run. Tim Anderson hit a home run and finished with 3 RBIs overall.

Kansas City Royals 5  St. Louis Cardinals 8: The Cardinals pick up their 5th win in a row, with Yadier Molina and his 6th inning grand slam home run lifting them from one run behind to victory.

Los Angeles Dodgers 3  Arizona Diamondbacks 2: The Dodgers get back to their winning ways (80 this season), as Alex Wood improved to 14-1 based on 6 innings of work and the offense of Cody Bellinger, hitting home run number 33 this season.

Miami Marlins 1  Washington Nationals 10: Ryan Zimmerman hit his 25th and 26th home runs of the season in a nasty demolition of the Marlins. Gio Gonzalez was hot, giving up one run in 7 innings while striking out 6.
