Orioles edge Angels for 1st 7-game win streak in five years

BALTIMORE (AP) – Dean Kremer combined with four relievers on a five-hitter, and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Los Angeles Angels 1-0 Saturday for their first seven-game winning streak in five years. Angels manager Phil Nevin and son, Tyler Nevin, an Orioles rookie infielder, met for the first time as major leaguers and exchanged lineup cards before the game. After a photo with the umpires, they went their separate ways – just like their teams. Phil Nevin returned following a 10-game suspension. Tyler went 1 for 2 with a walk. Baltimore is on its longest winning streak since seven in a row from Aug. 7-13, 2017. Los Angeles dropped to 1-7 on a nine-game trip and at 38-48 is a season-worst 10 games under .500. Kremer (3-1) allowed two hits and three walks in five innings and tied a career-high with seven strikeouts. Jorge López picked up his 16th save in 20 chances. Anthony Santander had two hits, including an RBI single, off Patrick Sandoval (3-4). Trey Mancini had a single and has hit safely in 16 consecutive starts since June 21. Sandoval allowed five hits in 6 1/3 innings and had struck out 10. PHILLIES 1, CARDINALS 0 ST. LOUIS (AP) – Kyle Gibson kept the ball in the park this time against St. Louis and Alec Bohm broke a scoreless tie with a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning as Philadelphia won its third straight and fifth in six games. Gibson, tagged for four straight home runs by St. Louis in the first inning at Citizens Bank Park in his previous start, combined with a pair of relievers on a two-hitter. He gave up two hits and walked none in seven innings. Darick Hall led off the Phillies ninth with a double against Giovanny Gallegos (2-3). Pinch-runner Mickey Moniak became the first runner of the game to reach third base on Didi Gregorius’ bunt single and Bohm followed with his go-ahead fly. José Alvarado (3-1) pitched a scoreless eighth inning. Corey Knebel got his 12th save in 16 chances. METS 5, MARLINS 4, 10 INNINGS NEW YORK (AP) – Tomás Nido hit a tying double with two outs in the 10th inning and scored the winning run on a throwing error by reliever Tanner Scott, and New York rallied to beat Miami after honoring Keith Hernandez. Pete Alonso homered and Francisco Lindor lined a two-run shot for the NL East leaders, who overcame injuries to right fielder Starling Marte and catcher James McCann in the middle innings. Both exited the game and are headed for MRIs on Sunday. After a pregame ceremony to retire No. 17 in honor of Hernandez, the Mets got their fourth walk-off win and improved to 7-0 in extra innings. Jesús Aguilar hit a tying homer in the eighth inning for Miami, and pinch-runner Billy Hamilton scored on Lindor’s throwing error at shortstop in the 10th to give the Marlins a 4-3 lead. Scott (4-3) struck out the first two batters in the bottom half before Nido hit a grounder down the third base line. The ball got under Brian Anderson’s glove and rolled into left field, allowing automatic runner Mark Canha to score from second base. Brandon Nimmo then hit a comebacker to Scott, who fumbled the ball twice before picking it up off the mound and rushing a low, wild throw past first. Nido scored easily. Colin Holderman (4-0) worked one inning for the win. BRAVES 4, NATIONALS 3 ATLANTA (AP) – Austin Riley homered off Patrick Corbin, Kyle Wright pitched seven-plus innings to win his 10th game, and Atlanta held on to beat Washington. The Braves moving a season-high 16 games over .500, improved to 28-8 since June 1, best in the NL over that span. Atlanta leads the NL with 132 homers, trailing only the New York Yankees for the major league lead. Ronald Acuña Jr. singled before Riley hit his 22nd homer, a two-run shot to left in the first.
