NEW YORK (AP) – Jose Trevino hit a game-ending single in the 11th inning and the ailing New York Yankees overcame injuries to two All-Stars to end their first three-game skid of the season, beating the Baltimore Orioles 7-6 Tuesday night. Trevino hit his second homer of the season earlier in the game and also had a tying single in the seventh. The Yankees lost DJ LeMahieu and Giancarlo Stanton to injuries. Baltimore’s Austin Hays hit an RBI groundout in the top of the 11th off Clarke Schmidt (3-2), adding to his earlier solo homer. Isiah Kiner-Falefa scored automatic runner Gleyber Torres – who homered twice – in the bottom of the inning to tie it, spoiling Bryan Baker’s bid for his first big league save. Marwin Gonzalez followed with another single, and Trevino then scorched the winning hit off Baker (1-2) into the left-field corner. Rougned Odor hit a go-ahead, three-run homer for Baltimore in the seventh inning. RED SOX 16, WHITE SOX 3 CHICAGO (AP) — Trevor Story and Christian Vazquez each hit a three-run home run and drove in four runs as Boston extended its winning streak to six games with a rout of Chicago. Story’s homer off Dylan Cease (4-2) capped a four-run first inning. Vazquez hit a three-run shot off Matt Foster to highlight a six-run sixth. The White Sox fell for the fourth time in seven games. Designated hitter J.D. Martinez had four of the Red Sox’s 19 hits. Boston’s 16 runs were its most since scoring 20 in a win over Tampa Bay on Aug. 11, 2021. Nick Pivetta (3-4) was staked to a 10-0 lead after 4 1/2 innings and pitched six innings of five-hit ball. ANGELS 5, RANGERS 3 ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) – Noah Syndergaard allowed one run over eight strong innings of four-hit ball in his longest appearance since returning from elbow surgery, and Jared Walsh homered in Los Angeles’ win over Texas. Luis Rengifo and Tyler Wade had RBI singles during a four-run fourth inning for the Angels, who have won three straight following a four-game skid that began with three losses in Texas last week. Syndergaard (4-2) rebounded impressively from a poor outing at Texas last week by retiring the first 13 Rangers he faced at Angel Stadium. He shut out the Rangers until Jonah Heim’s leadoff homer in the eighth. Dane Dunning (1-3) struck out eight while persevering into the eighth inning for the Rangers despite yielding 11 hits. DODGERS 9, NATIONALS 4 WASHINGTON (AP) — Mookie Betts homered twice and Los Angeles beat Washington. Betts smacked a three-run homer off former Dodgers prospect Josiah Gray (4-4) and hit solo shot off Victor Arano for his 21st career multi-homer game and his second of the season. Chris Taylor and Trea Turner also homered for Los Angeles, which has won nine of 10. Washington has dropped seven of it last nine. Dodgers starter Walker Buehler (6-1) allowed three runs in six innings, retiring 15 of the last 17 batters he faced. BRAVES 6, PHILLIES 5 ATLANTA (AP) – William Contreras singled home Ronald Acuña Jr. in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift Atlanta over Philadelphia. Bryce Harper put the Phillies ahead 5-4 in the top of the ninth with a two-run homer off closer Kenley Jansen (3-0). Harper finished with four RBIs. But the Braves rallied. Dansby Swanson doubled off Nick Nelson (1-1) and advanced on a wild pitch. Swanson came home when Acuña’s sacrifice fly bounced off center fielder Roman Quinn’s glove, allowing Acuña to reach second base before scoring on Contreras’ first career walk-off hit. ROCKIES 2, PIRATES 1, 10 INNINGS PITTSBURGH (AP) – Connor Joe singled home the tiebreaking run in the 10th inning and Colorado slipped past Pittsburgh.
