Gage Workman was the hero in his Tigers debut, hitting his first major league home run, a tiebreaking, pinch-hit, two-run shot in the sixth inning, and Detroit snapped a five-game skid with a 6-3 win over the host Kansas City Royals on Sunday night.

Workman, a rookie infielder with 12 previous games in the majors in 2025, was called up from Triple-A Toledo on Sunday after Kerry Carpenter was placed on the injured list with a left shoulder sprain.

Matt Vierling drove in two runs and Hao-Yu Lee and Wenceel Perez drove in one run apiece for the Tigers. Riley Greene reached base four times and scored a run. Enmanuel De Jesus (2-0) tossed 2 1/3 innings of scoreless relief. Kenley Jansen got the last three outs for his seventh save.

Maikel Garcia had three hits, a run and an RBI to lead the Royals. Vinnie Pasquantino added two hits and drove in a run and Bobby Witt Jr. had two hits and scored a run.

Orioles 2, Athletics 1

Dylan Beavers stroked a go-ahead single in the sixth and four Baltimore pitchers combined for a four-hitter to salvage the final game of their series against the visiting Athletics.

Beavers and Gunnar Henderson notched two hits apiece for the Orioles. Chris Bassitt (3-2) struck out six and allowed one run over six innings. Rico Garcia earned the save.

Athletics starter Luis Severino (2-4) allowed two runs and six hits over 5 1/3 innings. First baseman Nick Kurtz drew an eighth-inning walk to extend his on-base streak to 34 games, the longest active mark in the majors.

Marlins 5, Nationals 2

Heriberto Hernandez delivered a two-run single to cap a three-run eighth, allowing Miami to hold on for a win against visiting Washington in the rubber match of their three-game series.

Liam Hicks and Christopher Morel also had RBI singles for the Marlins, who got six strong innings from Sandy Alcantara before Josh Ekness recorded the final out for his first career save.

Luis Garcia Jr. tripled, doubled, scored a run and drove in a run for the Nationals, who saw starter Cade Cavalli allow two runs on four hits over 5 2/3 innings.

Rays 4, Red Sox 1

Visiting Tampa Bay scored three runs in the first three innings and Nick Martinez threw one-run ball for 5 2/3 en route to a win over Boston in the finale of a shortened three-game series.

Junior Caminero's solo homer in the first opened the scoring, and a two-run second extended a lead that the Rays would not relinquish. Martinez (4-1) worked around seven hits and struck out three in the victory, which was Tampa Bay's second of the weekend. The teams were rained out Saturday.

New Hampshire native Mickey Gasper (3-for-4) recorded his first three hits of his Red Sox career, including a pair of doubles, and drove in Boston's only run. Payton Tolle (1-2) gave up three runs on seven hits in five innings.

Angels 6, Blue Jays 1

Jose Soriano retired 20 consecutive batters, Jo Adell homered twice with a double and visiting Los Angeles defeated Toronto to salvage one game from the weekend series.

Soriano (6-2) allowed one run on five hits over 7 2/3 innings, Oswald Peraza added a two-run homer and Vaughn Grissom contributed a two-run double for the Angels, who exploded for six runs in the final five innings after managing one through the first 22 innings of the series.

Daulton Varsho went 2-for-4 and scored the lone run for the Blue Jays, who got four scoreless innings from their first two pitchers before Eric Lauer (1-5) allowed six runs on five hits over five innings.

Phillies 6, Rockies 0

Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper hit back-to-back homers in the first inning, part of a two-homer day for Schwarber, and host Philadelphia beat Colorado.

Schwarber finished with three hits and Brandon Marsh had four singles for the Phillies, who have won 10 of 13 games since Don Mattingly was named interim manager on April 28. Cristopher Sanchez (4-2) pitched seven strong innings to stretch his shutout streak to 21 1/3. He hasn't allowed a run since the first inning against San Francisco on April 30.

Ezequiel Tovar had two hits for the Rockies, who were held to six hits and have lost eight of their last 10 games.

Reds 5, Astros 0

Andrew Abbott worked six three-hit innings, Elly De La Cruz recorded a three-hit game, and Cincinnati claimed the rubber match of a three-game interleague series against visiting Houston.

The Reds broke open the scoring in the fourth against Kai-Wei Teng (1-3) on a two-run triple from JJ Bleday and an RBI single from Tyler Stephenson. Spencer Steer closed the scoring with his seventh homer to give Abbott (2-2) an easy victory.

The Astros never had a runner reach scoring position, with slugger Yordan Alvarez going 0-for-4 with four strikeouts. Teng allowed three runs on five hits before Cody Bolton allowed two more runs over two innings.

Twins 5, Guardians 4

Kody Clemens had three hits, including two doubles, and scored twice to spark visiting Minnesota to a win over Cleveland.

Josh Bell and Austin Martin each had two hits and one RBI while Brooks Lee was 2-for-3 with a run and an RBI in the rubber game of the three-game set. Kendry Rojas (1-0) gave up one run in 3 1/3 innings of relief for his first major league win. Yoendrys Gomez pitched a 1-2-3 ninth to earn his second save.

Brayan Rocchio was 4-for-4 with a double and two runs and Chase DeLauter went 2-for-5 with two RBIs for the Guardians, who dropped to .500 yet maintained first place in the AL Central. Gavin Williams (5-2) gave up 10 hits and five runs in six innings while fanning six.

White Sox 2, Mariners 1

Randal Grichuk hit a tying home run leading off the bottom of the eighth inning and Chicago went on to defeat visiting Seattle.

Grichuk greeted reliever Eduard Bazardo (2-2) with a home run that just cleared the left field wall. Drew Romo followed with a double and advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt by Sam Antonacci. The Mariners intentionally walked Munetaka Murakami, but Miguel Vargas thwarted that plan with a flyball. Randy Arozarena's throw to the plate sailed over Cal Raleigh, allowing Romo to slide home safely with the go-ahead run.

Mariners starter Logan Gilbert allowed one hit over six scoreless innings. Arozarena drove in Seattle's only run.

Brewers 4, Yankees 3

Brice Turang's two-out homer in the ninth inning off New York closer David Bednar lifted host Milwaukee to a walk-off win and a sweep of the three-game series.

Bednar (1-3) relieved to open the ninth and struck out the first two hitters before Turang lined the first pitch 411 feet to center for his sixth homer and first career walk-off. Abner Uribe (2-1) got the win with a scoreless ninth.

Yankees starter Carlos Rodon, activated off the injured list Sunday for his season debut following surgery last October, allowed three runs on two hits with four strikeouts. But the left-hander walked five with a hit batter and wild pitch in a 78-pitch outing. Aaron Judge staked the Yankees to a 1-0 lead in the first with his league-leading 16th homer.

Rangers 3, Cubs 0

Jacob deGrom struck out 10 over seven scoreless innings and Evan Carter belted a two-run homer, fueling Texas to its second straight shutout of Chicago in Arlington, Texas.

deGrom (3-2) scattered three hits -- two to Nico Hoerner -- and did not walk a batter to record his 99th career win. Josh Jung collected three of the Rangers' seven hits and scored two runs.

Jameson Taillon (2-2) permitted one run on four hits in 5 1/3 innings for the Cubs, who have lost two straight after their second 10-game win streak of the season. Ian Happ went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts to see his career-best 30-game on-base streak come to a halt.

Braves 7, Dodgers 2

Bryce Elder threw 5 2/3 scoreless innings to drop his ERA to a NL-best 1.81 and Mauricio Dubon laced a three-run double to help visiting Atlanta post a series-clinching win over Los Angeles.

Elder (4-1) allowed one hit while striking out eight and walking four for the Braves, who finished 6-3 on their road trip. Drake Baldwin and Matt Olson connected on solo home runs as Atlanta improved its MLB-leading record to 28-13.

Justin Wrobleski (5-1) went 8 2/3 innings for the Dodgers, yielding seven runs on seven hits while striking out seven and walking one. Max Muncy hit a two-run homer for Los Angeles, which managed just two hits and struck out 10 times.

Padres 3, Cardinals 2 (10 innings)

Manny Machado's sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 10th inning capped a San Diego comeback in a win over visiting St. Louis.

Ramon Laureano was placed on second base to start the bottom of the 10th and Jackson Merrill was intentionally walked. But Gordon Graceffo (2-1) unintentionally walked Fernando Tatis Jr. to fill the bases, setting the stage for Machado to win the game as the Padres split the four-game set.

San Diego forced extra innings when Nick Castellanos, on a 3-2 pitch, belted a two-run homer off closer Riley O'Brien in the bottom of the ninth that scored Xander Bogaerts. Jordan Walker hit a two-run shot in the fourth, slugging it an estimated 425 feet into the third deck behind the left field wall for his 11th homer of the year.

Diamondbacks 5, Mets 1

Rookie Ryan Waldschmidt had two hits and three RBIs in his second major league start, Eduardo Rodriguez did not allow a hit until the sixth inning and Arizona beat New York in the rubber game of a three-game series in Phoenix.

Rodriguez (4-0) gave up one run and four hits in 8 1/3 innings, leaving two outs short of his first career complete game after Mark Vientos' one-out single in the ninth. Ketel Marte capped off the scoring with a two-run triple to conclude the Diamondbacks' three-run sixth.

Luis Torrens had two of the Mets' four hits and their lone RBI on a double after Carson Benge broke up the no-hitter with a one-out single in the sixth. Bulk reliever David Peterson gave up four hits and three runs (none earned) in five innings.

Giants 7, Pirates 6 (12 innings)

Jesus Rodriguez blooped a one-out, bases-loaded single in the bottom of the 12th inning, allowing San Francisco, after rallying three times from two-run deficits, to walk off visiting Pittsburgh.

After Ryan Borucki (1-1) stranded the potential go-ahead run at third base in both the 11th and 12th, the Giants finally ended the marathon affair after Pirates right fielder Ryan O'Hearn couldn't track down Matt Chapman's flyball for a double, allowing automatic runner Heliot Ramos to take third base with one out. After Drew Gilbert was walked intentionally to load the bases, rookie Rodriguez singled off Justin Lawrence.

Willy Adames had three hits, while Rafael Devers, Jung Hoo Lee, Ramos and Chapman chipped in two apiece for San Francisco, which out-hit the visitors 13-7. Spencer Horwitz totaled three RBIs on his two doubles for Pittsburgh, which completed a 3-3 Western swing.
