July 26, 2016

St. Louis 3, NY Mets 2
The St. Louis Cardinals had an adventurous time getting to New York. Now they must to wait to start their 10-game road trip.
Colorado 6, Baltimore 3
Colorado's Carlos Gonzalez and Trevor Story had two RBIs apiece to lead the surging Rockies past the first-place Baltimore Orioles 6-3 on Tuesday night.
Seattle 7, Pittsburgh 4
Seattle ace Felix Hernandez felt it from the start. His pitches were up. The Pittsburgh hitters were taking advantage.
Toronto 7, San Diego 6
The San Diego Padres extended their home run streak to 24 consecutive games Tuesday night and had a right to think that it would be enough to earn a win against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Detroit 9, Boston 8
Tyler Collins walked with the bases loaded in the seventh inning to force in the winning run, and the Detroit Tigers edged the Boston Red Sox 9-8 Tuesday night at Fenway Park.
Detroit 9, Boston 8
There's no such thing as a comfortable save situation, but Francisco Rodriguez's presence on the mound can certainly take the pressure off.
Chi. White Sox 3, Chi. Cubs 0
The Chicago White Sox had a good idea of what they were getting when they added James Shields to their rotation in June.
Cleveland 7, Washington 6
It was wild. It was crazy. But it was a much-needed win for the Cleveland Indians.
Miami 5, Philadelphia 0
Giancarlo Stanton said his Miami Marlins, scoreless for 24 consecutive innings, "needed to get some energy going."
NY Mets 3, St. Louis 1
For the New York Mets, many times when Bartolo Colon pitches, there's a reassuring feeling that everything is going to work out.
Oakland 6, Texas 3
One start does not turn a season around for Sonny Gray.
NY Yankees 6, Houston 3
What Yankees left-hander CC Sabathia longed for were the results to match what he believed were performances superior to what his won-loss record had indicated over the previous five weeks, and on Tuesday night, he finally found a small measure of validation.
Atlanta 2, Minnesota 0
Lucas Harrell doesn't have the biggest name among pitchers who could be traded before Monday's non-waiver deadline, but the Atlanta Braves right-hander showed again Tuesday why he could be a sought-after piece.
Milwaukee 9, Arizona 4
In more than a decade as the home of the Milwaukee Brewers, Miller Park has been known as a hitter's paradise, a launching pad for tape-measure home runs, especially on warm, humid summer nights.
LA Angels 13, Kansas City 0
It was a gigantic night for the Los Angeles Angels offense and for left-hander Tyler Skaggs.
LA Dodgers 3, Tampa Bay 2
Chris Archer had a solid performance Tuesday, but Bud Norris delivered a better one.
San Francisco 9, Cincinnati 7
Matt Cain contributed to a win in more ways than one Tuesday.
