Overview
- The Dodgers beat the Nationals 13-7 as Shohei Ohtani combined a hitless inning on the mound with a three-run triple and two-run homer, and Max Muncy delivered a grand slam plus a three-run shot.
- Heliot Ramos drove in four runs for the Giants in their 9-5 comeback over the Red Sox, with San Francisco also capitalizing on two costly Boston errors and home runs by Casey Schmitt, Mike Yastrzemski and Willy Adames.
- Jesús Luzardo tossed 6⅔ scoreless innings for the Phillies in their 7-1 win over the Mets, while Kyle Schwarber and Edmundo Sosa homered to help Philadelphia regain sole possession of first in the NL East.
- San Francisco’s victory pushed the Giants to a majors-best 15-2 record in home day games, and the team’s mix of power and small-ball play underscored its midseason resurgence.
- New York’s record-tying seven solo homers in Saturday’s 11-4 win over Philadelphia proved fleeting as the Mets dropped the series finale, ceding a one-game NL East lead back to the Phillies.
