Overview

• New York opened a 13-3 rout of the Rays with back-to-back-to-back first-inning homers by Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton, then tied a franchise record with nine total home runs.
• The Yankees became one of three teams to record three instances of three straight homers in a season, and Judge’s blast was his 40th of the year.
• Detroit edged Houston 1-0 in 10 innings on a bases-loaded walk by Gleyber Torres after Tarik Skubal threw seven scoreless frames with 10 strikeouts to reach 200 on the season.
• The Astros were shut out for the third straight game and have gone 28 innings without scoring, their longest such funk since 1985, despite six strong innings from Hunter Brown.
• St. Louis snapped a five-game slide by beating Miami 8-3, capitalizing on two errors, five walks and four wild pitches as Eury Pérez became the first Marlins pitcher with four wild pitches in a game.
