Third baseman Luis Arraez threw wildly to first on a potential game-ending ground out with two outs in the 10th inning Wednesday afternoon, allowing the tying and winning runs to score as the Oakland Athletics rallied for their 11th straight win, 13-12 over the visiting Minnesota Twins. After Byron Buxton launched a two-run home run off Oakland closer Lou Trivino with one out in the top of the 10th, Twins closer Alex Colome (1-2) got two outs in the last of the inning before walking Seth Brown and Elvis Andrus to load the bases. Twins second baseman Travis Blankenhorn had a chance to end the game on a grounder by Mark Canha but booted it, allowing Oakland to close within 12-11 and bringing Ramon Laureano to the plate. Laureano"s grounder resulted in Arraez"s game-ending miscue. Deolis Guerra (1-0), who recorded the final out of the top of the 10th, was credited with the win as the A"s swept the three-game series. Nelson Cruz smacked two home runs and Josh Donaldson added one among his four hits for the Twins, who lost for the ninth time in 10 games. Cubs 16, Mets 4 Javier Baez smacked a grand slam and host Chicago capitalized on four New York errors to earn its third win in four games. David Bote had two hits and four RBIs and Matt Duffy had three hits and three RBIs for the Cubs, whose season-high offensive output started with a seven-run fourth inning. Alec Mills (1-0) pitched three innings of one-hit, shutout relief to earn the victory. Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso hit home runs for the Mets, who committed three errors in the Cubs" big inning and have made six overall while losing the first two games of the series. New York"s David Peterson (1-2) allowed six runs (three earned) on four hits in 3 1/3 innings with two walks and three strikeouts. Brewers 4, Padres 2 Omar Narvaez hit a two-run, go-ahead home run in the sixth inning and Jace Peterson hit a solo homer two outs later as visiting Milwaukee rallied to defeat slumping San Diego and complete a three-game sweep. The Padres also lost their starting pitcher, right-hander Dinelson Lamet, to forearm tightness after he pitched only two innings in his 2021 debut. San Diego led 2-1 going into the sixth when the Brewers" Travis Shaw drew a leadoff walk from Keone Kela, the fifth of eight Padres pitchers. Narvaez then pulled a homer into the seats in right. Peterson, who played 58 games for the Padres in 2014, connected with his second homer in as many games. Braves 4, Yankees 1 Ian Anderson pitched 6 2/3 solid innings, Austin Riley homered and reached base four times, and visiting Atlanta beat struggling New York. In his 10th career start and second against the Yankees, Anderson (1-0) allowed four hits and nearly equaled the longest outing of his brief career. The right-hander struck out four and worked around four walks in a 97-pitch outing. New York"s Corey Kluber (0-2) allowed two runs and two hits in a season-high 4 2/3 innings. He struck out two and walked four -- one shy of his career high. Nationals 1, Cardinals 0 Max Scherzer threw six strong innings while Alex Avila had two doubles and drove in the game"s only run as Washington defeated visiting St. Louis to take the rubber game of the three-game series. Scherzer (1-1) gave up four hits and walked a batter while striking out nine. Scherzer retired 13 of the last 14 hitters he faced and has allowed one run in his past 22 innings. With 2,817 career strikeouts, Scherzer passed Mike Mussina for 21st place in major league history. Cardinals starter Carlos Martinez (0-4), looking for his first win as a starter since July 2018, turned in his best start of the season. He allowed a run on four hits over six innings. St. Louis has lost each of its past four series. Marlins 3, Orioles 0 Left-hander Trevor Rogers pitched seven scoreless innings, leading host Miami past Baltimore. Rogers (2-1) allowed four hits and one walk, striking out eight and lowering his ERA to 1.64. Miami"s first-round pick in 2017, Rogers threw 60 of his 82 pitches for strikes. Jesus Aguilar had a two-run double, a walk and a run to lead Miami"s offense. Marlins rookie second baseman Jazz Chisholm -- in his first time leading off in the major leagues -- went 2-for-4 with a stolen base. The Marlins, who snapped a two-game losing streak, are 7-3 in their past 10 games. Phillies 6, Giants 5 Bryce Harper scored from second base on Andrew Knapp"s walk-off single in the ninth inning as Philadelphia beat visiting San Francisco to salvage the finale of the three-game series.
