BOSTON (AP) - Russell Martin broke a tie with a three-run triple in a nine-run seventh inning as the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Boston Red Sox 13-10 by overcoming an 8-1 deficit Friday night.
The Blue Jays won their ninth straight game and scored at least six runs for the eighth time in that stretch.
The Red Sox suffered their fourth consecutive loss, one of the most disheartening in a season in which they are a season-worst eight games under .500 (27-35) and in last place in the AL East. They had a chance to tie it in the ninth when they loaded the bases after Xander Bogaerts singled in a run. But with two outs, Mike Napoli took a called third strike.
Brett Cecil gave up an RBI double in the ninth to Rusney Castillo but got his third save.
Steve Delabar (2-0) pitched a perfect sixth. Junichi Tazawa (0-2) took the loss.
CARDINALS 4, ROYALS 0
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Jaime Garcia pitched eight innings of four-hit ball and helped himself with an RBI single for St. Louis, which ended Kansas City's four-game winning streak with a victory in the opener of a high-profile weekend interleague series.
Jon Jay snapped a 2-for-24 slump this month with a two-out RBI triple in the second off Yordano Ventura (3-6), and Garcia followed with his 12th career RBI on an opposite-field single to left.
The Cardinals are 40-21 overall and 23-7 at home, both major league bests. They got a huge outing from Garcia (2-3), so far a success story off thoracic outlet surgery.
Ventura lasted just three innings for the second straight start, removed as a precaution due to weakness in his pitching hand. In those two starts, he's allowed six earned runs.
METS 5, BRAVES 3
NEW YORK (AP) - Bartolo Colon moved into a tie for the major league lead with his ninth win, Wilmer Flores and John Mayberry Jr. homered, and New York held on to beat Atlanta.
The 42-year-old Colon (9-4) gave up two runs and six hits in six effective innings as he matched Seattle's Felix Hernandez, who was roughed up at Houston, and Pittsburgh's Gerrit Cole for most victories in baseball.
Jeurys Familia, whose availability for the game was uncertain because he was awaiting the birth of his child, loaded the bases with one out in the ninth before getting Nick Markakis to ground into a double play for his 18th save.
Michael Cuddyer followed up his game-winning hit Thursday against San Francisco with an RBI double in the seventh as New York beat Atlanta for a fifth straight time after losing the first two games between the teams this year.
ASTROS 10, MARINERS 0
HOUSTON (AP) - Luis Valbuena, Jason Castro, Carlos Correa and Chris Carter all homered as Houston Astros chased Felix Hernandez in the first inning to snap a season-high, seven-game skid in grand fashion with a win over Seattle.
Hernandez (9-3), who had allowed just seven runs on the road all season, was tagged for five hits and eight runs with two walks. He got only one out, tying the shortest start of his career.
Brett Oberholtzer (1-1) allowed three hits in eight sharp innings and Joe Thatcher completed the four-hitter. It was Oberholtzer's fourth start of the season after missing much of the year because of two stints on the disabled list.
ORIOLES 11, YANKEES 3
BALTIMORE (AP) - Chris Davis homered and drove in four runs, and Baltimore beat Michael Pineda and New York for its season-high fifth straight win.
Caleb Joseph hit a solo shot and Jimmy Paredes had three singles and two RBIs for the Orioles, who reached .500 (30-30) for the first time since May 5. Baltimore has won seven of eight following a five-game skid.
Davis delivered an RBI single in the first inning and a three-run drive in the third, both against Pineda (7-3). The slugger came into the game 1 for 11 with eight strikeouts in his career against the right-hander.
Ubaldo Jimenez (4-3) gave up three runs in five innings to earn his first win since May 11. Although the right-hander struggled from the outset, he kept the damage to a minimum and received plenty of offensive support.
REDS 5, CUBS 4, 10 INNINGS
CHICAGO (AP) - Eugenio Suarez drove in Todd Frazier with an unearned tie-breaking run in the 10th inning, and banged-up Cincinnati rebounded for a victory over Chicago, its fifth win in six games.
Suarez, playing in his second game after being called up for the injured shortstop Zack Cozart, singled through a drawn-in infield off Hector Rondon (3-1) for his first RBI with the Reds.
Cincinnati's J.J. Hoover (5-0) pitched a scoreless eighth and ninth for the win. Aroldis Chapman struck out two in scoreless 10th for his 13th save in 14 chances
Frazier hit his team-leading 18th homer and drove in a run with a double. Ivan Dejesus Jr. and Brayan Pena also had RBIs in Cincinnati's three-run first inning.
RANGERS 6, TWINS 2
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Elvis Andrus had a career-high four RBIs and Texas got the tiebreaking runs on a two-out error by Minnesota center fielder Aaron Hicks as the Rangers beat the Twins.
The Rangers had the bases loaded in the eighth with the game tied when Mitch Moreland hit a fly ball to straightaway center. Hicks was drifting back and reached up, but the ball ricocheted off his glove and allowed two runs to score in Minnesota's fourth consecutive loss.
After the Twins went to their fourth pitcher of the inning, Andrus had a two-run hit to make it 6-2 before he was out trying to make it a double.
Andrus' two-run homer in the seventh ended a 20-inning scoreless streak for the Rangers and put them up 2-1.
RAYS 7, WHITE SOX 5
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - Joey Butler had three of Tampa Bay's 14 hits and Matt Andriese earned his first major league win in the Rays' victory over Chicago.
Andriese (1-1) gave up two runs - both unearned - in a career-high 5 2-3 innings. He struck out five in the 26th game started by a Rays rookie this season.
Butler, another rookie who has hit safely in 12 of 13 games, drove in two runs with singles.
Hits by Mikie Mahtook, Brandon Guyer and Butler gave the Rays a 2-0 lead in the first inning against starter John Danks and they led all the way, ending Chicago's three-game win streak.
Jake McGee pitched the ninth for his second save.
Steven Souza Jr., Jake Elmore, Nick Franklin and Kevin Kiermaier had two hits each for the Rays.
Jose Abreu hit his 12th home run for the White Sox, connecting in a third straight game for the first time in his career.
BREWERS 8, NATIONALS 4
MILWAUKEE (AP) - Aramis Ramirez hit three doubles and drove in five runs, Mike Fiers pitched seven effective innings, and Milwaukee beat Washington.
Ramirez put Milwaukee ahead 2-0 in the first with his ninth double of the season. His 10th drove in a run in the third. Then he highlighted the Brewers' four-run fourth inning with his 11th, a two-run line drive off reliever Taylor Hill. Jonathan Lucroy knocked in the other two runs that inning with a single.
Fiers (3-6) allowed three runs and five hits. He struck out eight and walked three in his second career victory in two starts against the Nationals. He pitched 6 1/3 scoreless innings in a 6-0 win against Washington July 27, 2012.
Jordan Zimmermann (5-4) allowed six runs and nine hits in 3 1/3 innings, the shortest start since going 2 1/3 on April 13.
TIGERS 4, INDIANS 0
DETROIT (AP) - David Price pitched a seven-hitter for his third career shutout, Miguel Cabrera hit a three-run homer and an RBI double in the Detroit win over Cleveland.
Price (6-2) didn't walk a batter and struck out eight while throwing only 93 pitches.
Danny Salazar (6-2) matched Price until the sixth when he gave up Cabrera's homer, which went over the center-field fence and traveled about 450 feet. It was Cabrera's 13th home run and also drove in Anthony Gose and Rajai Davis, who led off with singles. Cabrera homered one out later.
Salazar allowed the three runs and seven hits while walking one and striking out six. He was replaced by C.C. Lee to begin the eighth.
MARLINS 5, ROCKIES 1
MIAMI (AP) - Jose Urena pitched into the seventh inning for his first major league victory, and Miami supported him with some slugging to beat Colorado.
The Marlins hit two home runs, neither by major league leader Giancarlo Stanton, and nearly had a third.
J.T. Realmuto hit a three-run homer, and Martin Prado had a solo shot. Marcell Ozuna's two-run drive was wiped out by a replay review that determined the ball hooked foul, so he settled five pitches later for a two-out RBI single.
Stanton had a single and a double and scored a run.
The Rockies lost their third game in a row and have totaled one run in the first two games of the series.
Kyle Kendrick (2-8) allowed two runs in 6 2-3 innings. He's tied for the major league lead in losses.
