Around the Horn Thursday’s other MLB games

AMERICAN LEAGUE

Orioles 7, Red Sox 5

BALTIMORE

Wade Miley allowed one run in seven innings, Mark Trumbo hit the first of Baltimore’s four home runs off Eduardo Rodriguez and the Orioles beat the Boston Red Sox. Chris Davis and Adam Jones went deep for a second straight night and Jonathan Schoop capped the outburst with a three-run drive in the sixth that made it 7-1. After taking two of three from the AL East-leading New York Yankees, the Orioles opened a four-game series against another division rival with a feel-good victory.

Yankees 12, Blue Jays 2

TORONTO

CC Sabathia won his fourth consecutive start, Aaron Hicks had a career-high six RBIs and Gary Sanchez homered twice to lead the New York Yankees over the Toronto Blue Jays. Sabathia (6-2) allowed one run and five hits in 61/3 innings, struck out seven and walked none. He has won four straight starts for the first time since April and May 2012. He had been 0-5 in seven starts against Toronto since beating the Blue Jays on April 6, 2014.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Cardinals 2, Dodgers 0

ST. LOUIS

Adam Wainwright hit a two-run homer off Brandon McCarthy and pitched six innings of four-hit ball, leading the St. Louis Cardinals over the Los Angeles Dodgers for a four-game split. Wainwright (6-3) struck out six and walked two, pitching out of two-on, one-out jams in the fourth and fifth, and extending his scoreless streak to 161/3 innings. Matt Bowman, Trevor Rosenthal and Seung Hwan Oh pitched an inning each to complete a five-hitter. Oh threw a one-hit ninth for his 13th save in 15 chances.

Brewers 2, Mets 1

NEW YORK

Chase Anderson pitched seven shutout innings and the Brewers benefited temporarily, when a Milwaukee bat boy bumped into Mets infielder Wilmer Flores on a foul popup in a victory over New York. NL Central-leading Milwaukee won the last two at Citi Field to salvage a four-game split. Anderson (4-1) gave up three hits, walked one and struck out seven. In his previous start, he took a no-hit bid into the eighth inning to beat Arizona. Corey Knebel pitched the ninth for his fourth save. Flores homered in the eighth on reliever Jacob Barnes’ first pitch.

Diamondbacks 3, Marlins 2

MIAMI

Zack Greinke allowed one earned run in seven innings to earn his seventh victory, and the Arizona Diamondbacks rallied to snap the Miami Marlins’ four-game winning streak. Nick Ahmed had three of Arizona’s six hits, including a two-run single in the eighth to put the Diamondbacks ahead. They won for the 13th time in the past 17 games. Greinke (7-3), who moved into a tie for the NL lead in wins, struck out eight and allowed four hits.

INTERLEAGUE

Rockies 6, Mariners 3

SEATTLE

Mark Reynolds and Nolan Arenado homered to back Kyle Freeland, and the Colorado Rockies stopped a three-game losing streak with a win over the Seattle Mariners. Colorado closed out four straight games against the Mariners in interleague play by jumping on Yovani Gallardo (2-6) with four runs in the second inning. Reynolds provided the big blow with a two-run homer to deep left-center field, his 14th this season.
