Charlie Morton did his best to halt the Brewers winning streak. He pitched 7 innings, letting up just 2 earned runs and 6 hits. But his defense conspired against him and the Brewers beat the Pirates, 4-1.

Corey Kluber pitched into the 8th innings, letting up just 2 runs and walked none. The bullpen would lose the game as the White Sox beat the Indians 4-3.

Gerardo Parra got three hits and scored twice in the Diamondbacks 8-6 loss to the Dodgers.

Ben Zobrist homered twice, driving in 4 runs. It wasn’t enough for the Rays who lost 12-4 to Cincinnati.
