David Phelps gave the Marlins a much needed with with 7 shutout innings, allowing just 3 hits and 2 walks and got the 9-1 decision in Philadelphia.
Jacoby Ellsbury hustled to force a double, reached base two other times, stole a base and scored both Yankee runs to win a tight 2-1 victory in Detroit.
Masahiro Tanaka gave the Yankees another good outing, pitching into the 7th, keeping the mighty Tiger bats to only 3 hits and 1 run over 6 1/3 innings. He did not get the decision but the Yankees prevailed, 2-1.

Howie Kendrick made a spectacular diving catch with 2 outs in the 8th, saving 2 runs and preserving the Dodgers lead. The Giants would tie the game in the 9th and win, 3-2, in the 10th.
Max Scherzer pitched 7 strong innings, allowing just 2 runs and walking none. He was a hard luck loser as the Nationals lost to St. Louis, 4-1.
Manny Machado hit a pair of homers and drove in 4 runs but his Orioles fell a run short, 7-6 in Toronto.
Chris Sale was solid for the White Sox, going 7 innings and allowing just 2 runs, working out of trouble. But the offense sputtered and Kansas City won a tense 3-2 game in 13 innings.
