Earning 1/2 WOBs:

Julio Teheran pitched into the 7th, finishing with 6 2/3 innings, 1 run and struck out 5 Blue Jays. He would not factor into the decision as Atlanta fell, 6-2.

Trevor Bauer was brilliant, striking out 12 Reds in 8 innings of shutout ball. The Indians bullpen had a spectacular meltdown in the 9th and the Reds came back to win, 7-4.

Amed Rosario tripled twice and singled, scoring twice and driving in 1 in the Mets 7-3 defeat by the Phillies.

Marcus Semien went 3 for 4 with a pair of RBI in the A’s bizarre 6-5 extra innings loss in Houston.
