Earning Full WOBs:

Sandy Alcantara threw his second complete game shutout of the season, striking out 8 as the Marlins blanked Kansas City, 9-0.

Yordan Álvarez collected 4 hits, including 3 doubles, driving in 6, in the Astros 21-1 bombing of the Mariners.

Gerrit Cole allowed a solo homer and no other hits nor runs over 8 innings where he struck out 15 Mariners in a lop sided 21-1 Houston final.

Eugenio Suárez got 3 hits, including 2 homers. The second one tied the game and set up the Reds 4-3 walk off win over Arizona.

Earning 1/2 WOBs:

Mookie Betts went 2 for 4 with a homer but the Yankees doubled up the Red Sox, 10-5.

Ken Giles threw a perfect inning, which is more than any other AL pitcher could say yesterday, in Toronto’s 8-3 loss to the Rays.

Mike Leake did not walk a batter while pitching into the 7th, finishing with 2 runs over 6 1/3 innings, striking out 3 Reds. The Diamondbacks bullpen would blow his lead and the game, 4-3.

Wilson Ramos reached base 3 times, homering and steaing a base, driving in 3 but the Mets lost an excruiciating 10-7 game to Philadelphia.
