MLB roundup: Nationals extend A’s losing streak to 10 in 23-4 beatdown
Jul 17, 2026; West Sacramento, California, USA; Washington Nationals first baseman Andres Chaparro (87) acknowledges the dugout after hitting a two RBI single and advancing to second base on an error during the sixth inning against the Athletics at Sutter Health Park. Mandatory Credit: Scott Marshall-Imagn Images Andres Chaparro hit two homers and had eight RBIs — more than doubling his season total from 7 to 15 — as the Washington Nationals torched the lowly Athletics 23-4 on Friday night at West Sacramento, Calif.
The Nationals opened the scoring with a three-run third before busting the game wide open with four-plus runs in the fifth through seventh innings. That proved to be more than enough for Cade Cavalli (6-4), who gave up two runs and four hits over six innings.
Chaparro went 4-for-5 with a walk and four runs and Daylen Lile and Harry Ford each homered for the Nationals, who set a season high for runs, matching the second-most in franchise history. Curtis Mead was 4-for-6 with four runs, three RBIs and three doubles, and Nasim Nunez had three hits and three runs.
Tyler Soderstrom hit a two-run homer and Shea Langeliers belted a solo shot for the Athletics, who lost their 10th consecutive game. Gage Jump (3-5) of the A’s allowed four runs (three earned) and four hits in 3 2/3 innings before their bullpen was hit hard by Washington’s lineup.
Royals 7, Padres 6 (10 innings)
Carter Jensen’s two-run, walk-off single capped a four-run 10th inning which helped Kansas City rally for a victory over visiting San Diego.
The Padres scored three times in the top of the 10th, beginning with Miguel Andujar’s third double of the night down the right field line against Lucas Erceg (4-3) to score the automatic runner. Fernando Tatis Jr. followed with an RBI single, and Xander Bogaerts made it 6-3 with a sacrifice fly.
However, Michael Massey’s third hit of the game drove in the first run of the bottom of the 10th off Kyle Hart (0-2). Isaac Collins’ RBI groundout left runners on second and third for the Royals, then Jensen delivered his third hit through a drawn-in left side of the infield to score two and snap Kansas City’s five-game skid.
Red Sox 10, Rays 0 (Game 1)
Jake Bennett threw six scoreless innings before a six-run sixth allowed Boston to score a lopsided win over visiting Tampa Bay in the first game of a day-night doubleheader.
Masataka Yoshida and Carlos Narvaez each homered as part of three-hit games and Caleb Durbin went 3-for-4 for the Red Sox, who banged out 15 hits.
Bennett (5-3) allowed just one hit and one walk while striking out three. Alec Gamboa went the rest of the way, allowing just two hits over the final three innings for his first career save. Rays starter Griffin Jax (5-7) struck out six but yielded seven runs in five-plus innings.
Red Sox 5, Rays 3 (Game 2)
Wilyer Abreu hit home runs in his first two at-bats as Boston completed a doubleheader sweep with another win over Tampa Bay, extending its winning streak to 11 games.
Willson Contreras also homered for the Red Sox, who won a bullpen game with six relievers combining to throw 6 2/3 scoreless innings with four hits behind Eduardo Rivera, who allowed three runs over the first 2 1/3 innings. Greg Weissert (2-2) got the win, and Aroldis Chapman pitched a clean ninth for his 20th save.
Junior Caminero, who hit a solo home run in the third, and Jonny DeLuca both had multi-hit games for the Rays. Mason Englert (0-3) was tagged for five runs and eight hits over five innings before the Tampa Bay bullpen combined for three no-hit innings of relief work.
Dodgers 2, Yankees 1
Max Muncy hit a go-ahead two-run homer with nobody out in the seventh inning against Gerrit Cole and Los Angeles earned a victory over New York in the first meeting at Yankee Stadium between the teams since Game 5 of the 2024 World Series.
The Dodgers snapped a three-game losing streak in their first trip to the Bronx since scoring five unearned runs off Cole in the fifth inning of Game 5 to clinch the first of their back-to-back titles. Roki Sasaki allowed an unearned run on five hits in 5 2/3 innings for the Dodgers.
Cole (3-5) entered the seventh at 90 pitches and started the inning by walking Mookie Betts. Manager Aaron Boone visited the mound and kept Cole in the game. Muncy fouled off three pitches before ending the at-bat by hammering Cole’s 2-2 slider about halfway up the second deck in right field. Cole had held him hitless in five previous encounters. Cole allowed two runs on four hits in six-plus innings.
Braves 15, Rangers 1
Drake Baldwin, Matt Olson and Austin Riley all homered and Chris Sale pitched seven scoreless innings to lead Atlanta to a win over visiting Texas in the opener of a three-game set.
Sale (10-6) became the 10th National League pitcher to reach double-digit wins. He allowed only two hits, never allowed a runner to reach third base and struck out six. Sale also recorded his 2,700th punchout. Ozzie Albies, Michael Harris II, Mauricio Dubon and Jim Jarvis also pitched in with two hits apiece.
Rangers starter Cal Quantrill (3-2) was roughed up for six runs on 11 hits, both season highs, in four innings. His ERA spiked from 3.11 to 3.93 due to the rough outing. Right-hander Emiliano Teodo followed with 1 2/3 innings and allowed two runs in his major league debut.
White Sox 12, Blue Jays 4
Braden Montgomery had four RBIs and Colson Montgomery added three RBIs as visiting Chicago throttled Toronto.
Sam Antonacci hit a two-run home run for the White Sox, who saw starter Anthony Kay allow two runs and two hits over four innings. Reliever Tyler Schweitzer (1-0) allowed one infield hit and a walk over the final three innings to earn his first major league win.
Luis Urias, George Springer and Brandon Valenzuela hit solo shots for the Blue Jays, who have lost all four games against the White Sox this season. Spencer Miles (4-2) was tagged for six runs on six hits in four-plus innings.
Orioles 3, Astros 2
Taylor Ward hit a two-run home run in the eighth inning to lift Baltimore to a road victory against Houston.
The Orioles extended their season-best winning streak to five games. They had barely mustered any offense until Adley Rutschman led off the eighth with a double and Ward followed with his seventh homer of the season. Baltimore collected five hits and four walks while striking out 13 times.
Astros starter Peter Lambert struck out 10 batters in six innings but his efforts weren’t enough. Lambert was charged with one run on three hits. Yordan Alvarez drove in a run and Jeremy Pena scored both runs for the Astros. Giants 7, Mariners 0
Willy Adames hit a grand slam and Landen Roupp pitched seven innings of two-hit ball as San Francisco returned from the All-Star break with a shutout victory against host Seattle.
Bryce Eldridge added a two-run shot for the Giants, who won their third game in a row to tie their season-long winning streak. Roupp (7-8) allowed only a two-out single to Josh Naylor in the fourth inning and a leadoff single to Luke Raley in the fifth.
Mariners starter Bryce Miller (4-4) gave up three runs (two earned) on seven hits over 5 2/3 innings. Twins 5, Cubs 2
Ryan Jeffers belted a go-ahead three-run home run in the third inning and Minnesota held on for a win over host Chicago.
Trevor Larnach and Ryan Kreidler also drove in one run apiece for the Twins, who have won three games in a row after entering the All-Star break with back-to-back victories. Twins right-hander Bailey Ober (7-3) allowed two runs on five hits in 5 1/3 innings.
Seiya Suzuki went 1-for-3 with a double and a run for Chicago. Michael Busch notched the lone RBI for the Cubs. Colin Rea (7-6) gave up four runs (three earned) on five hits in six innings. Brewers 2, Marlins 1 (10 innings)
Garrett Mitchell grounded an RBI single up the middle with two outs to score Jackson Chourio from second base, giving Milwaukee an extra-inning win over visiting Miami in the opener of the three-game series.
Joey Ortiz homered and singled for the Brewers, who had lost their last three games before the All-Star break. Logan Henderson was trying to win his fourth straight start, but did not earn a decision after allowing one run and three hits over five innings. Craig Yoho (1-0) recorded his first major league win with a scoreless 10th.
Griffin Conine homered and Otto Lopez had two hits for the Marlins, who had also lost their last three games before the break. Sandy Alcantara limited the Brewers to one run and three hits in six innings, and Lake Bachar (1-1) took the loss. Reds 7, Rockies 2
Spencer Steer hit a two-run homer and an inside-the-park solo home run, Brady Singer tossed seven strong innings and Cincinnati opened a three-game series against Colorado with a win in Denver.
Elly De La Cruz went 4-for-5 with a solo homer and Eugenio Suarez homered in his third straight game for the Reds, who have won 17 of their last 20 against the Rockies, including seven straight at Coors Field. Singer (4-9) allowed two runs on four hits.
Willi Castro homered among his two hits for the National League-worst Rockies (39-60), who have lost five of their last six. Gabriel Hughes (1-0) yielded two runs on five hits over 5 1/3 innings before his replacement, Jimmy Herget, allowed homers to the first two batters he faced in Cincinnati’s three-run sixth. Cardinals 5, Diamondbacks 4
Ivan Herrera delivered the game-winning RBI on a ninth-inning sacrifice fly to lift St. Louis to a win against Arizona in Phoenix.
After their 2-0 first-inning lead was erased, JJ Wetherholt put the Cardinals ahead 3-2 in the fifth inning on a solo homer. Masyn Winn added an eighth-inning sac fly to make it 4-2 St. Louis. Cardinals starting pitcher Michael McGreevy allowed two runs on six hits in 6 1/3 innings.
The Diamondbacks tied the game on a two-run homer off the right field foul pole from Corbin Carroll in the bottom of the eighth. Arizona starter Merrill Kelly gave up three runs (one earned) on four hits in five innings for the Diamondbacks, who had their four-game winning streak snapped. Tim Tawa also homered for Arizona. Tigers 2, Angels 1
Hao-Yu Lee lined a two-run double into the gap in right-center with two outs in the top of the ninth as Detroit rallied for a victory over Los Angeles in Anaheim, Calif.
Matt Vierling had two hits and a stolen base and Riley Greene and Ben Malgeri each doubled for the Tigers, who snapped a two-game losing streak and won for the 10th time in the last 13 games.
Zach Neto had two hits and scored a run and Mike Trout had a double for the Angels, who lost their third straight game and fell to 2-11 in the last 13 games. Reid Detmers was denied his first win since June 16 at Arizona after allowing four hits over six shutout innings. –Field Level Media
Cincinnati Reds central fielder Spencer Steer (7) catches a fly ball in the ninth inning between the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati on Sunday, July 12, 2026. Spencer Steer is not leading the Cincinnati Reds in many statistical categories this season, but his value can’t be underestimated.
Steer has proved to be versatile for the Reds, who will continue their three-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Saturday afternoon in Denver.
Steer sparked the Reds to a 7-2 win on Friday with a two-run homer and an inside-the-park solo home run.
Elly De La Cruz went 4-for-5 with a solo homer, and Eugenio Suarez homered in his third straight contest for Cincinnati, which has won 17 of its last 20 games against Colorado since June 19, 2023, including seven straight wins at Coors Field.
Willi Castro homered for National League-worst Colorado (39-60), which has lost five of its last six games.
“We feel like we’re a winning baseball club,” Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer said. “We’ve come up short more than we wanted to, and we want to come out on top more going forward.”
Steer has played six different positions for the Reds this season. He has been equally valuable at the plate, batting .250 with 16 homers and 40 RBIs.
“I think he’s just a really good baseball player,” Reds manager Terry Francona said. “He’s not the fastest guy on our team, but he gets himself in position. He got that (inside-the-park homer on Friday) coming out of the box.”
Steer is one of several Cincinnati players who could be on the move ahead of the trade deadline on Aug. 3, but he said it’s not something he worries about.
“I’m going to show up and play my butt off every day, wherever that is in the field and for whatever team it is,” Steer said. “It’s so out of my control that I’ve got to focus on where my feet are.”
The pitching matchup for Saturday’s game will feature a pair of right-handers in Colorado’s Tomoyuki Sugano (8-4, 4.80 ERA) and Cincinnati’s Rhett Lowder (3-6, 4.91).
Sugano, 36, is expected to be activated from the injured list (back spasms) to make his first start since June 26, when he allowed seven runs over five innings in a no-decision against the Minnesota Twins. Colorado lost 9-8 in 10 innings. Sugano will make his second career start vs. Cincinnati. He threw 5 1/3 scoreless innings in a 13-2 road win on April 29.
Cincinnati will counter with Lowder, who is returning to the rotation and taking the place of Nick Lodolo, who is on the 15-day injured list with a blister on his left index finger.
Lowder, 24, will pitch for the first time since tossing two scoreless innings in relief in his team’s 8-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs last Sunday. He is set to make his first start since June 30, when he allowed six runs over 4 2/3 innings in a 7-2 road defeat to the Milwaukee Brewers.
Lowder will face Colorado for the first time in his career. The Rockies are looking to bounce back after being outhit 11-6 on Friday. Schaeffer is exercising patience with shortstop Ezequiel Tovar, who went 0-for-3 and is batting .198 with eight home runs and 32 RBIs this season.
“I’m still working, trying my best to turn the page, and be better, and help the team the most I can,” Tovar said. … Just believe in God and believe in myself.”

Sterling Alexiou’s main reservation about General Salute’s upcoming attempt to secure the Sydney season’s final black-type prize, following his recent Winter Stakes success, has been negated by an overnight rain deluge.
The gelding’s four career triumphs have all occurred on rain-affected going. With Rosehill initially assessed as a soft 5 earlier in the week, Alexiou had harboured concerns that the surface might not be compliant enough for General Salute’s preferences.
However, subsequent to a significant drenching on Thursday night, the track was categorised as a heavy 9 on Friday, thereby alleviating Alexiou’s anxieties.
“Possibly back to drier ground on Saturday would have been the only negative I could see,” Alexiou commented. “A lot of his best form is on soft tracks.”
General Salute’s victory in the Winter Stakes (1400m) marked the end of a 15-month winless period, during which he had secured placings in six of his seven starts, including a second-place finish to Autumn Glow in the preceding year’s Theo Marks Stakes (1300m).
Indeed, General Salute has managed to achieve a top-three finish in 12 of his 18 professional appearances. Should he manage another win in Saturday’s Listed Winter Challenge (1500m), his prize money accumulation will edge closer to the $1 million mark.
“It was good to see him bounce back, and bounce back into the winner’s stall,” Alexiou said. “He’s held his own in terms of what he’s shown us at home since that win. It’s a nice start from the 1500 so it should give Nash (Rawiller) options from a middle-draw in a big field.
“If he can get a good spot, he’ll run his usual honest race and be a good winning chance.”
A strong performance would not only serve as the ideal conclusion to General Salute’s rewarding winter campaign but would also position him for consideration towards a Group 1 target.
Having demonstrated capability up to 1400m, he finished second to Transatlantic in his sole other outing beyond that trip. If he can maintain his strength over 1500m on Saturday, a campaign towards the Epsom Handicap (1600m) will be evaluated.
“The idea of running him at 1500 is to give us a platform to see if he’s going to run a strong mile,” Alexiou explained. “If we think he might, he could be a lightweight Epsom chance.”
Consider the betting markets for the race at the Winter Challenge.

Tom Brady’s rivalry with Logan Paul took a new twist on Saturday as the two came face-to-face on stage at Fanatics Fest in New York City.
The two competitors met on stage with New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns coming in between them. The NFL legend then attempted to slap the WWE star before they were pulled apart before things could really escalate.

Brady called him a “dork.”
“I tried America… will try again next time I see this nerd,” he added.

Brady and Paul have been feuding since the seven-time Super Bowl champion said the YouTuber wasn’t a real athlete because he competed in WWE and not on the gridiron like him.

The former New England Patriots star made the initial remarks during Super Bowl week. The two had it out during the Fanatics Flag Football Classic.
Brady suggested in an interview on WWE star Cody Rhodes’ podcast “What Do You Wanna Talk About?” that he would want to get involved in a match.
“I need to get an invite. I’ve been waiting for (WWE president) Nick Khan to come up with some storyline for me to get in the mix,” Brady said Thursday. “I feel like I’m retired from football, and I have an opportunity to go out there and still showcase that I’m a little bit of an athlete.”
Brady told Fox News Digital in April 2025 that he might show up at WrestleMania 41.

Jul 17, 2026; West Sacramento, California, USA; Washington Nationals third baseman Curtis Mead (45) hits a two RBI double during the third inning against the Athletics at Sutter Health Park. Mandatory Credit: Scott Marshall-Imagn Images Andres Chaparro hit two homers and more than doubled his season count with eight RBIs as the Washington Nationals torched the lowly Athletics 23-4 on Friday night at West Sacramento, Calif.
Chaparro had seven RBIs on the season before going 4-for-5 with a walk and four runs as Washington set a season high for runs and scored in double digits for the 13th time this season. The 23 runs match the second most in franchise history, which began in 1969 as the Montreal Expos.
Daylen Lile homered and drove in four runs and Harry Ford homered in his Washington debut while Cade Cavalli pitched six solid innings.
Curtis Mead was 4-for-6 with four runs, three RBIs and three doubles and Nasim Nunez had three hits and three runs scored as Washington halted a three-game losing streak.
Tyler Soderstrom hit a two-run homer and Shea Langeliers belted a solo shot for the Athletics, who lost their 10th consecutive game.
Cavalli (6-4) struck out nine for Washington. He gave up two runs and four hits and didn’t walk anyone.
Gage Jump (3-5) of the A’s allowed four runs (three earned) and four hits in 3 2/3 innings. He struck out eight and walked two.
The Nationals began their assault in the third inning with three runs on a two-run double by Mead and a run-scoring single by Chaparro.
Washington made it 4-0 in the fourth on Jacob Young’s ground-rule double over the wall in right-center.
The Athletics got on the board in the bottom of the inning as Jacob Wilson hit a leadoff single and Soderstrom followed with a two-run homer.
Mead singled with one-out in the fifth and Chaparro hit a two-run blast to left-center that traveled 467 feet. Dylan Crews walked later in the inning and Ford followed with a two-run homer to left-center to make it 8-2. It was his first major league blast.
In the sixth inning, Wood hit a two-run single before A’s rookie center fielder Henry Bolte had trouble on three consecutive plays.
First, Bolte couldn’t find Mead’s fly to center and it dropped in for a double. Chaparro then singled to score Wood and Mead came around when Bolte fumbled the ball. Abrams then hit a deep drive in which Bolte turned the wrong direction and it short-hopped the wall for an RBI single.
Lile hit an RBI single later in the inning to make it 14-2.
Mead smacked a run-scoring double in the seventh and Chaparro followed with a three-run homer to left to make it 18-2.
Switch-throwing outfielder Carlos Cortes pitched the ninth — he threw left-handed — and allowed an RBI double to Crews, a run-scoring single to Ford and a three-run homer to Lile.

2026 World Cup parlay, best bets: Top picks for France vs. England in Saturday’s third-place match
It might not be a match many follow, but the third-place contest on Saturday, July 18 at the 2026 World Cup will be the final statement for France and England in this competition. The French, who became favorites to win the competition after the group stage, were eliminated by pre-tournament favorites Spain. England were taken out by defending champions Argentina in stunning fashion.
Both sides are unlikely to be jumping for joy at the opportunity to play in this match, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be a close contest. We’ve built a parlay for Saturday’s game with odds from FanDuel and insights from SportsLine experts Jon Eimer, Martin Green, Matt Severance, Brandt Sutton and Brad Thomas. Anyone following their World Cup betting advice at sportsbooks and on betting apps could have seen huge returns.
World Cup parlay for Saturday
- France money line in regular time
- France-England Over 3.5 goals
- Kylian Mbappe anytime goalscorer
FanDuel parlay price: +292
France money line in regular time
Les Bleus looked like shells of themselves for much of the contest against Spain, and it was an unfortunate end to Didier Deschamps’ tenure as France’s coach. This squad will want to send its manager out on a high note, and France simply have more talent across the board than England do. I expect France to shine on Saturday against an England team that might rotate a bit more to give players who haven’t gotten much playing time a World Cup appearance.
France-England Over 3.5 goals
You can take a goal back for Over 2.5 goals at a lesser price, but let’s be aggressive here. France are unlikely to be contained again, and England’s style of play doesn’t feature nearly as much possession and ball control as Spain’s. As such, France will have more space to operate. The last two third-place games have finished Under 3.5 goals, but the four previous consolation matches all went Over this line. France could get three goals on their own, and I’ll back England to log one or two in what should be a free-flowing, high-scoring game.
Kylian Mbappe anytime goalscorer
Any goals in this match still count for the Golden Boot tally, so Mbappe still has plenty to play for in that regard. The France striker is already on pace to be the all-time leading scorer in World Cups, and he can take a big step toward that goal on Saturday. Mbappe is unlikely to be slowed down for another match, and he was also a bit unlucky, with some of his shots against Spain barely missing the mark. I think he finds his way back onto the score sheet on Saturday.
The Crown Prosecution Service sees first-hand the impact that domestic abuse has on victims.
It says that of every five cases the police refers to it, four result in charges being brought.
Olivia Rose, the CPS’s National Stalking Lead, says it does not just see physical abuse. There is coercive and controlling abuse too.
“It’s crucial for victims to spot the signs early,” Rose said. “What our prosecutors see can include monitoring of victims’ phones and social media, often inundating them with dozens of messages.
“There’s also emotional blackmail, such as threatening to kill themselves if their partner leaves.
“It’s incredibly important that we get the message out to say that behaviour like this is not just unacceptable: it’s illegal.”
The CPS, the government department responsible for prosecuting criminal cases, say it works closely with the police and women’s charities to ensure that action is taken to stop such behaviour and to help victims to get away.
It says it needs help from communities too. And it is urging people to look out for friends, family and neighbours who could be vulnerable during the World Cup.
“If you can step in to help, you could be making a life-changing difference,” Rose said.
She also wants to get the message to victims that they will be supported if they speak out.
“We understand how difficult it can be to report domestic abuse,” she added. “But if you come forward, you will be taken seriously, and we will bring offenders to justice.
“The World Cup should bring communities together, and it should never be an excuse to fuel abusive behaviour.”
Anyone experiencing domestic abuse who is in immediate danger should always call 999. Victims can also report abuse to the police on 101.
Confidential support services are available. Anyone affected can contact the National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247 in England, or the Live Fear Free helpline on 0808 80 10 800 in Wales.
Solace’s Advice line is: 0808 802 5565.
