MLB roundup: Jazz Chisholm Jr. helps Yankees outlast Phillies

Aaron Judge contributed three hits, while Anthony Volpe had two hits for the Yankees, who extended their winning streak to four games. Chisholm, who was acquired from the Miami Marlins on Saturday, finished the night with five RBIs and has hit four home runs in the past two games.

Gerrit Cole was unable to start for the Yankees due to "general body fatigue," according to the team. Reliever Michael Tonkin (4-4) earned the win.

Austin Hays homered, singled, and drove in four runs for the Phillies, who have now lost three consecutive games. Orion Kerkering (2-2) was credited with the loss.

The New York Mets triumphed over the Minnesota Twins with a score of 2-0. Sean Manaea, along with two relievers, collaborated to limit the Twins to just two hits during the second game of a three-game interleague series held in New York.

J.D. Martinez contributed significantly with two hits, one of which was an RBI single in the fourth inning, while Mark Vientos added to the score with a home run in the fifth inning.

This victory marked New York's record at 17-9 for the month. Manaea (7-4) showcased an impressive performance, allowing only two hits, issuing one walk, and striking out 11 batters over the course of seven innings.

Twins' rookie David Festa (1-2) faced a tough defeat, surrendering two runs on three hits across five innings of work.

The Atlanta Braves defeated the Milwaukee Brewers with a score of 5-1. Bryce Elder, who was called up from the minors, pitched a shutout until the seventh inning.

Jarred Kelenic, who hails from Waukesha, Wis., hit a home run and a double to help lead the Braves to victory. Kelenic's double in the third inning contributed to a four-run lead, and his 12th homer of the season in the fourth inning extended the lead to 5-0.

Elder, with a record of 2-4, allowed only one run on five hits in 6 1/3 innings. Brewers' right-hander Joe Ross (2-5) gave up five runs on eight hits in five innings in his first big-league start since May 20.

The Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Miami Marlins with a score of 9-3. Ben Rortvedt and Yandy Diaz each contributed two-run singles during a five-run sixth inning, leading the Rays to victory in the first game of a two-game series in St. Petersburg, Florida.

In his debut game with the Rays following a trade from the Chicago Cubs, Christopher Morel hit a home run. Rays' starting pitcher Jeffrey Springs, who had undergone Tommy John surgery in April 2023, made his first major league start, allowing two runs and six hits in 3 2/3 innings.

Tyler Alexander (4-3) secured the win after giving up one run in 2 1/3 innings of relief. Emmanuel Rivera and Jake Burger hit home runs, while Nick Fortes had three hits for the Marlins.
