WASHINGTON (AP) — In the highest-scoring game in franchise history, Daniel Murphy hit two early home runs and the Washington Nationals kept pouring it on against emergency reliever Jose Reyes and the New York Mets in a 25-4 rout Tuesday night.

Trea Turner, who apologized before the game to his teammates for homophobic and racially insensitive tweets he sent several years ago, had four of Washington’s 26 hits. Pitcher Tanner Roark (5-12) hit a three-run double during a seven-run first inning.

The Nationals set the team scoring mark dating to their days as the Montreal Expos in 1969. It was the Mets’ most-lopsided loss in their 57-season history, worse than a 26-7 pounding by Philadelphia in 1985.

PIRATES 5, CUBS 4

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Gregory Polanco hit his team-leading 19th home run, Francisco Cervelli added his 10th of the season and Pittsburgh finished off a frantic trade deadline day with a victory.

Hours after trading for Texas closer Keone Kela and Tampa Bay starter Chris Archer to give their postseason hopes a jolt, the Pirates won for the 16th time in 20 games by getting to Jon Lester (12-4) in the middle innings and holding on late.

YANKEES 6, ORIOLES 3

NEW YORK (AP) — Masahiro Tanaka pitched six scoreless innings to extend his unbeaten streak to 13 starts, Miguel Andujar hit a three-run homer and New York beat Baltimore after the veteran-shedding Orioles dealt away three more players.

Coming off a three-hit shutout of Tampa Bay, Tanaka found his command after a 31-pitch first inning and limited the Orioles to a pair of singles and a double. 

PHILLIES 3, RED SOX 1

BOSTON (AP) — Jake Arrieta struck out seven in seven strong innings and Philadelphia snapped a four-game slide.

The Phillies earned a split in a two-game visit to Boston despite leaving 13 on base and going 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position.

INDIANS 6, TWINS 2

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Jose Ramirez and Edwin Encarnacion combined to drive in five runs and Trevor Bauer earned his 10th win.

One day after hitting a pair of homers against the Twins, Ramirez’s bat stayed hot at Target Field. He drove in a run with a double in the third inning and added an RBI single in the fifth as part of a three-hit night.

BRAVES 11, MARLINS 6

ATLANTA (AP) — Kolby Allard, supported by a 19-hit attack that included three home runs, won his major league debut.

TIGERS 2, REDS 1

DETROIT (AP) — Matthew Boyd allowed four hits in eight scoreless innings, and Niko Goodrum homered in the fourth to lift Detroit.

Homer Bailey (1-8) retired his first 11 batters before Goodrum went deep for his 10th home run of the year. The Tigers never gave up the lead. Boyd struck out seven and walked one before being lifted after 105 pitches.

Shane Greene allowed a run in the ninth but held on for his 22nd save in 25 chances.

Boyd (6-9) won his second straight start after going seven in a row without a victory.

RAYS 10, ANGELS 6

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — After making a series of trades just before the non-waiver trade deadline, Tampa Bay broke through with a seven-run inning and beat Los Angeles despite Mike Trout’s 30th home run.

Trout’s homer, which came off Ryan Yarbrough in the seventh inning, made him the second major leaguer to hit 30 home runs and steal 20 bases in a season three times before the age of 26. The only other player to do it was Willie Mays.

ROYALS 4,

 WHITE SOX 2

CHICAGO (AP) — Ryan O’Hearn hit a two-run homer in his major league debut, helping Danny Duffy and Kansas City beat Chicago.

DIAMONDBACKS 6, RANGERS 0

PHOENIX (AP) — Zack Godley matched a career high with 10 strikeouts, leading Arizona past Texas to move back atop the NL West.

Arizona (60-49) overtook the Dodgers (59-49) for first place when Los Angeles fell 1-0 to Milwaukee. That came hours after the Diamondbacks added relievers Brad Ziegler and Jake Diekman via trades just ahead of the non-waiver deadline. Diekman was acquired from the Rangers and was driven from one clubhouse to another by Arizona’s bullpen cart.

BREWERS 1,

 DODGERS 0

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Wade Miley remained undefeated at Dodger Stadium, delivering seven scoreless innings in Milwaukee’s win over Los Angeles.

In seven starts in Los Angeles, Miley is now 4-0 with a 2.06 ERA. The left-hander got some help from center fielder Lorenzo Cain, who appeared to rob the Dodgers’ Cody Bellinger of a game-tying home run with a leaping catch at the wall to end the seventh inning. Cain also drove in Milwaukee’s only run with a two-out double in the third.

ASTROS 5, MARINERS 2

SEATTLE (AP) — Evan Gattis hit a two-run home run to put Houston ahead, Josh Reddick capped it with a two-run shot in the ninth inning, and the Astros snapped a five-game losing streak.

Gattis’ 21st home run of the season came in the sixth off Seattle starter Mike Leake and snapped a 1-1 tie. Leake (8-7) left a breaking ball in the middle of the plate and Gattis clubbed it over the left field fence to put the Astros in front.
