Orioles  2, Tigers 1 – F/10 – Orioles beat Tigers 2-1 in 10, run winning streak to 6  

  Adam  Frazier dashed home on Mason Englert’s wild pitch in the bottom of the 10th  inning to give the Baltimore Orioles their sixth straight victory, 2-1 over the  Detroit Tigers. The Orioles won for the 10th time in 12 games, this time on a  day when Detroit’s Eduardo Rodriguez retired the first 20 Baltimore hitters. The  Tigers left 13 men on base, including three in the 10th after Orioles manager  Brandon Hyde issued two intentional walks. Those allowed left-hander Keegan  Akin (1-1) to face lefty hitters, and end the threat, and Englert was unable to  do the same in the bottom half. Frazier pinch-ran as the automatic runner and  moved to third on a sacrifice bunt. He scored when Englert’s first pitch to Jorge  Mateo skipped away.

Rays  4, White Sox 1 – Rays get 13th consecutive home win, beat White Sox 4-1 

  Zach  Eflin pitched five effective innings in his return from injury and the Tampa  Bay Rays hit two more home runs, beating the slumping Chicago White Sox 4-1 for  their 13th consecutive home win to begin the season. Tampa Bay improved to 19-3  overall and tied the 2009 Los Angeles Dodgers for the second-longest home  winning streak to start a season since 1901. The 1907 New York Giants opened  with 15 straight wins at home. Luke Raley and Harold Ramirez went deep for the  Rays, who have homered in each of their first 22 games — extending their major  league record. Eflin allowed one run and three hits in a game that took only 2  hours, 2 minutes. Peter Fairbanks got his third save.

Dodgers  7, Cubs 3 – Mookie Betts homers, drives in 4 as Dodgers beat Cubs 7-3 

  Mookie  Betts homered and drove in four runs in his first career start at shortstop,  and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs 7-3. Max Muncy and J.D.  Martinez also connected as Los Angeles took three of four in the series at  Wrigley Field. Clayton Kershaw pitched six innings of three-hit ball in career  win No. 201. Betts, a six-time Gold Glove winner in right field who made his  big league debut in 2014, hit a tying two-run shot off Marcus Stroman in the  third inning. He also lined a two-run double to left in the ninth.

NCAAFB – Clock will no longer stop on first downs

  The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel has approved  rules changes that are expected to reduce the number of plays in football  games. The most notable is one that will keep the clock running when a team  makes a first down except in the last two minutes of a half. The new clock rule  affects only Divisions I and II. Penalties accepted at the end of the first and  third quarters will now be enforced at the start of the following quarter and  back-to-back timeouts during the same dead-ball period are no longer allowed.

NASCAR – Busch wins under caution at Talladega in  double overtime

  Kyle Busch won his second race of the season since  joining Richard Childress Racing when he snatched the victory in double  overtime at Talladega Superspeedway. It was the second win for Busch at  Talladega, 15 years apart. He won when Bubba Wallace was spun by Ryan Blaney as  Wallace tried to block Blaney. It triggered a race-ending caution that gave RCR  its 13th victory at NASCAR’s biggest track. Blaney finished second to lead a  parade of Ford drivers to second through fifth-place finishes.
