Dodgers Blast Twins (10-3) for 9th Straight Win by Multiple Runs

Los Angeles is still cruising! The Dodgers won their ninth straight game by multiple runs on Tuesday over the Twins (10-3), securing their longest such win streak in franchise history. Max Muncy hit a home run while every Dodger who stepped to the plate recorded a hit — 15 total. Julio Urias tossed eight Ks in seven innings of one-run ball, and the Dodgers (76-33) have surged past the Yankees (71-39) and Mets (72-39) to the top of the majors.

Sox Lose Sale: Red Sox ace Chris Sale started just two games this season, and now he’ll be out for the rest of the year after suffering a fractured wrist in a biking accident over the weekend.

 

Padres Break Slump: After winning the trade deadline, the new-look Padres went 26 innings without a run. That changed on Tuesday when Juan Soto hit his first homer in San Diego’s 7-4 win over the Giants.

 

Ohtani’s Double Duty: Shohei Ohtani led the Angels over the A’s in a California battle (5-1) with a dominating performance on the mound and at the plate. Ohtani struck out five over six innings with zero runs allowed, and he went 2-for-3 with a homer.
