Game Results

The Dodgers lost their seventh straight game after Diamondbacks rookie Ryan Waldschmidt crushed a two-run walk-off homer off closer Edwin Díaz in a 4-3 stunner. Braves manager Walt Weiss was ejected in the fifth inning against the Yankees for vehemently arguing a balk charged to ace Chris Sale. Kaelen Culpepper homered in his second MLB plate appearance, igniting a Twins comeback win to bolster their playoff push. Payton Tolle fanned a career-high 14 over six innings as the Red Sox routed the Athletics for their ninth consecutive victory.

Roster Moves & Injuries

The skidding White Sox, losers of four straight, are calling up two key pitching prospects from Triple-A Charlotte. The Athletics and longtime general manager David Forst "mutually agreed to part ways," ending his three-decade run ahead of the franchise's relocation to Las Vegas. Blake Snell is expected to return from the injured list Tuesday against the Royals.

Milestones & Honors

Chase Utley, the six-time All-Star second baseman who anchored the Phillies' 2008 World Series run, was inducted into the team's Wall of Fame in a star-studded ceremony. Mariano Rivera returned to the field at Yankee Stadium for Old-Timers' Day, one year after tearing his Achilles tendon during the same event.
