Durbin's walk-off single lifts brewers to 6-5 win over nationals

Al Arabiyaa day ago
Caleb Durbin hit an RBI single with one out in the ninth inning to cap a three-run rally and give Milwaukee a 6-5 victory over the Washington Nationals on Saturday–the Brewers' sixth consecutive victory. Jackson Chourio singled to open the ninth against Kyle Finnegan (1-3), who came on to open the inning. Christian Yelich walked on four pitches, and Andrew Vaughn followed with a two-run double to right-center to make it 5-all. Pinch-runner Andruw Monasterio took third on a groundout. Brice Turang was walked intentionally and advanced to second on defensive indifference. Durbin then sliced a singled down the right-field line.
Rookie Brady House had his first two career homers for the Nationals, including a two-run shot in the eighth that put Washington up 4-3. CJ Abrams added a sacrifice fly in the ninth to make it 5-3. Grant Anderson (2-3) pitched the ninth.
The Brewers erased a 2-0 deficit with three runs in the fourth off Shinnosuke Ogasawara, making his second major league start after nine seasons in Japan. Sal Frelick was hit by a pitch to open, and William Contreras singled. Jackson Chourio followed with an RBI double to left, then after an out, Vaughn lined a two-run double. Daylen Lile staked the Nationals to a 1-0 lead against Brandon Woodruff in the second with a two-out solo homer. House made it 2-0 in the fourth with his first career home run.
Key Moment: After giving up one run in the ninth, Anderson struck out Nathaniel Lowe to end the inning with runners on first and second.
Key Stat: Vaughn, recalled Monday from Triple-A Nashville, has an RBI in each of his first five games with the Brewers, extending his franchise record.
Up Next: RHP Freddy Peralta (10-4, 2.74 ERA) starts for the Brewers on Sunday; RHP Jake Irvin (7-4, 4.78) for the Nationals.

Brewers rf sal frelick departs after making a sliding grab

Milwaukee right fielder Sal Frelick left Sunday's game against Washington after making a terrific catch in foul territory in the third inning. Frelick, a Gold Glove winner last year, made a sliding grab on Jacob Young's sinking flyball. He stayed down briefly before walking off with a trainer. The Brewers said Frelick experienced some left hamstring soreness. He was replaced by Isaac Collins. 'His hamstring last week, he was feeling it a little bit, and he was cautious,' manager Pat Murphy said. 'He got treatment for it.' Murphy said Frelick was getting an MRI after the game. The 25-year-old Frelick, a first-round pick in the 2021 amateur draft, hit an RBI single in Milwaukee's three-run second. He also made a leaping catch on Daylen Lile's drive to right in the second. Frelick is batting .294 with a career-high seven homers and 39 RBIs in 93 games this season. He also has 17 steals.

Mlb-best Tigers Limping Into All-star Game Break With Season-high, 4-game Losing Streak After Sweep

The Detroit Tigers were showered with a smattering of boos as they walked off the field for the last time before the All-Star Game. Seattle defeated Detroit 8-4 on Sunday, sealing a three-game sweep that gave the Major League-leading Tigers a season-high four-game losing streak. 'We've stumbled a little going into the break,' Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty acknowledged. 'But I think if you told everyone in here and in Detroit what record we'd have in the first half, where we would be in the division, where we would be overall, and that we would have six All-Stars, I think a lot of people would be happy with that.' The Tigers are 59-38, giving them the best record going into the All-Star Game for the seventh time in team history and first since 2006. Detroit has an 11 1/2-game lead over second-place Minnesota in the Central, giving it the largest lead in the division or league at the break in franchise history. The Tigers will be represented by a team-record six All-Stars: pitchers Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize, outfielders Riley Greene and Javier Baez, second baseman Gleyber Torres, and infielder Zach McKinstry. Detroit even had its bat boy, Frankie Boyd, voted into the Midsummer Classic on Tuesday night in Atlanta. 'I want our guys to be proud and also hungry,' manager A.J. Hinch said. The Tigers will definitely want to get a bad taste out of their mouths after giving up 35 runs over three games to the Mariners, who scored 15 runs in the ninth innings of the three games. 'We didn't finish the game, which isn't our norm,' Hinch said. 'We've been very good at playing the entire game.' The Tigers will have 65 games left in the regular season to hold on for their first division title in 11 years and to secure home-field advantage in the playoffs, hoping to win a World Series for the first time since 1984. Ahead of the July 31 trade deadline, general manager Scott Harris may make moves to bolster the bullpen and perhaps the lineup. Detroit will have four days off before resuming play at Texas on Friday night, and Hinch is thankful for the timing. 'There's been a lot going on around our team, and after this weekend we could all use a break,' Hinch said. 'Six guys are going to get a little bit of energy from the big stage of the All-Star Game, and the rest of us will get some rest.'

Kyle Stowers hits 3 homers, drives in 6 runs to lead Marlins past the Orioles 11-1

All-Star Kyle Stowers had his first three-homer game and drove in six runs against his former team, leading the Miami Marlins to an 11-1 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday. Stowers is the first Marlins player to hit three homers in a game since Brian Anderson on Sept. 18, 2020, in the second game of a doubleheader against Washington. The 27-year-old left fielder also joins fellow Marlins Mike Lowell (2004) and Cody Ross (2006) in accomplishing the feat. Ramón Laureano homered for Baltimore, which has lost consecutive games for the first time since July 1-2. Stowers led off the second inning with a shot to right against Brandon Young (0-4) to open the scoring. An inning later, he sent Young's first-pitch curveball 398 feet for a two-run blast to right-center. In the fifth, Stowers worked a 2-2 count before homering over the scoreboard in right. The 27-year-old had a base hit in the seventh and added an RBI single in the eighth for his first career five-hit game. It was Stowers fourth multi-homer game of the season. At the break, he has career highs in home runs (19) and RBIs (54). Baltimore selected Stowers in the second round of the 2019 amateur draft. He debuted in 2022, and the Orioles sent him to Miami at last year's trade deadline as part of a package for pitcher Trevor Rogers. Otto Lopez followed Stowers' homer in the third with a solo shot–the second time Miami hit consecutive home runs this season. Miami starter Eury Pérez (3-2) allowed three hits and struck out six in seven shutout innings. Young surrendered a career-high seven runs in 4 1/3 innings. The game was delayed 1 hour 38 minutes at the start due to rain. Key moment: Stowers' third homer made it 7-0 and ended the day for Young, who gave up more home runs (four) than he had in his first five starts combined (three). Key stat: Stowers is the first player to hit three home runs against Baltimore since Toronto's Bo Bichette in the second game of a doubleheader on Sept. 5, 2022. Up next: Miami hosts Kansas City after the All-Star break. RHP Charlie Morton (5-7, 5.18 ERA) starts Friday when Baltimore opens a series at Tampa Bay.
