Springer's two homers help Blue Jays sweep Yankees, take AL East lead
TORONTO (AP) — George Springer hit two two-run home runs and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the New York Yankees 8-5 on Thursday night to complete a four-game sweep and take sole possession of the AL East lead. Addison Barger had a solo homer among his three hits for New York. Aaron Judge drew his 23rd intentional walk in the eighth, matching Mickey Mantle's 1957 team record. Jasson Domínguez had four hits for New York, but the Yankees were swept for the second time. They lost all three at Boston between June 13 and 15. New York is 10-16 against AL East opponents. Chris Bassitt (8-4) struck out nine in 5 2/3 innings, improving to 4-0 in five career home starts against the Yankees. Jeff Hoffman finished for his 21st save in 25 chances. Springer went 3 for 4 with four RBIs and scored three times. The homers were his 14th and 15th. Barger and Nathan Lukes each had three hits and two RBIs as Toronto won for the 11th time in 16 and jumped one game ahead of New York. MARLINS 4, TWINS 1 MIAMI (AP) — Agustín Ramírez hit a two-run home run, Xavier Edwards singled twice and Miami won its fourth straight series with a victory over Minnesota. Eury Pérez (1-2) struck out a season-high seven and walked one in six innings of one-hit ball for his first win since June 25, 2023, against Pittsburgh. Cade Gibson relieved Pérez in the seventh after 80 pitches. The Marlins have won 10 of their past 12 — including an eight-game winning streak — and have the same record as the Atlanta Braves for third in the NL East. The Twins went 2-4 in their six-game road trip, also losing a series at Detroit. Ramírez connected on a 1-2 fastball from Twins starter David Festa (2-3) and launched it 425 feet to left-center during a three-run first. Festa allowed five hits and four runs with seven strikeouts in six innings. Edwards hit leadoff singles in the first and third and stole his team-leading 15th base. Kyle Stowers went 0-for-3, ending his nine-game hitting streak. Ronny Henriquez earned his fifth save. ROCKIES 7, ASTROS 6 DENVER (AP) — Thairo Estrada hit a two-run homer in the first inning and drove in four runs to help Colorado Rockies beat Houston. Colorado improved to 9-34 at home, still the worst home start in the modern era. The Rockies have lost all 14 series at Coors Field. Juan Mejia (1-0) got the win in relief of Kyle Freeland, who threw six solid innings, and Seth Halvorsen picked up his seventh save. Halvorsen gave up a leadoff triple to Jake Meyers and a pair of two-out singles before getting Victor Caratini on a flyout to right to end it. Houston tied it at 5 in seventh on Cam Smith's two-run triple, and Colorado got it right back in the bottom of inning. After Tyler Freeman was thrown out at home trying to score from first on Mickey Moniak's double, Jordan Beck singled to make it 6-5, stole second and scored on Estrada's two-out single off reliever Jordan Weems (0-1). Houston scored twice in the first inning, and Estrada tied with his homer it in the bottom of the inning. Isaac Paredes had an RBI double for Houston in the second, and Estrada tied it in the third with an RBU groundout. Ryan Ritter's two-run single in the fourth gave Colorado the lead. ANGELS 5, BRAVES 1 ATLANTA (AP) — Zach Neto had three hits, including a homer, Nolan Schanuel added a two-run blast and José Soriano allowed only three hits in seven scoreless innings to lead Los Angeles to a victory over weak-hitting Atlanta. The Braves avoided a shutout on Jurickson Profar's ninth-inning homer off left-hander Brock Burke. It was Profar's second homer in two games since returning from an 80-game PED suspension. Soriano (6-5) had seven strikeouts and did not allow a baserunner to reach second base. Neto scored three runs. Bryce Elder (2-6) gave up four runs on eight hits and three walks in five innings. Elder's third consecutive loss is a disturbing trend for a team that placed right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach on the 15-day injured list with a fractured right elbow on Wednesday. NATIONALS 11, TIGERS 7 WASHINGTON (AP) — James Wood had a career-high five hits including his 23rd home run hours after being named to the Home Run Derby, Jake Irvin survived a rocky first to pitch six solid innings, and Washington beat Detroit. Wood also had four singles, two RBIs and scored three runs. Alex Call had three hits for Washington, which has won three of four. Paul DeJong, in his third game back from the injured list, added a three-run homer. After allowing three runs and three hits in the first, Irvin (7-3) tossed five scoreless innings and did not allow another hit. It was career win No. 500 for Nationals manager Dave Martinez. Detroit rallied late as Gleyber Torres and Wenceel Perez had RBI singles in the seventh. Parker Meadows singled home a run in the eighth and another scored on Javier Baez's ground out to make it 9-7. However, Luis Garcia Jr. and Call had RBI singles in the bottom half. Spencer Torkelson hit a three-run homer for the AL-leading Tigers, who are 8-8 over their past 16 games. Dietrich Enns (1-1) allowed eight runs and eight hits in four-plus innings for Detroit. METS 3, BREWERS 2 NEW YORK (AP) — Brandon Nimmo homered again, Juan Soto came through with a tiebreaking single and New York held off Milwaukee. David Peterson (6-4) rebounded from a pair of rough starts, tossing 6 2/3 effective innings to give New York's injury-ravaged rotation a much-needed boost. Pete Alonso added an RBI double as the Mets took two of three from Milwaukee — just as they did in their Wild Card Series during the National League playoffs last October. Next stop, the second Subway Series of the season against the crosstown-rival New York Yankees. Fans in the sellout crowd of 42,241 received replica Soto jerseys on Fireworks Night, and the $765 million slugger gave New York a 2-1 lead in the sixth when he grounded an RBI single off hard-luck loser Jose Quintana (6-3), who spent the past two seasons with the Mets. Alonso then drove the first pitch from reliever Nick Mears off the left-center fence for a double that made it 3-1. Andruw Monasterio hit his first homer this year off Peterson in the seventh, but the Mets hung on for their second consecutive victory after losing 14 of 17. Ryne Stanek got four straight outs, ending the eighth with a primal scream after striking out all three batters in the inning. Edwin Díaz fanned two in a scoreless ninth for his 18th save in 19 opportunities. CUBS 1, GUARDIANS 0, 10 INNINGS CHICAGO (AP) — Rookie Matt Shaw's deep sacrifice fly to center scored Nico Hoerner from third in the 10th inning, giving Chicago a win over Cleveland. Hoerner, the automatic runner, advanced to third on Michael Busch's groundout. He trotted home on Shaw's liner that Lane Thomas caught in front of the ivy at Wrigley Field . Dansby Swanson had two of Chicago's three hits as the Cubs swept the series and dealt the Guardians a season-high seventh straight loss. Chris Flexen (5-0), the Cubs fourth reliever, pitched a perfect 10th for the win. NL Central-leading Chicago improved to 52-35 and moved four games ahead of second-place Milwaukee. Cleveland closer Emmanuel Clase (4-2), pitched the ninth and 10th and took the loss. Steven Kwan had two singles in a game with no extra-base hits.

Rockies President set to step down after ugly 2025 campaign
The post Rockies President set to step down after ugly 2025 campaign appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Colorado Rockies are in the midst of a dismal season. A recent win streak isn't enough to dig them out of the hole of an 18-62 record thus far. Advertisement On Thursday, the team received big news that long-time president Greg Feasel will be leaving after this year. 'The Colorado Rockies announced today that President & Chief Operating Officer Greg Feasel, a member of the Rockies front office since 1995, will step down at the end of the 2025 season,' the team said in a statement. 'As part of this transition, former Vice President of Corporate Partnerships Walker Monfort has moved into the role of executive vice president of the Rockies, effective immediately. He will lead the club alongside Feasel through the transition and will officially assume his responsibilities in January 2026.' Feasel is a former football player who played in the NFL and the United States Football League (USFL) from 1980-1987. He played for the Seattle Seahawks, Philadelphia Eagles, Houston Oilers, Green Bay Packers, and San Diego Chargers. Advertisement In the USFL, he played for the Denver Gold from 1983-1985. In 1996, Feasel joined the Rockies. He later became the chief operating officer in 2012. Feasel became the team president in April 2021. That same year, he took over as GM following the departure of Jeff Bridich after 21 games. The Rockies under Greg Feasel Colorado became an expansion team in 1993, three years prior to Feasel's involvement. Since then, they reached the playoffs five times, each time as Wild Card teams. In 1995, Colorado made their first playoff appearance. They lost to the eventual champion Atlanta Braves in the NL Division Series. In 2007, the Rockies won their first National League pennant and made it to the World Series. Advertisement They would lose to the Boston Red Sox. Colorado made other other playoff appearances in 2009, 2017, and 2018. Along the way, they produced hall of famers in Todd Helton and Larry Walker.
