WEST SACRAMENTO >> Tyler Soderstrom hit a grand slam and a two-run homer, Max Muncy hit a three-run shot in the first inning, and the Athletics beat the Minnesota Twins 14-3 on Thursday to snap a nine-game losing streak.

Brent Rooker had three hits, three RBIs and scored three runs for the Athletics.

David Festa (0-1), who was recalled earlier Thursday from Triple-A St. Paul, pitched 3 2/3 innings and gave up seven runs for Minnesota. Jorge Alcala came on after Lawrence Butler drew a two-out walk in the fourth and gave up a single to Jacob Wilson, before Rooker walked and Soderstrom’s slam made it 11-0.

Mitch Spence (2-1) gave up a run on three hits over five innings for the Athletics.

Wilson hit a lead-off homer before Soderstrom’s two-run shot made it 7-0 in the third.

Matt Wallner hit a solo shot in the fourth, and Ty France had an RBI double and Brooks Lee a run-scoring single in the seventh. Infielder Jonah Bride made his MLB pitching debut and gave up two runs in two innings.

Shea Langeliers left the game due to an injury after he fouled off a pitch in the sixth inning.

Dodgers 6, Mets 5 >> Michael Conforto drove in the tiebreaking run in a three-run eighth inning, and Los Angeles rallied for a victory over New York to split the NL powers’ four-game series.

Conforto has struggled mightily in his first season with the Dodgers, but he drove a two-out single to left off Reed Garrett (1-2) for the Dodgers’ third unearned run of the eighth.

Will Smith delivered an RBI double moments earlier, and he scored the tying run when the Mets comically misplayed Andy Pages’ grounder to Brett Baty at third.

Diamondbacks 11, Braves 10 >> Eugenio Suárez hit a go-ahead, two-run double off Raisel Iglesias to cap a seven-run ninth inning, and Arizona stunned Atlanta to sweep a three-game series.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit a one-out homer in the ninth and Alek Thomas followed with a two-run shot, both off Scott Blewett, to get the Diamondbacks within 10-7. After Blewett walked the next batter, the Braves brought in closer Iglesias (3-5), who allowed hits to four of the next five to blow a save for the fourth time this season.

Rays 4, Rangers 3 >> Taylor Walls hit a two-run single to second baseman Marcus Semien in the ninth inning and Tampa Bay rallied to beat Texas.

Junior Caminero, who homered off Jack Leiter in the second inning, had an RBI single against Robert Garcia (1-3) to pull the Rays to 3-2 earlier in the ninth. After Jake Mangum flied out for the second out, Christopher Morel singled to load the bases.

Walls then hit a grounder to Semien, but no one was covering first base and Caminero came around to score from second for the winning run.

It marked the second straight night the Rays won on a defensive miscue.

Yankees 4, Guardians 0 >> Max Fried allowed only an infield single to José Ramírez three batters into the game in six innings to bounce back from his first loss, and New York beat Cleveland.

Cody Bellinger hit a two-run homer and added an RBI single as the Yankees headed into their first meeting against the rival Red Sox with their 16th win in 22 games. Jazz Chisholm Jr. added a late run-scoring single.

Cubs 7, Nationals 1 >> Ian Happ homered and drove in four runs on three hits, Pete Crow-Armstrong added his team-leading 16th home run Chicago beat Washington to earn its seventh consecutive series victory.

Colin Rea (4-2) allowed five hits over 5 1/3 scoreless innings after opener Drew Pomeranz completed a clean first as the Cubs won the rubber game and their 16th of their last 21 games overall.

Orioles 4, Mariners 3 >> Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson hit back-to-back homers in the sixth inning, and Baltimore beat Seattle to complete a three-game sweep and extend its season-best winning streak to six games.

After the Orioles (25-36) played so poorly through mid-May that manager Brandon Hyde was fired after leading them to back-to-back playoff appearances, they looked like a contender against a strong Seattle squad.

Blue Jays 9, Phillies 1 >> Bo Bichette hit a two-run homer, Myles Straw and Tyler Heineman each had two hits and three RBIs, and Toronto beat Philadelphia, handing the slumping Phillies their sixth loss in seven games.

Alejandro Kirk had three hits, scored once and drove in a run as the Blue Jays took two of three from Philadelphia.

White Sox 3, Tigers 2 (10 inn.) >> Tim Elko singled and scored pinch runner Korey Lee in the 10th inning to give Chicago a walk-off win over American League-leading Detroit.

With the win, Chicago split the four-game series. The Tigers had swept the White Sox in April in the first of four series between the teams this season.

Cardinals 6, Royals 5 (Game 1; 10 inn.) >> Willson Contreras had an RBI single in the 10th inning to give St. Louis a victory over Kansas City in the first game of a day-night doubleheader.

Yohel Pozo scored on a fielder’s choice to tie it for the Cardinals before Contreras singled to left against Carlos Estévez (2-1) to score Lars Nootbaar.

Royals 7, Cardinals 5 (Game 2) >> Maikel Garcia homered, doubled and scored three times, and Kansas City beat St. Louis in the second game of a day-night doubleheader.

Royals starter Cole Ragans pitched three innings in his return from the 15-day injured list with a left groin strain. He allowed five runs on five hits, struck out four and walked three.
