METS 3, DODGERS 1 Pete Alonso ended the longest home run drought of his career with a two-run shot and New York took advantage of some shoddy Los Angeles defense in a victory Sunday night. Shohei Ohtani hit a leadoff homer — hours after throwing 22 pitches of live batting practice in a significant rehab step — but that was all Los Angeles could muster against Kodai Senga (5-3) and three relievers. A hustling Juan Soto contributed an RBI groundout and a difficult running catch in deep right field to help the Mets take two of three from the Dodgers. Los Angeles committed a season-high four errors, two of which led to all three Mets runs.
ATHLETICS 5, PHILLIES 4 Willie MacIver had a tiebreaking single for his first big league hit in a two-run, eighth-inning rally, then capped his debut by throwing out a runner attempting to steal for the final out as the Athletics beat Philadelphia to stop a nine-game slide and the Phillies’ 11- game winning streak.
