NEW YORK >> Pete Alonso homered twice and drove in five runs, Brandon Nimmo hit his second grand slam in four days and the New York Mets battered the reeling New York Yankees 12-6 on Saturday.

Carlos Rodón (9-6) was roughed up as the Yankees equaled a season high with their sixth consecutive defeat. They also dropped six straight June 13-18, marking the first time since 2000 they’ve endured two six-game losing streaks in one year.

The Mets have won four in a row following a 3-14 slide, improving the best home record in the majors to 33-13. They’ll go for a three-game sweep in the second Subway Series of the season Sunday at Citi Field.

Tigers 1, Guardians 0 >> Casey Mize threw seven innings of four-hit ball, Spencer Torkelson homered and the Detroit Tigers dealt the Cleveland Guardians their ninth straight loss, 1-0 on Saturday night.

It is the fifth time during the Guardians’ skid they have not scored a run. It was the 11th time this season they have been shut out, tied with Pittsburgh for most in the majors.

It is the third time Mize (9-2) has gone seven innings in 15 starts this season.

The right-hander walked two and struck out four as he won for the third time in his last four starts. He threw 102 pitches, only the fourth time in five big league seasons he has reached the century mark.

Marlins 4, Brewers 2 >> Rookie Agustín Ramírez hit a tiebreaking, two-run single in the eighth inning and the Miami Marlins beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2 on Saturday.

Kyle Stowers homered for Miami, Ronny Henríquez (5-1) pitched a perfect eighth and Lake Bachar retired the side on eight pitches in the ninth for his first save. The Marlins have won 10 of 12.

Milwaukee reliever Jared Koenig entered with the bases loaded and no outs in the eighth and fanned Connor Norby. He then got Otto López to hit into a force play at home before Ramírez hit a two-strike line drive to left. Ramírez has 37 RBIs, which leads NL rookies.

Orioles 9, Braves 6 >> Ramón Laureano’s double in the 10th inning gave Baltimore the lead and the Orioles hit three home runs in 9-6 win over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.

Laureano’s double down the third-base line off Rafael Montero (0-1) drove in Jordan Westburg from third base. Jacob Stallings added a two-run double in the inning.

Félix Bautista (1-1) pitched a scoreless ninth for Baltimore, which has won the first two games of the three-game series. Yennier Cano got the last three outs for his first save.

Braves left-hander Aaron Bummer recorded strikeouts on his first five outs before fading quickly in the third. Tyler O’Neill homered to lead off the inning. Bummer walked Cedric Mullins on four pitches and one out later gave up Westburg’s two-run homer.

Colton Cowser also had a two-run homer for Baltimore in the fourth.

Cardinals 8, cubs 6 >> Yohel Pozo pinch-hit a three-run homer to cap St. Louis’ five-run eight-inning rally, and the Cardinals came back to top the Chicago Cubs 8-6 on Saturday, ending a four-game slide.

Pozo’s drive off Brad Keller reached Waveland Avenue to put St. Louis ahead 8-5. Alec Burleson, who finished with three hits, cracked a solo shot to start the rally.

Nolan Gorman also went deep for the Cardinals, who rebounded after Michael Busch and Carson Kelly homered for the second straight day to help Chicago build a two-run lead after seven.

Phillies 5, Reds 1 >> Alec Bohm and Kyle Schwarber each hit two-run homers and Edmundo Sosa added a solo shot to lift the Philadelphia Phillies to a 5-1 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday.

Phillies starter Ranger Suárez was pulled by manager Rob Thomson after throwing just 80 pitches in five innings. He struck out six and lowered his ERA to 1.99, putting the left-hander in prime position to make his second straight All-Star team.

Suárez allowed seven earned runs in his first start of the season, and has now allowed only 11 over his last 11 starts. The circumstances of his early exit were not immediately known, Suárez had pitched at least seven innings in each of his last five starts and thrown at least six innings in all but his first start of the year.

Twins 6, Rays 5 >> Brooks Lee drove in the game-ending run with a bunt single in the ninth inning on Saturday as the Minnesota Twins beat the Tampa Bay Rays 6-5.

Garrett Cleavinger (0-4) walked Byron Buxton to start the ninth. Willi Castro followed with a single that moved Buxton to third.

Lee then bunted the first pitch up the first-base line. First baseman Yandy Díaz didn’t have a play on Buxton, so he let the ball go, and it rolled over the bag for a hit.

Danny Jansen singled, doubled and tripled for Tampa Bay, while Ryan Jeffers had three hits for the Twins, who walked off the Rays for the second straight day.

Blue Jays 4, Angels 3 (11 innings) >> Addison Barger hit a walk-off single in the 11th inning and the Toronto Blue Jays extended their season-best winning streak to seven by beating the Los Angeles Angels 4-3 on Saturday.

George Springer added a two-run home run, his fifth in five games, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had three hits for the Blue Jays, who won their second straight in extra innings. Toronto won 4-3 in 10 innings Friday.

Barger lined the winning hit to right field off Angels right-hander Ryan Zeferjahn (5-3).

Diamondbacks 7, Royals 1 >> Ryne Nelson retired the first 16 Kansas City batters and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Royals 7-1 on Saturday to end a three-game losing streak.

Nelson (5-2), who moved into the rotation full-time when Corbin Burnes was sidelined for the season by elbow surgery, gave up four hits and one run over seven innings. The right-hander threw 86 pitches, walked none and struck out five.

Freddy Fermin’s sharp single to center with one out in the sixth ended Nelson’s perfect-game bid. Fermin scored on Bobby Witt Jr.’s two-out single.

Josh Naylor and Eugenio Suárez had RBI singles in the third off Michael Wacha (4-9), and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. doubled in two runs in the fifth for Arizona. Gurriel also tripled in the seventh off Taylor Clarke and scored on James McCann’s double.

Wacha lasted four-plus innings, giving up four hits and four runs. He threw 97 pitches, walking four and striking out four.
