West Sacramento >> Seiya Suzuki homered twice and drove in five runs as the Chicago Cubs beat the Athletics 10-2 on Wednesday to complete a three-game sweep.

Matt Shaw added two RBI singles for the Cubs, who outscored the A’s 35-9 in the first major league series played at Sutter Health Park, the club’s planned home for the next three years before a proposed relocation to Las Vegas.

Suzuki hit an early three-run homer for the second consecutive game when he connected in the second inning off Jeffrey Springs (1-1). Suzuki went deep again leading off the fourth before adding a late RBI single.

Mets 6, Marlins 5 >> Pete Alonso launched a three-run homer that tied the score with two outs in the eighth inning and New York scored twice in the 11th to beat Miami.

Alonso also doubled twice and finished with four RBIs. All three of his hits came off the bat at 113 mph or more.

Red Sox 3, Orioles 0 >> Garrett Crochet pitched eight outstanding innings in his first start with his big new contract, and Boston blanked Baltimore.

Trevor Story homered for the Red Sox, and Kristian Campbell — who also got a sizeable new deal from the Red Sox — had two hits. And Rafael Devers finally broke through with his first two hits of the season, including an RBI double in the fifth.

Twins 6, White Sox 1 >> Harrison Bader and Byron Buxton hit home runs to back Pablo López’s solid start and Minnesota beat Chicago after rain delayed the start by nearly 3 1/2 hours.

Padres 5, Guardians 2 >> Jackson Merrill hit a two-run homer a few hours after finalizing a $135 million, nine-year contract and San Diego started 7-0 for the first time in their 57-season history by beating Cleveland.

Fernando Tatis Jr. raced home on the back end of a double steal to start the scoring in the four-run third inning for the Padres, whose previous best start was 4-0 in 1984, when they went to their first World Series.

Cardinals 12, Angels 5 >> Iván Herrera hit three home runs to help St. Louis beat Los Angeles.

Herrera hit his third home run of the game, and of the season, off Brock Burke to cap a seven-run eighth inning for the Cardinals. Herrera hit a two-run homer in the sixth, and a solo shot in the fourth off Angels starter Yusei Kikuchi to give him his first career multi-home run game.

Willson Contreras drew a bases-loaded walk off Burke to break a 5-5 tie after Ian Anderson (0-1) allowed three straight hits to open the bottom of the eighth inning.

Blue Jays 4, Nationals 2 >> Easton Lucas allowed one hit over five scoreless innings in his first major league start, and Toronto beat Washington to complete a three-game sweep.

It was hardly baseball weather with snow falling outside Rogers Centre, which had the roof closed for the afternoon game.

Lucas (1-0) struck out three and walked two in a composed 74-pitch outing.

Brewers 3, Royals 2 (11 INN.) >> Brice Turang dropped a perfect bunt to score Oliver Dunn in the 11th inning and Milwaukee beat Kansas City.

Pinch-runner Dunn advanced from second base on Garett Mitchell’s groundout off Sam Long (0-2). Joey Ortiz walked. Turang, who was 0 for 5 for the game, laid down a bunt in front of the plate and raced to first as Dunn scored.

Jared Koenig (1-0) picked up the win with a scoreless 11th.

Pirates 4, Rays 2 >> Paul Skenes needed nearly three innings to warm up Wednesday, then struck out six over seven innings and Pittsburgh beat Tampa Bay.

Oneil Cruz hit his second home run of the season and drove in another to give Skenes, the 2024 National League Rookie of the Year, his first win of 2025.

The 22-year-old right-hander did not walk a batter and was on the mound when the Rays scored an unearned run in the sixth.

Rangers 1, Reds 0 >> Jack Leiter shut Cincinnati down for the second game in a row and Texas won to take the three-game series.

The Rangers were outscored 14-5 in the three games but still won the series.

Phillies 5, Rockies 1 >> Zack Wheeler struck out 10 in seven sharp innings and Trea Turner had three hits in his return to the starting lineup as Philadelphia defeated Colorado.

Dodgers 6, Braves 5 >> Shohei Ohtani hit a tiebreaking home run in the ninth inning on his bobblehead night, lifting Los Angeles over winless Atlanta.

The Dodgers improved to 8-0, the best start ever by a defending World Series champion.

Max Muncy tied the game with a two-run double in the eighth off reliever Raisel Iglesias (0-1) after the third baseman’s two errors led to five unearned runs by the Braves early.
