CLEVELAND

Aaron Hicks drove home Didi Gregorius from first base with a one- out double in the eighth inning off Cleveland ace Corey Kluber, sending the New York Yankees to a 7-4 win over the Cleveland Indians on Thursday.

Hicks drove a 3-2 pitch from Kluber (12-5) to deep center field, and Gregorius scored easily when the ball one- hopped the wall.

Brett Gardner homered twice and Gregorius also connected for the Yankees, playing at Progressive Field for the first time since last October, when they overcame a 2-0 deficit and won the AL Division Series.

New York relievers Adam Warren, David Robertson ( 6- 3), Dellin Betances and All- Star closer Aroldis Chapman combined for four hitless innings. Chapman got three outs for his 25th save — in his first appearance since Saturday because of a sore left knee.

Angels 11, Mariners 2

ANAHEIM, Calif. ( AP) — Albert Pujols hit two home runs to tie Ken Griffey Jr. for sixth place on the career list with 630, and Los Angeles romped over Seattle.

Tyler Skaggs pitched six strong innings in his return from the disabled list. Pujols hit a two-run shot in the first and a solo drive in the sixth. He also had three hits to pass ex-Angel Rod Carew and move into a tie for 25th all-time with Rickey Henderson at 3,055.

It was the 50th multihomer game for Pujols, who went back- to- back with Justin Upton in the sixth.

David Fletcher also homered in the first off Mariners starter James Paxton, who left the game with lower back stiffness after Pujols connected for the first time. Paxton (8- 4) threw just 17 pitches in his final start of the first half.

Skaggs ( 7- 5), who missed nine games with a hamstring strain, gave up one run and five hits with five strikeouts. The left- hander has allowed one earned run or less in six consecutive outings, the longest such streak from an Angels starter since George Brunet in 1968.

Dodgers 3, Padres 2

SAN DIEGO ( AP) — Andrew Toles broke a scoreless tie with an RBI single off Tyson Ross in the seventh inning to help All- Star Ross Stripling and Los Angeles take three of four from last- place San Diego.

Ross (5-8) took a one-hit shutout into the seventh before it fell apart. Chris Taylor doubled with one out and manager Andy Green came out to check on the big right- hander. Green let Ross stay in, but he allowed Toles’ single on his 101st pitch and was pulled.

Craig Stammen loaded the bases before pinchhitter Matt Kemp singled to bring in Toles. Joc Pederson followed with an RBI single.

Stripling (8-2) held the Padres to six hits in six scoreless innings. He was added to the NL All-Star roster Wednesday in place of St. Louis righthander Miles Mikolas, who is scheduled to start Sunday.

All- Star closer Kenley Jansen pitched the ninth for his 26th save.

San Diego’s Wil Myers hit a two- run double off Scott Alexander with two outs in the seventh.

Twins 5, Rays 1

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Kyle Gibson struck out nine batters over eight easy innings for the Minnesota Twins, who handed Tampa Bay ace Blake Snell his shortest start of the season after a twohour rain delay.

Eddie Rosario hit a two- run homer for the Twins. Gibson (4-6) gave up one run and five hits without a walk to earn consecutive wins for the first time this year.

Fernando Rodney got two outs for his 21st save, preserving the seventh victory in eight games for the Twins. The Rays had their five-game winning streak stopped.

Snell ( 12- 5) was pulled after just three innings, throwing only 43 of his 75 pitches for strikes. The lefty took the second-lowest ERA in the American League into the game, with just two runs allowed over his last 28 2/ 3 innings while winning each of his last four turns.

A’s 6, Astros 4

HOUSTON ( AP) — Mark Canha hit a tworun single in a three-run eighth inning as surging Oakland defeated Houston.

Nick Martini had three hits and two RBIs for the Athletics, who improved to 19- 5 in their last 24 games. They took three of four from the AL Westleading Astros.

Yusmeiro Petit ( 3- 2) allowed one hit in 2 1/ 3 scoreless innings, and Lou Trivino worked the ninth for his fourth save.

Tony Kemp hit a tworun homer for Houston, and Alex Bregman also drove in two runs. Chris Devenski ( 2- 2) got the loss.

Rockies 5, D-Backs 1

DENVER (AP) — Gerardo Parra and Raimel Tapia had pinch- hit RBI singles in Colorado’s three-run sixth inning.

Trevor Story homered for the Rockies, and Kyle Freeland pitched six- hit ball into the sixth inning. Scott Oberg (3-0) got two outs for the win.

Colorado was coming off a 19-2 victory Wednesday night, but it trailed 1- 0 before its rally in the sixth.

Arizona left- hander Robbie Ray (3-2) hit Carlos

Gonzalez and walked Chris Iannetta with one out before he was replaced by Silvino Bracho, who was called up before the game. Parra then hit a tying single to right, and Tapia followed with another single off Andrew Chafin.

Nationals 5, Mets 4

NEW YORK ( AP) — Max Scherzer made a final pitch to start the All-Star Game on his own mound, Anthony Rendon hit two homers and Bryce Harper also connected, leading Washington over New York.

Washington won for just the sixth time in 17 games and nudged back over .500 at 47-46.

Scherzer ( 12- 5) didn’ t dominate over his seven innings, but managed to tie Philadelphia’s Aaron Nola for the NL lead in wins. He struck out five, boosting his league-leading total to 182. Ryan Madson closed for his fourth save.

Rendon hit a two- run homer off Steven Matz (4- 7) in the first and added a solo drive in the third. His fourth career multihomer performance gave him six homers in 13 games.

Pirates 6, Brewers 3

PITTSBURGH ( AP) — Jameson Taillon had a career-high 10 strikeouts, Jordy Mercer tied his career best with four RBIs and Pittsburgh defeated Milwaukee.

Taillon ( 6- 7) surrendered one run on four hits with two walks. The right- hander struck out the side twice, once in the third inning and again in the fifth.

The Pirates have won four of their past five games to pull to 10 1/ 2 games back of the firstplace Brewers, who have lost four of six, in the NL Central. Felipe Vazquez earned his 21st save by getting the final two outs.
