Reds starter Nick Lodolo leaves game against Cubs due to blister on index finger
CHICAGO (AP) — Cincinnati left-hander Nick Lodolo abruptly left Monday night's game against the Chicago Cubs with two outs in the bottom of the second inning with a blister on his left index finger. Lodolo retired the first five Cubs hitters. Then after throwing a strike on his first pitch to Justin Turner, Lodolo gestured toward his left hand. Manager Terry Francona jogged to the mound with a trainer for a brief discussion. Lodolo walked to the dugout and was replaced by Nick Martinez with the Reds ahead 1-0. Martinez got Turner to fly to right for the final out of the second. Lodolo entered at 8-6 with a 3.09 ERA. He had won three straight decisions with a 1.32 ERA in his previous four starts. ___ AP MLB: The Associated Press

Kyle Schwarber's 2-run shot, grand slam power Philadelphia Phillies to 13-3 rout of Baltimore Orioles
Kyle Schwarber homered twice, including a grand slam in Philadelphia's eight-run sixth inning, and the Philadelphia Phillies pounded the Baltimore Orioles, 13-3, on Monday night. Schwarber finished with six RBIs, running his major league-leading total to 94 on the season. Schwarber's first homer of the game was a two-run shot deep into the second deck that tied it at 3 in the third. He heard "MVP! MVP!" chants when he came to the plate in the sixth. Schwarber, the All-Star Game MVP, launched his NL-best 40th of the season into the right-center seats off Yaramil Hiraldo for a grand slam that sent the crowd of 41,099 into a frenzy. Harrison Bader homered for the first time since he was acquired by the Phillies at the trade deadline, a tiebreaking three-run shot earlier in the sixth. The Phillies added closer Jhoan Duran and Bader in trades on consecutive days with Minnesota. With his 102.5 mph fastball and electric entrance, Duran was an instant fan favorite in Philly. Bader made his case with a homer off Corbin Martin. Bryce Harper hit a solo shot for the contending Phillies, his 17th. Edmundo Sosa and Weston Wilson hit back-to-back homers in the eighth for a 13-3 lead. Phillies starter Jesús Luzardo (10-5) allowed a two-run homer to Tyler O'Neill and a solo shot to Jordan Westburg over six innings. Orioles starter Cade Povich (2-6) was pulled after 5 2/3 innings. Martin failed to get out of the jam and allowed a single and Bader's decisive homer. Schwarber has reached 40 homers in three of his four seasons with the Phillies. He hit 38 last season. The Orioles send RHP Dean Kremer (8-7, 4.27 ERA) to the mound on Tuesday night against Phillies RHP Taijuan Walker (3-5, 3.82 ERA).
