Raleigh's 39th home run leads mariners to snap brewers' 11-game win streak
Cal Raleigh hit his major league-leading 39th home run of the season, Logan Gilbert tossed 6 1/3 shutout innings, and the Seattle Mariners snapped the Milwaukee Brewers' 11-game winning streak 1-0 on Tuesday night. Raleigh, who hadn't homered since July 11 against the Detroit Tigers, received an elevated fastball from Brewers right-hander Nick Mears (1-3) and hit it well past the right field wall. The switch-hitting catcher, who won the All-Star Home Run Derby, provided all the offense on an evening headlined by the pitchers. Gilbert (3-3) carried a perfect game bid into the fifth inning and ended up yielding just two singles. The right-hander racked up 10 strikeouts against no walks while needing only 86 pitches to make it into the seventh inning, departing to a standing ovation. Brewers rookie sensation Jacob Misiorowski was similarly brilliant. The righty struck out seven batters across 3 2/3 innings, yielding three hits while walking one. It wasn't until Misiorowski departed that the Mariners finally pushed a run across and set up closer Andrés Muñoz for his 22nd save of the season. Key moment: Muñoz walked William Contreras and Jackson Chourio to put two runners aboard with one out in the ninth inning, but Muñoz struck out Isaac Collins and got Andrew Vaughn to ground out to end the threat. Key stat: The Brewers' 11-game win streak was two victories shy of the Minnesota Twins for the longest win streak in the majors this season. The Twins won 13 consecutive games from May 3 to 19. Up next: Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester (8-2, 3.33 ERA) will start the final game of the series for Milwaukee. Right-hander Luis Castillo (7-5, 3.21) gets the ball for Seattle.

Valdez stretches winning streak to 10, Astros rally to beat Diamondbacks 3-1
Framber Valdez pitched seven effective innings for his 10th straight win, Brice Matthews hit his third homer in two games, and the Houston Astros rallied to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-1 on Tuesday night. Valdez (11-4) allowed a run and seven hits to match Detroit's Tarik Skubal for the major's longest win streak this season. Matthews hit his first two big league homers in Houston's 6-3 win Monday night and launched a two-run shot off Jake Woodford (0-1) in the eighth. Jose Altuve scored on a wild pitch to put Houston up 3-1 in the ninth. Diamondbacks starter Eduardo Rodriguez held the Astros in check before that, tossing 6 1/3 scoreless innings. Arizona loaded the bases in the ninth, but Bryan King struck out Blaze Alexander and induced Jose Herrera into a game-ending double play for his first save. Valdez was sharp before running into trouble in the sixth. Randal Grichuk led off with a double, Geraldo Perdomo dropped a bunt single, and Blaze Alexander followed with a run-scoring groundout. Valdez also worked out of a jam after giving up two leadoff singles in the eighth. Rodriguez worked through traffic most of the night, getting some help from his defense. Corbin Carroll made a sliding catch in center to rob Matthews of a hit in the second inning. Matthews lost another hit in the fourth when Arizona second baseman Ketel Marte flipped a slow roller with his glove on a play initially ruled a hit before being overturned. Key moment: Houston third baseman Mauricio Dubón threw out pinch runner Alek Thomas at the plate in the eighth with the Diamondbacks leading 1-0. Key stat: Valdez has not lost since May 2 against the Chicago White Sox. Up next: Arizona RHP Brandon Pfaadt (10-6, 4.82) will pitch the series finale on Wednesday. The Astros have yet to name a starter.

Blalock (1-2) earned the win, giving up eight hits, a walk, and a hit-by-pitch. Mickey Moniak hit a solo shot off Cardinals starter Erick Fedde (3-10) in the first. Adael Amador hit a two-run double in the second, and McMahon's homer in the third gave the Rockies a 6-0 advantage. Ezequiel Tovar hit a two-out double and scored on Brenton Doyle's single in the fifth.

Fedde gave up six runs on seven hits in three innings pitched. Key moment: With one out and Scott on first base in the third, Donovan hit a fly ball to the warning track in right-center field. Doyle made a diving catch in the gap and then threw out Scott – who had already rounded second base on his way to third – at first for a double play to end the inning and preserve Colorado's 3-0 lead. Key stat: Eight Rockies batters combined to strike out 13 times. Up next: Andre Pallante (5-6, 4.71 ERA) is scheduled to pitch Wednesday for the Cardinals to wrap up a three-game series.
