Gabriel Moreno's 3-run homer leads the Diamondbacks in 10-3 win over the Mariners
PHOENIX (AP) — Gabriel Moreno hit a three-run homer, Corbin Carroll added a pair of triples and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Seattle Mariners 10-3 on Tuesday night. The D-backs have won the first two games of the series and will go for the sweep on Wednesday. Arizona scored five runs in the sixth inning off righty Trent Thornton to push their lead to 9-2. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. started the inning with a single, Pavin Smith walked and Moreno followed with a line drive shot into the left field seats for his fifth homer of the season. Alek Thomas reached base four times on a walk, two singles and a solo homer. He also had a stolen base and scored four times. Gurriel added a solo homer and Carroll took over the major league triples lead with eight. Brandon Pfaadt (8-4) threw five scoreless innings before giving up back-to-back homers to Randy Arozarena and Rowdy Tellez beginning the sixth, cutting the D-backs' advantage to 4-2. That ended Pfaadt's night. Seattle's Logan Evans (3-2) gave up four runs, seven hits and two walks over five innings. The right-hander struck out five. Tellez, Julio Rodriguez, Cole Young and Jorge Polanco all had two hits. Both teams had stellar defensive plays in the early innings. Arozarena, playing left field, threw out Perdomo at home in the first thanks to an excellent scoop on a tricky hop and then an accurate throw. Gurriel countered in third, robbing Cal Raleigh of an extra-base hit — and potentially a homer — when he made a leaping catch at the left field wall. Key moment The game was still tight in the sixth when Tayler Scott — making his D-backs debut — recorded three outs to stop Seattle's rally. Key stat Carroll has eight triples this season to lead the majors. He's the only player in D-backs history to have multiple games with two triples. Up next The D-backs send LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (1-3, 6.70 ERA) to the mound on Wednesday while the Mariners counter with RHP Bryan Woo (3-5, 3.07). ___ AP MLB:

Happ homers twice to send the Cubs to an 8-4 win and hand the Phillies their 10th loss in 12 games
Philadelphia Phillies reached out after young fan in Idaho goes viral on TikTok Philadelphia Phillies reached out after young fan in Idaho goes viral on TikTok Philadelphia Phillies reached out after young fan in Idaho goes viral on TikTok Ian Happ homered twice, including a two-run shot in the sixth inning that rallied the Chicago Cubs to an 8-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night. Dansby Swanson, Happ and Michael Busch each hit a solo shot off rookie Phillies starter Mick Abel. The 23-year-old Abel dazzled in his first two major league starts, with a 0.79 ERA and 11 strikeouts over 11 1/3 innings. He wasn't dominant in this one but kept the Phillies in the game. He had the bases loaded with two outs in the fourth but got Kyle Tucker to check-swing on his 89th pitch for strike three to end the threat. Abel has been a boost to a rotation that learned Aaron Nola wouldn't be able to throw the ball for at least two more weeks because of an injured rib. Nola had already been out since early May with a sprained right ankle. Max Kepler hit a two-run homer for Philadelphia in the second. The Phillies chased Colin Rea with one out in the fifth. Alec Bohm greeted Ryan Brasier with a two-run single to center for a 4-3 lead. Just as they surrendered a late lead a night earlier, the Phillies bullpen faltered once again. Happ's seventh homer off Taijuan Walker (2-5) — a two-out drive to right — put the Cubs ahead to stay. Walker was demoted to the bullpen after another tough start to the season. Caleb Thielbar (2-1) tossed a scoreless sixth for the win. The Cubs tacked on three runs in the eighth to send the Phillies to their 10th loss in 12 games. Key moment Phillies center fielder Brandon Marsh, who hit the winning single in the 11th inning on Monday, was hampered by left elbow soreness and left in the top of the sixth. He was hit on the elbow on a tag in the second inning. Key stat It was Happ's 16th career multihomer game. Up next The Cubs send RHP Ben Brown (3-4, 5.37 ERA) to the mound against Phillies LHP Jesús Luzardo (5-2, 4.46 ERA) on Wednesday.
