Daily Brief

The three division leaders in tight races all lost ground Thursday, with the Rays, White Sox, and Brewers each dropping games as multiple pursuers won. The Dodgers authored the day's most dramatic finish, rallying from a 12% win probability to beat the Cardinals 3-2.

  • The Dodgers' comeback win over St. Louis produced the day's largest WPA swing, with Tommy Edman [4-5 | RC 32] leading the offense. (LAD)
  • The Cubs edged the Brewers 2-1 behind Kevin Gausman [7 IP, 1 ER, 9 K | 4.39 ERA, PAR 36]'s dominant start, gaining a game in the NL Central. (CHC)
  • The Red Sox beat the Orioles 6-5 as Adley Rutschman [2-4, 2 HR | RC 41] homered twice, cutting into Tampa Bay's AL East lead alongside Toronto's 6-3 win over Cleveland. (BOS)
  • The Royals routed the Marlins 7-3 behind Carter Jensen [3-4, 1 HR | RC 64], and the Tigers and Twins also gained ground on the White Sox in the AL Central. (KC)
  • The Rangers shut out the Rays 6-0 as Cal Quantrill [7 IP, 0 ER, 5 K | 2.81 ERA, PAR 28] tossed seven scoreless, gaining a game in the AL wild card race. (TEX)
  • The Athletics beat the Mariners 7-4, with Donovan Walton [1-1, 1 BB, 1 HR | RC 29] homering, gaining a game in the AL wild card race. (ATH)
  • The Pirates topped the Giants 5-2, and the Astros beat the White Sox 6-2 behind Hunter Brown [6 IP, 2 ER, 7 K | 3.31 ERA, PAR 22]. (HOU)
