• Yankees 8 Cleveland 2: Phil Hughes started the game by striking out the first five batters he faced as he turned in another dominant performance to earn his sixth win. Hughes went seven innings and allowed two runs while striking out eight. The Yankees’ bats came alive, pounding out 12 hits and two home runs. Nick Swisher got things going early with a two-run shot to get the Yankees on the board and Robinson Cano put the game out of reach with a grand slam in the seventh.
  • Milwaukee 2 Mets 0: Once again the Mets had dominant pitching as they extended their scoreless innings streak to 35-2/3’s. Unfortunately, it was just before the final out of the game that things went wrong. Corey Hart hit a walkoff, two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth off of Ryota Igarashi to end the scoreless streak and the Mets’ winning streak. The Mets blew a golden chance in the third when they loaded the bases with no outs, but they couldn’t get a run across.
