CHICAGO — Brian Goodwin led off the 10th inning with a two-run homer and the Chicago White Sox regrouped to beat the Cubs 8-6 on Friday at Wrigley Field after Craig Kimbrel blew a three-run lead against his former team.
Goodwin, who came in to run for Eloy Jiménez in the sixth, broke a 4-all tie with his drive to left-center against Manuel Rodríguez (0-2). Gavin Sheets and Tim Anderson added RBI singles to make it 8-4.
The Cubs cut it to 8-6 in the bottom half on Frank Schwindel’s two-run drive against Garrett Crochet. But the left-hander retired the next three batters.
Liam Hendriks (6-2) got four outs in relief, striking out all four.
The AL Central leaders were sailing along with a 4-1 lead after Lance Lynn pitched into the seventh and Cesar Hernandez homered.
The game turned when Kimbrel came in to start the eighth. The right-hander was dealt to the South Side from the Cubs as part of a selloff that also saw Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo and Javier Báez get traded prior to the July 30 deadline. The eight-time All-Star gave up singles to Matt Duffy and Frank Schwindel before Andrew Romine tied it with a three-run shot to right.
YANKEES 3, MARINERS 2, 11 INNINGS
NEW YORK — Brett Gardner singled home the winning run with two outs in the 11th inning and surging New York staged two late comebacks before beating Seattle for its fourth straight victory.
Aaron Judge hit a tying sacrifice fly in the eighth and Giancarlo Stanton pulled the Yankees even again with a two-out single in the 10th. New York (60-49) has won seven of eight since the trade deadline to move a season-high 11 games over .500.
With one out in the 11th, the Mariners intentionally walked Rougned Odor for the second time in three innings to face light-hitting catcher Kyle Higashioka. Keynan Middleton (0-2) struck out Higashioka before Gardner lined a 2-2 fastball into center field to score Joey Gallo from second base.
It was the ninth career walk-off hit for Gardner, the longest-tenured Yankees player, and his first since July 2017.
Albert Abreu (1-0) pitched the 11th for his first major league win.
PHILLIES 4, METS 2
PHILADELPHIA — Bryce Harper homered, Kyle Gibson pitched six strong innings and drove in the go-ahead run against New York, and Philadelphia won its sixth straight game to take over first place in the NL East.
Didi Gregorius also went deep to help the Phillies extend the longest active winning streak in the majors and move four games above .500.
The Mets, who have lost seven of nine, fell out of first place for the first time since May 7. Jonathan Villar homered in the ninth for New York.
Gibson (8-3) allowed one run and four hits with three strikeouts and four walks. Ian Kennedy recovered from Villar’s leadoff homer in the ninth for his 17th save and first with the Phillies. Marcus Stroman (7-11) was the loser.
BREWERS 2, GIANTS 1, 10 INNINGS
MILWAUKEE — Rowdy Tellez singled home Avisaíl García in the 10th inning to lift Milwaukee past San Francisco.
Tellez led off by hitting a 1-2 pitch from Jarlin García (3-3) just inside the third-base line and into left field, giving Brewers manager Craig Counsell his 500th career victory.
It marked the second straight game in which Tellez delivered the big hit for the Brewers. He hit a three-run, pinch-hit homer to put Milwaukee ahead for good in a 4-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday.
Milwaukee’s Brent Suter (11-5) struck out two and retired the side in order in the top of the 10th to strand Alex Dickerson at second base.
The first meeting of the season between the division leaders was a pitching duel featuring Milwaukee’s Corbin Burnes and San Francisco’s Logan Webb. The only runs they allowed came on solo shots by the Brewers’ García and the Giants’ Brandon Belt.
ATHLETICS 4, RANGERS 1, 11 INNINGS
OAKLAND, Calif. — Starling Marte hit a three-run homer in the bottom of the 11th inning to lift Oakland over Texas.
Marte connected off Jimmy Herget (0-1) for Oakland’s fourth hit of the game. It was the A’s second straight walk-off win and their 10th overall, tying Colorado for most in the majors.
Yusmeiro Petit (8-1) retired three batters to earn the win.
Acquired from the Miami Marlins before the trade deadline, Marte also reached on a bunt single in the sixth. The A’s have won six of eight.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa had three hits for the Rangers. Texas has lost 12 straight on the road.
DIAMONDBACKS 8, PADRES 5
SAN DIEGO — Nick Ahmed’s two-run single capped a six-run fourth inning for the Arizona Diamondbacks, who rallied from a 5-0 deficit to stun San Diego.
Matt Peacock (5-6) hit a go-ahead, two-run single and pitched 4 2/3 innings of scoreless relief.
Trailing 5-2, the Diamondbacks sent 11 batters to the plate in the fourth against rookie Ryan Weathers (4-4) and reliever Craig Stammen. The first seven reached and the first six scored. By the time Stammen got the first out, Arizona — which has the worst record in the majors — had taken a three-run lead.
The Diamondbacks began their comeback in the third when Ahmed hit an RBI double and Ketel Marte followed with an RBI single.
