Yuli Gurriel homered and tied a career high with four hits while driving in four runs to lead the Houston Astros to a 10-4 win over the visiting Toronto Blue Jays. Bo Bichette put the Blue Jays up early with a solo homer to left field with one out in the first. And Teoscar Hernandez hit his third homer this season, a two-run shot that cut the lead to 10-4 in the ninth.
Wade Miley pitched baseball’s second no-hitter in three days _ and fourth already this season _ leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 3-0 win over Cleveland. Cleveland was no-hit for the second time in a month. Miley relied on breaking pitches and his experience of 11-plus major league seasons to baffle Cleveland and throw Cincinnati’s first no-hitter since Homer Bailey in 2013.
Washington burst ahead in a six-run eighth inning that included three errors and Josh Harrison’s three-run homer, and the Nationals beat the New York Yankees 11-4 to stop a three-game skid. The Yankees lost their second straight following a five-game winning streak and dropped back to .500 at 16-and-16.
Jonathan Marchessault scored with 17 seconds left in overtime to lift the Vegas Golden Knights to a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues. Vegas won after trailing by two goals for the sixth time this season. The single point combined with the L-A Kings’ loss means St. Louis has clinched a playoff spot.
Zach LaVine and Coby White each scored 25 points and the Chicago Bulls overcame a big effort by Kemba Walker to beat the Boston Celtics 121-99. With their playoff hopes fading and fans at the United Center for the first time this season, the Bulls had their way with the Celtics. Walker scored a season-high 33 and made six three-pointers.
Washington Wizards point guard Russell Westbrook’s next triple-double will be the 181st of his career. That will tie the N-B-A record set by Oscar Robertson in the 1960s and 1970s. Westbrook is averaging a triple-double for the fourth time. His is putting up 21-point-8 points, 11-point-4 rebounds and 11-point-4 assists per game. Westbrook and the Wizards face the Indiana Pacers today.
