NEW YORK — Josh Donaldson hit a 10th-inning sacrifice fly, and the New York Yankees came from behind twice to beat the Detroit Tigers 5-4 on Sunday as they reached the one-third mark of the season at 39-15 – the best in the major leagues in 21 years.

Joey Gallo’s two-run homer in the fifth overcame an early deficit and the Yankees won for the 10th time in 12 games, completing a three-game sweep of the Tigers and extending their winning streak to six. Their record is the best after the season’s first 54 games since the 2001 Seattle Mariners were 42-12.

Anthony Rizzo tied the score 4-4 in the eighth after he was hit near the left knee by a bounced pitch, stole second and continued to third when second baseman Jonathan Schoop allowed the ball to bounce of his glove for an error. Rizzo slid home when third Harold Castro’s high throw on Gleyber Torres’ RBI grounder glanced off Eric Haase’s mitt for another error.

With Aaron Judge as the automatic runner in the 10th, Rizzo reached on an infield single off Gregory Soto (2-3) that Schoop knocked down on the right side of second. Donaldson followed with a drive to the left-field warning track for his 13th big league walkoff – his second this year and the Yankees’ sixth.

Michael King (3-1) struck out the side in the 10th.

Yankees starter Jordan Montgomery allowed two runs and five hits in 6 1/3 innings. New York ended a streak of five straight games allowing one run or fewer, its most since six in a row from Sept. 24-30, 1978.

GUARDIANS 3, ORIOLES 2: Andrés Giménez hit a three-run homer, Zach Plesac had eight strikeouts over six innings and Cleveland won in Baltimore to get its first series win at Camden Yards since 2018.

Giménez staked Cleveland to a 3-0 lead with a first-inning drive off lefty Dean Kremer (0-1) following a single and a walk. That proved to be enough of a cushion for Plesac and three relievers in a combined four-hitter.

The Guardians took two of three from the Orioles and have won five of six overall. Prior to this series, Cleveland had lost four of its last six games in Baltimore while being outscored 51-18.

TWINS 8, BLUE JAYS 6: Luis Arráez went 4 for 4 with a walk, Gary Sánchez and Trevor Larnach homered and Minnesota won in Toronto.

Arráez leads baseball with a .358 batting average.

Six players drove in a run as the Twins took two of three from the Blue Jays, cooling down a Toronto team that came into the series on an eight-game winning streak.

WHITE SOX 6, RAYS 5: Jake Burger had a key hit for the second consecutive day and Chicago hung on to a large early lead to beat Tampa Bay in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Burger, who had a go-ahead, two-run pinch-hit homer in the eighth inning of the White Sox’s 3-2 win on Saturday, hit a two-run double during Chicago’s four-run first off Ryan Yarbrough (0-2).

ASTROS 7, ROYALS 4: Yordan Álvarez hit his 16th home run and Framber Valdez won his fifth straight start for Houston in a win in Kansas City, Missouri.

Álvarez led off the eighth inning with a 456-foot shot to right. It was one of three hits for him, extending his hitting streak to seven games. He’s batting .556 (15 for 27) with six multi-hit games in the span.

Jose Altuve opened the scoring with a one-out double in the third before scoring on Mauricio Dubon’s sacrifice fly. The Astros extended their lead to 3-0 in the fourth on Álvarez’s leadoff triple. Álvarez then scored on a wild pitch before Kyle Tucker lined his ninth homer to straightaway center.

MARINERS 6, RANGERS 5: Abraham Toro scored on a wild pitch by Brock Burke in the 10th inning to complete Seattle’s late-game rally in Arlington, Texas.

Seattle scored three in the ninth off Matt Bush, who had his third blown save this season, to tie the score 5-5. Then Toro, an automatic runner, advanced to third base on a groundout by Dylan Moore and scored on ball four to Adam Frazier from Burke (3-1).

Diego Castillo (3-0) pitched a scoreless ninth inning for Seattle, and Paul Sewald pitched a scoreless 10th to earn his fourth save in six opportunities this season.

INTERLEAGUE

PHILLIES 9, ANGELS 7: Bryson Stott hit a game-winning, three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning after Bryce Harper tied it with a grand slam in the eighth, and Philadelphia rallied for a victory at home that sent slumping Mike Trout and Los Angeles to their 11th straight defeat.

It was the fourth victory in a row for the Phillies, who have won all three games under interim manager Rob Thomson since he took over when Joe Girardi was fired Friday. Philadelphia outscored the Angels 26-9 while sweeping the three-game series.

Trout went 0 for 3 and is hitless in his last 26 at-bats, the longest drought of his decorated career. The three-time MVP did walk and score a run for the Angels, whose last win came on May 24.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

METS 5, DODGERS 4: J.D. Davis led off the 10th inning with an RBI double after the Mets blew a two-run lead in the ninth, and New York hung on to salvage a four-game series split in Los Angeles.

Pete Alonso doubled home the tying run in the eighth and scored the go-ahead run on Eduardo Escobar’s sacrifice fly for the Mets, who have won eight of 11. Alonso then started the 10th on second base as the automatic runner and scored another go-ahead run on Davis’ hit off Craig Kimbrel (0-2).

Will Smith homered and Eddy Alvarez tied it with a two-out RBI single in the ninth for the Dodgers, who have lost five of seven. They fell to 31-2 this season when leading after seven innings.

GIANTS 5, MARLINS 1: Donovan Walton hit a grand slam, Jakob Junis pitched six innings of one-run ball and San Francisco won in Miami.

Curt Casali had two hits and scored twice for the Giants, who split the four-game series and finished 5-5 on their three-city road trip.

Junis (3-1) limited the Marlins to two hits, walked two and struck out a season-high eight. The right-hander has completed six innings in three of his last four starts.

NATIONALS 5, REDS 4: Patrick Corbin pitched six effective innings, Josh Bell had a two-run double and catcher Kelbert Ruiz picked Nick Senzel off first base to end the game as Washington beat the Reds in Cincinnati.

The Reds challenged the call, but video review confirmed the out.

Maikel Franco homered for the first time since May 14 and Washington capitalized on two fourth-inning Cincinnati errors.

PIRATES 3, DIAMONDBACKS 0: Jack Suwinski followed his game-winning homer a day earlier with three hits to help Pittsburgh win at home.

The rookie has at least one hit in his past five games and was 7 for 12 this series. Suwinski hit a two-run blast in the bottom of the ninth Saturday, giving the Pirates a 2-1 win, after going 3 for 4 on Friday.

PADRES 6, BREWERS 4: Jake Cronenworth hit a three-run home run in the 10th inning and San Diego extended its winning streak to three games with a win in Milwaukee.

Trevor Gott (1-1) pitched the 10th for Milwaukee because Josh Hader had worked the ninth after the Brewers tied the game at 3 on Kolten Wong’s second home run of the game in the eighth.

BRAVES 8, ROCKIES 7: Matt Olson hit a three-run homer, Ronald Acuña Jr. had a solo shot among his four hits and Atlanta moved above .500 for the first time since the season’s opening week by holding off Colorado in Denver.

Ozzie Albies added a two-run single and Adam Duvall doubled and tripled for the Braves (28-27), who completed a four-game sweep and won their season-high fifth straight. They last had a winning record when they were 2-1 on April 9.

CARDINALS 5, CUBS 3: Juan Yepez singled home automatic runner Nolan Gorman to lead off the 11th inning, Brendan Donovan doubled in an insurance run and St. Louis won at Chicago.

Yepez lined his tiebreaking hit and Donovan delivered off Daniel Norris (0-4), who had pitched a perfect 10th inning.

Genesis Cabrera (3-1) tossed four innings in relief of Adam Wainwright, including a perfect 11th, and allowed a run on two hits for the win.

NOTES

RANGERS: Willie Calhoun, Texas’ primary acquisition in the 2017 deadline trade that sent Yu Darvish to the Los Angeles Dodgers, was designated for assignment.

Calhoun, 27, had been optioned to Triple-A Round Rock early last month after hitting .136 in 18 games with one home run and two RBI, and then requested a trade. He hit .221 with four homers and 15 RBI with Round Rock.
