Masahiro Tanaka (5-2) beat the Twins for the second time in seven days, allowing three runs and seven hits in six innings.
New York’s “No Runs DMC” relief trio improved to 11-0 when all appearing together, with Chapman striking out three batters on 11 strikes — for his 14th save in 15 chances. His first 10 pitches were all 100 mph or more on the scoreboard before freezing Kurt Suzuki with a changeup for a called third strike.
Making his first big league start since April 25, Tommy Milone (0-2) allowed four runs — three earned — six hits and two walks in 3 2/3 innings.

BALTIMORE — Adam Jones homered to start a four-run sixth inning, and Baltimore handed Tampa Bay its eighth straight loss.
Manny Machado marked his return from a four-game suspension by hitting his 18th home run in the eighth for the Orioles. Machado received the suspension for charging Royals pitcher Yordano Ventura on June 7.
After falling into an early 3-0 hole, the Orioles finally got their first baserunner against Matt Moore (3-5) in the fifth inning and turned the game around in the sixth.

PIRATES 8, DODGERS 6
PITTSBURGH — Matt Joyce homered and doubled among his three hits as Pittsburgh snapped Los Angeles’ six-game winning streak and gave Pirates manager Clint Hurdle his 1,000th career victory.

MIAMI — Rookie Willson Contreras homered and drove in three runs to help Chicago snap its season-high four-game losing streak.
Contreras hit a two-run homer in the Cubs’ four-run first inning. His RBI single in the seventh put the team with the best record in the majors ahead to stay. He’s batting .412 with eight RBIs after seven games in the big leagues.
While Contreras again excelled as a reinforcement for the injury-hampered NL Central leaders, they endured another setback when second baseman Ben Zobrist left the game after he was hit by a pitch on the left ankle.
Four pitchers held the Marlins to two hits, including Justin Bour’s grand slam.
