With the score 5-5, the little-used Harris opened the seventh with a double, and eventually scored from third via a wild pitch by John Schreiber (0-2).

France went 3-for-3, scoring three runs and finishing a triple shy of the cycle. Laureano and Manny Machado drove in two runs apiece, as San Diego extended its winning streak to five games, outscoring the Rockies 28-12 in the series. David Morgan (2-0) was awarded his second win of the series after throwing 1 2/3 hitless innings.

The Padres got some bad news in the fourth inning when Nick Pivetta, who retired the first nine men he faced, exited in the top of the fourth due to right elbow stiffness. Colorado's scheduled starter, Kyle Freeland, didn't even make it to the post. He was scratched during warmups with what the Rockies termed left posterior shoulder soreness.

Mariners 6, Astros 1

Logan Gilbert pitched seven strong innings for his first victory of the season as Seattle defeated visiting Houston.

Randy Arozarena and Luke Raley, the Nos. 5-6 batters in Seattle's lineup, both had three hits. Raley had two doubles and two RBIs. Yainer Diaz hit a solo homer for the Astros' lone run.
