CINCINNATI — Blake Dunn hit a single in the 10th inning to drive in automatic runner Spencer Steer and give the Cincinnati Reds a 4-3 win over the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Steer homered twice and Will Benson hit a tying solo shot in the ninth for the Reds, who only had four hits in the game.<\/p>\n

The Royals led 3-2 when pinch-hitter Benson homered off Royals closer Lucas Erceg.<\/p>\n

The Royals had runners on first and third with one out in the 10th, but Jac Caglianone lined out to short and Brock Burke (2-2) struck out Kyle Isbel to end the threat.<\/p>\n

Royals left-hander Noah Cameron (Central Arkansas) allowed 1 hit — Steer’s solo home run in the fifth — and struck out 8 with no walks in 7 innings.<\/p>\n

Kansas City had lost eight of Cameron’s 10 starts this season but he was dominant on Tuesday, tying career highs for innings pitched and strikeouts.<\/p>\n

Cameron, who took a no-hitter into the seventh in his major league debut on April 30, 2025, retired the first 13 batters he faced on Tuesday with four strikeouts.<\/p>\n

With one out in the fifth, Steer hit a solo home run for the Reds’ first hit. Cameron struck out three batters in the fifth and retired seven straight following Steer’s homer.<\/p>\n

John Schreiber (0-3) took the loss.<\/p>\n

Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott allowed 3 earned runs on 5 hits in 6 innings.<\/p>\n

The Royals loaded the bases twice in the fourth. The first run scored from third on Caglianone’s groundout. Two more runs scored on Michael Massey’s two-out single.<\/p>\n

BRAVES 4, BLUE JAYS 3 Matt Olson hit a tiebreaking homer, Bryce Elder bounced back from his worst start of the season and host Atlanta defeated Toronto.

PHILLIES 3, PADRES 2 Bryce Harper hit his 377th career home run and Jhoan Duran struck out the side in a perfect ninth for his 13th save to lead host Philadelphia over San Diego.

MARLINS 7, NATIONALS 3 Joe Mack, Heriberto Hernandez and Otto Lopez hit successive home runs in the fifth inning to power visiting Miami Marlins past Washington. Mack’s two-run homer off Miles Mikolas (1-5) in the fifth opened the scoring.

BREWERS 8, GIANTS 3 Kyle Harrison matched his season high with 12 strikeouts, Jake Bauers hit a three-run homer and host Milwaukee Brewers beat San Francisco. Harrison (7-1) allowed one run over 5 2\/3 innings, improving to 6-0 in his last seven starts.

TIGERS 8, RAYS 0 Gleyber Torres hit a leadoff homer, Wenceel Perez and Riley Greene also went deep and visiting Detroit routed Tampa Bay. Jack Flaherty (1-7) struck out six in five-plus innings for his first win since last September. Matt Vierling tripled, doubled and drove in two runs.

TWINS 6, WHITE SOX 4 Luke Keaschall and Tristan Gray drove in two runs apiece in a bottom-of-the-order attack, and host Minnesota beat Chicago to deliver right-hander Davis Martin a rare loss.
