MILWAUKEE (AP) — Isaac Collins hit a solo homer off Mets closer Edwin Diaz in the ninth inning and the MLB-best Milwaukee Brewers extended their winning streak to nine games with a 7-6, walk-off win over New York. The Brewers trailed 5-0 early and tied it a 6-all in the eighth on Joey Ortiz’s two-out RBI single off the glove of diving first baseman Pete Alonso. After Nick Mears (3-3) tossed a scoreless top half of the ninth, Collins sent a 2-2 pitch from Diaz (5-2) 363 feet to right field for his eighth homer. The Mets lost their seventh straight game and fell 5 1/2 games behind NL East-leading Philadelphia.
Tonight the Brewers host the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pregame at 6:05pm. First pitch at 6:40pm on AM1240 & 96.5FM.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Luke Keaschall hit a two-run homer in the 11th inning, Ryan Fitzgerald homered for his first career hit, and the Minnesota Twins beat the Kansas City Royals 5-3. With two outs, Keaschall hit a fastball from Royals closer Carlos Estévez to the first row of seats in right-centerfield for Minnesota’s ninth walk-off win of the season. It was the third hit of the day for Keaschall, who has reached base in 12 straight games to start his career.

NEW YORK (AP) — Kayla McBride scored 18 points and DiJonai Carrington added 15 to help the Minnesota Lynx beat the New York Liberty 83-71. The teams will meet three times over the next nine days with New York having back-to-back games on the west coast before heading to Minnesota to play Saturday. The Lynx are off until that game. Both sides were short-handed with New York missing Breanna Stewart (knee) and Minnesota playing without Napheesa Collier (ankle). This was the first game between the teams at Barclays Center since New York won the decisive Game 5 of the WNBA Finals last fall.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Justin Rose produced a stunning rally with four straight birdies to make up a three-shot deficit with five holes to play.
