Aaron Judge took sole possession of fourth place on the New York Yankees' all-time home run list and Luis Gil pitched six no-hit innings in a 4-1 win over the host Boston Red Sox on Friday.

Judge crushed his 362nd career homer 468 feet out to deep center with one out in the top of the first, giving the Yankees a lead that they would never relinquish. He passed Joe DiMaggio and trails only Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle and Lou Gehrig on the franchise list.

Nate Eaton lined a two-out solo shot -- his first of the season -- to left in the seventh for the first of just two hits for the Red Sox.

New York remains three games back of the American League East-leading Toronto Blue Jays and leads Boston by 1 1/2 games for the top AL wild-card spot.

Giants 5, Dodgers 1 (10 innings)

Patrick Bailey hit a game-ending grand slam in the bottom of the 10th inning and San Francisco beat visiting Los Angeles to move within a half-game of a National League wild-card spot.

Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto gave up one run on one hit over seven innings with 10 strikeouts. Blake Treinen (1-4) took the loss when Tanner Scott served up Bailey's homer. Michael Conforto homered for Los Angeles.

Rangers 8, Mets 3

Jacob deGrom tossed seven strong innings in his first matchup with his former team and benefited from some early run support as visiting Texas beat free-falling New York.

The Rangers, who scored six runs with two outs in the first, have won five straight to stay two games back of Houston and Seattle in the American League West. deGrom (12-7) allowed three runs on four hits.

Texas' Dylan Moore and New York's Francisco Alvarez homered. Mets starter Jonah Tong (1-2) yielded six runs and got just two outs.

Brewers 8, Cardinals 2

Christian Yelich hit a two-run homer and Quinn Priester pitched 5 1/3 effective innings as Milwaukee snapped a three-game losing streak with a victory over visiting St. Louis.

Rockies 4, Padres 2

Blaine Crim belted a three-run homer for his first major league hit and Tanner Gordon pitched into the seventh inning as visiting Colorado played the spoiler's role with a win over San Diego.

Gordon (6-6), who was rocked for six runs on Sunday in an 8-1 loss to San Diego, mowed down 16 straight batters after allowing Manny Machado's 24th homer of the year in the bottom of the first. He had nine strikeouts.

San Diego starter JP Sears (8-11) yielded four runs in 4 1/3 innings. The loss kept the Padres 2 1/2 games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers for first place in the National League West.

Chicago's only hits off Bibee were third-inning singles by rookies Chase Meidroth and Will Robertson.

Phillies 8, Royals 2

Walker Buehler allowed one run in five innings in his debut for Philadelphia, which stayed hot with a victory over visiting Kansas City.

Marlins 8, Tigers 2

Sandy Alcantara pitched seven strong innings to lead host Miami to a win over Detroit, which saw ace left-hander Tarik Skubal exit early due to tightness in his left side.

The reigning American League Cy Young Award winner, Skubal (13-5) lasted just 3 1/3 innings -- his shortest start since September 2021. He exited after manager A.J. Hinch and a trainer went to the mound to examine the lefty. Skubal will undergo testing to determine the extent of the injury.
