Jon's Indians 10 Degaglia's Yankees 4Jon got 5 no hit inning from Walker Buehler and the game was close until the Indians were able to blow it open in the top of the 9th inning thanks to Turner's second homer of the game and Donaldson's 3 run shot. Carlos Carrasco almost got out of the 6thinning but gave up a bases clearing double to Javier Baez. Chris's Twins 13 Tom's Blue Jays 5Chris's offense broke out in a big way with a couple of big innings to get the victory. Chris got a huge game from Juan Soto who was in the middle of each big inning. Dinelson Lamet got into trouble early and got a quick hook but John Means came in and shut it down to earn the victory. Bharath's Angels 5 Josh's White Sox 1The Angels got deGrom the lead early thanks to a Nelson Cruz 2 run homer in the first inning and deGrom took it from there. deGrom pitched 8 innings of 1 run ball and worked out of bases loaded 1 out situations twice to hold the lead for his squad. Justin's Mariners 3 Daren's Astros 2 F/13This would have been the game of the day if it weren't for the next matchup. National teammates squared off and didn't disappoint. Scherzer and Strasburg each pitched 7 innings and Scherzer had a 2-0 lead but in the bottom of the 8th inning Joey Votto hit a 2 run double to tie the game. The bullpens took over from there and shut it down but in the bottom of the 13th, Mark Canha hit a walk off homer off of Blake Snell to give Justin the victory. Eddy's Royals 11 Billy's Orioles 10 F/13This was easily the game of the day. This contest was back and forth. It seemed like every time Eddy got a lead Billy had an answer. The Royals were up by 4 going into the bottom of the 9th inning when Anthony Rizzo came up with the bases loaded and 2 outs. Rizzo hit a grand slam to send the game into extras. In the top of the 13th inning, Freddie Freeman hit a solo shot and Billy didn't have an answer to give Eddy the victory. Standings
