Trevor Plouffe hit a tying single with two outs in the ninth inning and visiting Minnesota took advantage of two errors in the 12th to beat Baltimore for a four-game sweep. Minnesota manager Paul Molitor was ejected in the ninth for arguing a strikeout by Miguel Sano, who tried to hold back his swing.

Mets 5, Rockies 1

Logan Verrett stepped into Matt Harvey’s spot and earned his first major league win in his first start, pitching eight impressive innings and leading visiting New York over Colorado in Denver. After the N.L. East-leading Mets posted a pair of 14-9 wins at Coors Field, Verrett allowed just one run and four hits while striking out eight. Verrett got the spot start when the Mets decided to push back Harvey’s outing. Michael Conforto had three hits for the Mets, who have won 11 straight against Colorado dating to 2014. New York held its five-game division lead over Washington.

Pirates 5, Giants 2

Andrew McCutchen hit his 19th homer and Pedro Alvarez made up for some shaky defense by adding his 20th of the season as Pittsburgh held off visiting San Francisco. Francisco Liriano gave up two unearned runs and struck out five in 5 1/3 eventful innings to win his fifth straight decision. The Pirates are 10-0 in Liriano’s last 10 starts dating back to June 26. Alvarez committed a pair of errors that led directly to both San Francisco runs but atoned with a solo shot in the seventh that gave Pittsburgh some breathing room. Mark Melancon worked a perfect ninth for his major league-leading 39th save.
