White Sox 2, Red Sox 1

CHICAGO — Alexei Ramirez scored the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning on a throwing error. Tied at one, Red Sox reliever Burke Badenhop allowed a one-out single to Ramirez. After Tyler Flowers struck out, Chris Capuano replaced Badenhop. Capuano walked Adam Eaton to move Ramirez to second. Then with a 3-2 count, Marcus Semien hit a grounder to Xander Bogaerts at shortstop, who one-hopped his throw to first baseman Mike Carp. Carp wasn’t able to scoop the throw and Ramirez, who was already running on the pitch, never stopped when rounding third and scored without a throw.

CINCINNATI — Andrew McCutchen doubled and came around on Russell Martin’s single in the seventh inning in the completion of a game that spanned two days and 10 home runs. The NL Central rivals put on a record-setting show Monday night before the game was suspended in a 7-all tie after six innings because of rain. They combined for 10 homers in those six innings, the most for a game in Great American Ball Park’s 12 seasons.

Marlins 11, Nationals 2

MIAMI — Giancarlo Stanton tied a career high with five RBIs, including a three-run homer off Stephen Strasburg, and the Miami Marlins broke an eight-game losing streak. Strasburg endured another rough outing in Miami, allowing six runs and eight hits in four innings. Both benches and bullpens cleared briefly in the fourth inning when the Nationals’ Ian Desmond and Marlins catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia engaged in a heated, nose-to-nose conversation at home plate.
