Astros 2, Mariners 1

SEATTLE — Jonathan Villar hit a tiebreaking single in the ninth inning to lift Collin McHugh and Houston over Seattle. Logan Morrison homered off McHugh in the eighth to tie it, but the Mariners fell a half-game out in the race for the second AL wild card. With two outs in the ninth, Yoervis Medina (4-3) walked Jon Singleton and he advanced to second on a wild pitch. Singleton moved to third on Matt Dominguez’s single to deep shortstop. Villar bounced a 1-1 fastball to the right of second baseman Robinson Cano, who made a dive for the ball as it skipped over his glove and rolled into right field.

Tigers 4, Royals 2

DETROIT — Max Scherzer escaped a bases-loaded jam in the fifth, Rajai Davis and J.D. Martinez homered, and Detroit beat Kansas City to pull within percentage points of the Royals atop the AL Central. Scherzer (16-5) allowed a run and seven hits in 6 2⁄3 innings. Kansas City was down 3-1 in the fifth when Alex Gordon’s deep fly to right went just foul with two on. Gordon walked to load the bases with one out, but Salvador Perez lined out and Eric Hosmer struck out.

Rays 4, Yankees 3

NEW YORK — Left fielder Matt Joyce threw out Stephen Drew in the fifth inning when catcher Ryan Hanigan blocked the sliding runner, and Tampa Bay held on to beat the fading New York Yankees. Hours after Major League Baseball gave teams and umpires new guidelines on what catchers can do under this year’s experimental rule designed to avoid collisions (Story, C4), the latest instructions were put to a test when Drew tried to score what would have been the tying run.

SAN FRANCISCO — Yusmeiro Petit pitched a four-hitter for his second career complete game, and San Francisco beat Arizona. Making his third start since replacing Tim Lincecum in the rotation, Petit (5-3) faced just two more than the minimum and matched his season high of nine strikeouts. The right-hander needed only 84 pitches to finish the gem, the fewest in a nine-inning complete game by any pitcher in the majors this season.

NEW YORK — Jacob deGrom burnished his rookie of the year credentials by pitching three-hit ball for eight dominant innings, and the New York Mets held on to beat Colorado for their sixth win in seven games. Jeurys Familia got Wilin Rosario to ground out with the bases loaded for his fifth save. Mets closer Jenrry Mejia gave up two hits and a walk and got only one out before manager Terry Collins brought on Josh Edgin. The left-hander struck out slugger Corey Dickerson.
