BOSTON — Christian Vazquez hit a three-run homer with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning and Boston pulled off the final rally of a wild game, despite an astonishing catch by Cleveland center fielder Austin Jackson.

MIAMI — Max Scherzer hit his first career homer to help build a six-run lead, but he pitched only one inning before departing with a neck spasm, and Miami rallied to beat Washington. Scherzer had slept funny and left the game as a precaution, the Nationals said.

Rockies 5, Mets 4

DENVER — Nolan Arenado hit a three-run homer in the sixth inning and a game-winning single in the bottom of the ninth to lift Colorado. Charlie Blackmon crashed into the center-field fence for an outstanding catch that ended the top of the ninth. In the bottom half, the Rockies took advantage of a misplay by new Mets shortstop Amed Rosario, a touted prospect making his major league debut.
