Chicago — Former Dartmouth college pitcher Kyle Hendricks pitched a seven-hitter for his second career shutout, providing the Chicago Cubs’ bullpen a needed breather in a 5-0 victory over the Miami Marlins on Monday night.

After a wild, 12-inning win a night earlier in which manager Joe Maddon used 22 players, Hendricks (10-7) threw 123 pitches and lowered his ERA to 2.22, third-best in the majors. He allowed three walks and struck out five.

Anthony Rizzo finished a home run shy of the cycle and reached base five times and Addison Russell had a two-run single in the first off wild Marlins starter Adam Conley (7-6).

Yankees 6, Mets 5 (10)

New York — Starlin Castro hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning and the Yankees hardly resembled a team resigned to fading away after selling off their stars at the trade deadline.

Didi Gregorius hit a tying single with two outs in the eighth and new closer Dellin Betances worked out of a major jam for his first save this season. Hours after trading slugger Carlos Beltran and pitcher Ivan Nova before the non-waiver deadline, the Yankees snapped a four-game slide and won for the seventh time in the past nine meetings with their crosstown rivals.

Royals 3, Rays 0

St. Petersburg, Fla. — Danny Duffy pitched eight innings of one-hit ball and had a franchise-record 16 strikeouts to lead Kansas City over Tampa Bay.

Duffy (7-1) flirted with the Royals’ first no-hitter in nearly 25 years before giving up a line-drive double to Desmond Jennings leading off the Tampa Bay eighth.

Jennings came off the disabled list Monday after missing all of July with a strained hamstring.

Twins 12, Indians 5

Cleveland — Rookie Max Kepler had three two-run homers and six RBIs, leading Minnesota over Cleveland. The German-born Kepler homered off All-Star Danny Salazar in the first and third innings and hit another off Cody Anderson in the sixth. Kepler became the first Twin to homer three times in a game since Justin Morneau in 2007.

Notes Puig Likely Demoted

Los Angeles — Yasiel Puig expects to be sent to the minors today after the Los Angeles Dodgers were unable to trade him at the deadline, according to his agent.

Adam Katz said he was told Puig didn’t show up to Dodger Stadium on Monday before the club departed on its road trip to Colorado. Katz said the Cuban slugger wasn’t there because the Dodgers didn’t expect him to be on their big-league roster for today’s game.

Los Angeles acquired Josh Reddick from Oakland on Monday, possibly squeezing the oft-injured, struggling Puig out of a job in right field.
