Athletics rock Astros to tie for division lead.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Trevor Cahill pitched one-hit ball for seven shutout innings and the Oakland Athletics, far behind in the AL West standings earlier this summer, tied Houston for the division lead by beating the Astros 7-1 Saturday.

Khris Davis, Matt Olson, Josh Phegley and Stephen Piscotty each hit two of Oakland's team record-tying doubles as the A's won for the sixth time in seven games. The Athletics trailed the defending World Series champion Astros by 11 ½ games on June 24 and were still 10 out on July 10.

Houston has lost seven of eight and dropped 12 of 19 since owning a sixgame lead on July 24. The next day, reigning AL MVP Jose Altuve went on the disabled list, and the star second baseman is still out.

Cahill (5-2) allowed only an infield single by Yuli Gurriel in the second inning. The right-hander struck out seven, walked one and retired 14 straight batters during one stretch.

Cahill improved to 4-0 over his last six starts, his longest winning streak in five years. He also has won 10 decisions in a row at the Coliseum.

Tony Kemp homered in the ninth for Houston's only other hit.

Phegley had three RBIs and Davis drove in two

Dallas Keuchel (9-10) gave up five runs on nine hits in 5 2/3 innings. It's the most runs he's allowed since giving up six against Toronto on June 27, a span of nine starts.

The A's matched their best record after 123 games since 1992 and are 25 games over .500 for the first time since Aug. 14, 2014. They're now 15-1-2 over their previous 18 series dating to June 15.

Houston's Alex Bregman walked to lead off the seventh inning, extending his on-base streak to 38 consecutive road games, the longest such active streak in the majors.

Oakland's Matt Chapman went 0 for 4, ending his 14-game hitting streak and 30-game on-base streak.

YANKEES 11, BLUE JAYS 6.

NEW YORK (AP) — Another day, another big swing for Giancarlo Stanton. The slugger just loves this time of year. Stanton hit one of New York's four homers, Luis Severino struck out eight while pitching into the sixth inning and the Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays 11-6 on Saturday.

Didi Gregorius, Miguel Andujar and Greg Bird also connected as New York moved 31 games over .500, matching a season high. Andujar had three hits and three RBIs and Gregorius also drove in three runs.

"We've just been a tough out," Stanton said. "One through nine has just been grinding the pitcher down and getting into good counts and doing damage."

Stanton belted a long drive for the second straight day, this time a 412-foot solo shot with two out in the fourth for his 32nd homer of the season.

The 28-year-old Stanton got off to a slow start in his first year with New York after he was acquired in an offseason trade with Miami. He hit just .198 with four homers and 12 RBIs in his first 20 games.

But those days seem like a long time ago now. He has seven homers in his last 12 games and is batting .323 (23 for 71) in August. He hit .349 with 18 homers for last August with the Marlins.

"I knew I had a big hole to dig out of," Stanton said. "But I don't ever doubt my craft or my work. Sometimes in this game, (it) takes longer than you expect or want."

Stanton has helped carry the load for New York while Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez have been sidelined with injuries. Stanton himself has been limited to designated-hitter duties because of a sore left hamstring, but he is hoping to return to the field during an interleague series at Miami on Tuesday and Wednesday.

"He's an elite-level slugger," manager Aaron Boone said. "He's a big reason why we've been able to continue to win games."

Toronto has lost three straight and four of six. Billy McKinney, who came over when the Blue Jays traded J.A. Happ to the Yankees last month, had two hits and two RBIs against his former team, but Sean Reid-Foley (0-2) was hit hard in his second major league start.

"There's a ton of talent," Toronto manager John Gibbons said of his young players. "They're just trying to harness it (and) put the whole game together."

The Yankees scored in each of the first five innings. Gregorius hit a tworun shot in the first for his 22nd homer. Andujar added a two-run double in New York's three-run third, and then hit a solo drive in the fifth for his 20th homer.

Reid-Foley was charged with eight runs, six earned, and seven hits in 4 1/3 innings. He struck out six and walked three.

Severino (16-6) won for just the second time in his last seven starts. The AllStar right-hander allowed two runs and six hits in five-plus innings, moving into a tie with Washington's Max Scherzer for the major league lead in wins.

Toronto took advantage of a pair of errors to score five times in the sixth. McKinney had a bases-clearing single, but was thrown out trying to reach third after right fielder Neil Walker mishandled the ball.

Bird homered in the eighth as the Yanks scored three times off two relievers to create a little breathing room. Nine different Yankees have at least 10 homers.

ORIOLES 4, INDIANS 2.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Alex Cobb pitched a five-hitter for his first complete game in five years, and the Baltimore Orioles snapped Cleveland's six-game win streak with a 4-2 victory over the Indians on Saturday.

Cobb (4-15), the major league leader in losses, struck out three and walked one in his fourth career complete game. The right-hander threw 100 pitches, 69 for strikes, while going the distance for the first time since Aug. 31, 2013, for Tampa Bay against Oakland.

Cobb retired his first nine batters. He made his biggest pitch of the game when Melky Cabrera bounced into an inning-ending double play with the tying run on third in the seventh.

Jonathan Villar hit a three-run homer in the third for Baltimore. Rookie Cedric Mullins hit his first major league home run in the eighth.

Francisco Lindor's RBI single and Michael Brantley's sacrifice fly cut the Orioles' lead to 3-2 in the sixth.

Cleveland right-hander Adam Plutko (4-3) allowed three hits in seven innings. He was called up from Triple-A Columbus to step into the rotation for Trevor Bauer, who is out with a stress fracture in his right leg.

The Orioles jumped in front in the third, taking advantage of a mistake by the Indians. With one out and a runner on first, Mullins pushed a bunt past the mound that was fielded by first baseman Yonder Alonso. He turned to make the throw to first, but no one covered the bag. Mullins beat Jason Kipnis, running from second base, to the bag for the infield hit.

Villar then drove a 3-2 pitch over the wall in right for his third homer since coming over in the July 31 trade that sent infielder Jonathan Schoop to Milwaukee.

Lindor opened the fourth with an infield hit for Cleveland's first baserunner, but Jose Ramirez bounced into a double play.

Ramirez drew a leadoff in the seventh and took third on Yonder Alonso's oneout single. Cabrera, swinging at the first pitch, then hit a slow roller to the right side that was turned into a quick double play, prompting Cobb to pump his fist as he headed to the dugout.

The Indians retired Hall of Famer Jim Thome's No. 25 before the game, drawing a crowd of 35,003 for Cleveland's eighth sellout of the season.

METS 3, PHILLIES 1.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jacob deGrom pitched his first complete game of the season and lowered his major league-leading ERA to 1.71, weathering a rain delay and leading the New York Mets over the Philadelphia Phillies 3-1 Saturday.

DeGrom (8-7) kept boosting his NL Cy Young Award credentials and allowed only an unearned run, the result of his own error. He walked none, struck out nine and threw his hardest pitch, a 99 mph fastball, on the next-to-last of his 108 pitches.

DeGrom has thrown three complete games in 132 starts in the majors. He tossed a one-hitter at Citizens Bank Park on July 17, 2016, in a 5-0 win over the Phillies.

It appeared that deGrom's day might be cut short due to a 41-minute rain delay that began in the middle of the fourth. But the Mets right-hander came back after the stoppage as strong as before it.

DeGrom was so eager to resume that he walked toward the Philadelphia dugout to get a ball to warm up. He began to get loose on the mound before the umpires returned and prior to the Phillies' grounds crew raking the field. He was forced to wait several minutes before throwing his final warmup toss as the field was being groomed.
