Davis forced extra innings by homering off Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman one pitch after pinch-runner Billy Hamilton was thrown out trying to steal third base.

BLUE JAYS 6, RED SOX 2: Teoscar Hernandez hit a go-ahead, three-run homer in the 10th inning after breaking up Boston’s no-hit bid with a leadoff single in the seventh, and Toronto rallied past the host Red Sox.

WHITE SOX 11, ROYALS 6: Luis Robert’s 458-foot home run capped a second five-run inning of the night for Chicago as the White Sox won at Kansas City.

DODGERS 5, DIAMONDBAC­KS 1: Clayton Kershaw allowed one hit over six scoreless innings, and Los Angeles completed a three-game sweep of visiting Arizona.
