Isaac Collins hit a solo homer off Mets closer Edwin Diaz in the ninth inning and the MLB-best Milwaukee Brewers extended their winning streak to nine games with a 7-6, walk-off win over New York. The Brewers trailed 5-0 early and tied it a 6-all in the eighth on Joey Ortiz’s two-out RBI single off the glove of diving first baseman Pete Alonso. After Nick Mears (3-3) tossed a scoreless top half of the ninth, Collins sent a 2-2 pitch from Diaz (5-2) 363 feet to right field for his eighth homer. The Mets lost their seventh straight game and fell 5 1/2 games behind NL East-leading Philadelphia.

Wheeler struck out seven and allowed three hits, Edmundo Sosa homered, and the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Texas Rangers 4-2 on Sunday to sweep the three-game series. Wheeler (10-5) had six or more strikeouts for the 19th straight start this season, with his last outing with less than six coming on April 13 when he had three against St. Louis. Trailing 2-0 early, the Phillies answered in the fourth with an RBI double from Bryce Harper. They tied it in the fifth on Sosa’s solo homer, and took the lead for good with Weston Wilson’s RBI single two batters later.
Final Houston 7 N.Y. Yankees 1
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected for the fifth time this season in the third inning Sunday in the Yankees 7-1 loss to the Houston Astros. Boone thought Jason Alexander’s sinker to Ryan McMahon was a low called strike. He argued with plate umpire Derek Thomas. Boone was ejected six times last season and 44 times since becoming manager in 2018.
The New York Yankees put Amed Rosario on the 10-day injured list with a left SC joint sprain in his shoulder Sunday, two days after he crashed into a right field fence and the veteran is optimistic it will not be a lengthy absence. The Yankees recalled catcher J.C. Escarra from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre to replace Rosario. Rosario sustained the injury in the 10th inning of Friday’s 5-3 loss to the Astros. He was attempting to make a leaping catch in front of the chain link portion of the fence on a ball hit by Yainer Diaz.
Final San Diego 6 Boston 2
Dylan Cease was impressive for six innings before San Diego’s All-Star-laden bullpen got into and out of trouble in the seventh and the Padres beat the Boston Red Sox 6-2 to take two of three.

Justin Verlander added another memorable chapter to his legendary pitching career Sunday, yet was hardly in the mood to celebrate. Verlander struck out the side in the first inning against the Nationals to become the 10th pitcher in MLB history to reach 3,500 career strikeouts. Not long after, things began to unravel for the three-time Cy Young Award winner as the Giants dropped an 8-0 decision to Washington in front of 40,000 fans at Oracle Park. Washington scored four times in the second inning and five overall on 11 hits against Verlander in the latest outing in what has been a season-long struggle for the 42-year-old.
Jen Pawol breezed through Sunday’s Marlins-Braves game as if breaking a gender barrier was just another day on the job. Considering Pawol became the first female umpire to work behind the plate in the majors, finding a way to make history appear to be routine was especially impressive. It was an impressive cap to a memorable weekend for Pawol. She made history in Saturday’s doubleheader as the first female umpire to work a regular-season game in the majors. She moved behind the plate for the Braves' 7-1 win on Sunday, placing her in the brightest spotlight for an umpire.

Final Las Vegas 94 Connecticut 86
A’ja Wilson scored 32 points and tied a career-high with 20 rebounds to become the first player in WNBA history with 30-plus points and at least 20 rebounds in a game as the Las Vegas Aces beat the Connecticut Sun 94-86 on Sunday night. Wilson grabbed almost as many boards as Connecticut had as a team (23) as Las Vegas (18-14) won its season-best fourth straight.
There was only one way Las Vegas Aces coach Becky Hammon could describe reigning WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson becoming the first player in league history to register a 30-20 double-double. The coach said it was just "A’ja being A’ja.” Wilson finished with 32 points on 13-of-25 shooting to go along with her second-career 20-rebound night. It was her 14th double-double of the season. She led the Aces to a 94-86 victory over the Connecticut Sun on Sunday night. Wilson said it's shocking to think she's the first with a 30-20 game given all the great players in the league.

The Trackhouse Racing driver joined 2020 champion Chase Elliott and NASCAR Hall of Famer Jeff Gordon as the only drivers to win four consecutive Cup races on road or street courses. The Auckland, New Zealand, native cruised to a big lead Sunday and led the final 17 laps, beating Christopher Bell by 11.116 seconds.
Sporting a smile with his left elbow in a black sling draped around his neck, Connor Zilisch was back at Watkins Glen International and recounting his scary fall in victory lane a day earlier. Zilisch took a nasty tumble while attempting a celebratory perch on his No. 88 Chevrolet after winning Saturday’s Xfinity race at the road course. The 19-year-old Zilisch was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with a broken collarbone.
