Giancarlo Stanton got on base 5 times, drove in 5 runs including a walk off bottom of the 9th grand slam, sealing the Marlins 8-4 win over the Mariners.
Howie Kendrick went 3-5 including a pair of homers and 4 RBI as the Angels topped the Tigers, 11-6.
Aaron Harang threw 7 no hit innings for the Braves. His wildness and high pitch count kept him from finishing the game (the Mets would eventually get a hit) but he got the 6-0 win.
Martin Perez threw a complete game 3 hit shutout, striking out 8 and walking just 1 as the Rangers slammed the White Sox, 12-0.

Russell Martin got on base 3 times and drove in 2 runs in a losing cause. The Pirates fell to the Brewers, 5-3.

Jacoby Ellsbury got a pair of hits, a stolen base and a run scored, helping the Yankees jump out to an early lead. Their bullpen would collapse as the Rays won 11-5.
