ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Manny Machado hit a three-run homer, his 13th this season, in the 10th inning and tied his season high of five RBIs, helping the San Diego Padres rally for a 6-4 victory over the Texas Rangers on Saturday.

The Padres still have a chance to win their seventh consecutive series against the Rangers after their 16th victory in the past 19 games against Texas. San Diego came back from a 3-1 deficit in the eighth a day after losing the series opener 9-7 despite scoring five runs in the top of the first.

Machado had an RBI double in the third, and his run-scoring groundout got the Padres within 3-2 in the eighth before Jackson Merrill's tying single.

Jake Burger's two-run homer gave the Rangers a 3-1 lead in the seventh after Texas had pulled even on consecutive doubles from Josh Jung and Wyatt Langford an inning earlier.

Joe Ross (0-1), the sixth Texas pitcher, walked Samad Taylor while the speedy No. 2 hitter was trying to bunt for the third time in the game to start the 10th. Machado lined a 2-0 sinker into the left field seats near the San Diego bullpen.

Adrian Morejon (6-1) struck out five in two scoreless innings, and Mason Miller earned his 20th save in 20 chances despite Langford's RBI infield single in the 10th. Miller struck out two as the Rangers fanned a season-high 17 times.

Texas scratched scheduled starter Nathan Eovaldi due to left knee soreness. MacKenzie Gore moved up a day to replace him but was pitching on a regular four-day rest. The left-hander allowed five hits and one run with six strikeouts in six innings.

Fernando Tatis Jr. doubled in the third on a liner just out of the reach of Langford in left-center field, and Machado's two-out RBI double glanced off the fingers of the center fielder's glove in right center.

Neither team announced a starting pitcher for the series finale Sunday.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kyle Schwarber launched two long home runs in Philadelphia's eight-run third inning and Bryce Harper became the 11th player in franchise history to hit for the cycle, leading the Phillies to a 15-3 victory over the New York Mets on Saturday night

Schwarber led off the Phillies' huge inning with a solo homer off Mets starter Freddy Peralta, sending the ball 456 feet into the second deck in right field.

Later in the inning, Schwarber hit a three-run shot off Cionel Perez into nearly the same spot, 457 feet away.

Schwarber is the 67th player in major league history to hit two home runs in an inning and the second this season, joining Houston’s Yordan Alvarez, who accomplished the feat on June 12. He's the fourth Phillies player to do so, along with Trea Turner (Aug. 19, 2023), Von Hayes (June 11, 1985) and Andy Seminick (June 2, 1949).

Schwarber hit his third homer of the game — giving him a major league-leading 28 — in the seventh, a two-run shot off Tobias Myers. He finished 4 for 5 with six RBIs and scored four runs.

Harper completed his first career cycle by the fifth inning. He hit a solo home run in the first, his 16th of the season. He doubled and scored on an error in the third, then singled after Schwarber’s second home run.

In the fifth, Harper lined a ball into the gap in left-center field and motored around to third base for a two-run triple. He's the first Phillies player to hit for the cycle since Weston Wilson on Aug. 15, 2024. Harper finished 4 for 5 with three RBIs and two runs.

Harper is the second player this season — and this week — to hit for the cycle, joining the Chicago Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong, who accomplished the feat Monday night in a 5-4 win over Colorado.
