(AP) — Jackie Bradley Jr.'s hitting streak has ended at 29 games, but Xander Bogaerts has continued his hitting streak.

Bradley went 0-for-4 as the Boston Red Sox mustered just six hits in an 8-2 loss to Colorado. Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a first-inning single to run his hit streak to 19 games.

The Rockies rallied after David Ortiz launched a two-run homer in the bottom of the first. Carlos Gonzalez, Trevor Story and Dustin Garneau hit two-run homers off Clay Buchholz, who is 2-5 with a 6.35 ERA. He was outpitched by Jon Gray, who limited the Bosox to five hits over 7 1/3 innings.

George Springer socked a pair of solo homers and Luis Valbuena  added a two-run shot as Houston completed a three-game sweep of Baltimore, 4-2. Astros starter and winner Lance McCullers walked six over just five innings, but he also limited the Orioles to one hit while striking out 10.

J.A. Happ allowed a run and three hits in seven innings of Toronto's 3-1 triumph over the Yankees in New York. Edwin Encarnacion  hit a go-ahead, two-run single to spoil the return of Yankees designated hitter Alex Rodriguez, who was 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in his first game since straining his right hamstring.

Pinch-hitter Josh Harrison lined a tiebreaking, two-run double in the sixth to help the Pittsburgh Pirates earn their fourth straight win, 8-3 over Arizona. Gerrit Cole hit a three-run double and a double for the Bucs, but the bullpen blew his victory after he left with a 3-1 lead.

Solo homers by Danny Espinosa and Bryce Harper pushed Washington past St. Louis 2-1. Espinosa's seventh-inning blast made a winner out of Joe Ross, who gave up a run and six hits in seven innings to lower his ERA to 2.52.
