Around the league...
- Rookie starter Spencer Strider had an incredible outing for Atlanta, striking out 16 Rockies in 8 scoreless innings, setting a franchise record with the punchouts.
- Tanner Houck, a starting hopeful turned effective reliever, will likely miss the rest of the season for Boston.
Red Sox are shutting Tanner Houck (back) down for now and there’s “a good chance” he’ll miss the rest of the season, Alex Cora said.

- Terrance Gore, who has had one of the strangest big league careers as a playoff pinch runner, has been signed by the Mets as they prepare for October.
- Major League Baseball has suspended free agent right-handed starter Carlos Martínez for 85 games for violating the league’s domestic violence policy.
