Adam Duvall made MLB history as the Atlanta Braves humbled the Miami Marlins 29-9 in a merciless performance.

Duvall became the first player in league history to hit a two-run homer, a three-run homer and a grand slam in a game in that order, according to STATS.

The Braves produced a National League (NL)-record 29-run outburst against the Marlins on Wednesday, fuelled by an 11-run second inning in Atlanta.

Duvall, Travis d'Arnaud and Ozzie Albies all hit home runs for the Braves, who tied the record for the second most runs in a game in the modern era (since 2000) – falling just short of the Texas Rangers' 30 against the Baltimore Orioles in 2007.

The Milwaukee Brewers also won big, embarrassingly shutting out the Detroit Tigers in a 19-0 triumph.

A pair of Jedd Gyorko home runs and homers from Jacob Nottingham, Ryan Braun and Tyrone Taylor sparked the Brewers, who tallied their most runs in a game since scoring 20 in 2010.

 

Bauer pitches gem

Trevor Bauer inspired the Cincinnati Reds to a 3-0 win over the Chicago Cubs. Bauer struck out 10 over 7.2 innings at Wrigley Field, where he only allowed three runs without a walk.

Deivi Garcia earned his first MLB win as the New York Yankees snapped a five-game losing streak by beating the Toronto Blue Jays 7-2. In his third career start, Garcia gave up two runs and five hits in seven innings. The 21-year-old struck out six.

James McCann homered twice for the first multi-homer game of his career to help the Chicago White Sox rout the Pittsburgh Pirates 8-1.

 

Lopez has game to forget

It was a horror outing for Pablo Lopez and the Marlins. Lopez allowed seven runs in only 1.2 innings of work, walking four. Atlanta's huge second inning saw Lopez dragged.
