The Blue Jays moved one step closer to a division crown by rallying with two runs in the eighth inning and one run in the ninth to steal one from the Orioles, 4-3, on Monday night at Camden Yards. The Blue Jays’ magic number to clinch the AL East is two, meaning they can clinch Tuesday if they beat the O’s and the Yankees lose to the Red Sox.

Blue Jays center fielder Kevin Pillar celebrated his American League Player of the Week Award in typical fashion, with another highlight-reel catch.

Troy Tulowitzki is feeling a lot better, and before Monday night’s 4-3 victory over the Orioles, the Blue Jays shortstop declared that he would “definitely” be ready for the postseason.

Nationals closer Jonathan Papelbon’s season has come to an end. The team announced that Papelbon has been suspended for four games without pay after his confrontation with outfielder Bryce Harper in Sunday’s 12-5 loss to the Phillies.

Several hours before the Cardinals’ series opener on Monday, Adam Wainwright took the PNC Park mound to throw his third simulated inning of the past week. He may be back on that mound, too, before the team departs Pittsburgh on Wednesday night — this time pitching in a meaningful setting for the first time since April.

Major League Baseball is hosting the fourth annual Sports Diversity and Inclusion Symposium at Citi Field on Tuesday and Wednesday. It’s the first time MLB is hosting the invitation only event, which also includes high-level representatives from all the major American sports leagues, collegiate bodies, the Olympics, and individual competitive sports organizations.

The players listed could provide difference-making stats for DraftKings participants on Tuesday.

Three outs away from dropping their magic number for a National League Central title to four, the Cardinals took a punch to the gut when Milwaukee’s Jason Rogers crushed a ninth-inning, go-ahead grand slam. Khris Davis then capped the seven-run inning with his second blast of the day, a three-run shot, sending the Brewers out of town Sunday with an 8-4 win and a series split at Busch Stadium.

Jake Arrieta was brilliant once again, throwing seven scoreless innings and striking out nine in the Cubs’ 2-0 victory over the Pirates on Sunday night at Wrigley Field. The right-hander not only carried a perfect game into the seventh, but he also hit a solo homer to support his cause.

All-Star left-hander Dallas Keuchel completed his record-breaking perfect season at home and the Astros cut another game off the Rangers’ division lead with a 4-2 victory on Sunday afternoon at Minute Maid Park. The Rangers now lead the Astros by 2 1/2 games in the American League West.

The Dodgers battled baseball’s equivalent of altitude sickness this weekend, swept in a three-game series at Coors Field by the Rockies for the first time in eight years. Presumably headed to the postseason, the magic number remained stuck on 2 after a 12-5 loss Sunday.

Dallas Keuchel can’t fathom a world where he’s an American League Cy Young Award favorite because, he says, “I never thought I’d be in this position.”

Johnny Giavotella sparked the Angels again on Sunday, stretching what looked like a routine single into a double to lead off the eighth inning of a tie game at Angel Stadium and setting up Kole Calhoun’s go-ahead RBI single that lifted the Angels to a 3-2 win and sweep of the Mariners.

The Red Sox completed a sweep of the Orioles on Sunday at Fenway Park, blanking Baltimore for a third consecutive day in a 2-0 victory. Boston outscored the O’s, 17-0, during the three-game set to close out the regular season at home.

Carlos Gomez, out of the Astros’ starting lineup for a 14th straight game, entered as a pinch-runner, stole second base and scored on a passed ball after Evan Gattis singled with one out in the eighth inning of Houston’s 4-2 win on Sunday.

Stress? What stress? This isn’t stress. This is the good stuff. The Houston Astros — and the Texas Rangers and Minnesota Twins and Los Angeles Angels — might remember this as the most fun they ever had in baseball.

Angels closer Huston Street was set to get an MRI on his injured groin on Sunday, but the initial indications were that “it’s a significant injury,” manager Mike Scioscia said before the series finale against the Mariners.
