    Tanner Scott blew a three-run lead in the ninth Monday against the Rockies.

    Scott managed to walk Ezequiel Tovar with one out before giving up a single and an RBI double. At that point, he intentionally walked Hunter Goodman to load the bases. He followed that with a dominant three-pitch strikeout against TJ Rumfield, but Cole Carrigg then doubled to the gap with two outs. It seemed poised to give the Rockies the lead, but Goodman was called out at the plate after a replay review. It’s just Scott’s second blown save of the year and first to come in the ninth inning. He’ll remain the Dodgers’ primary closer for now, but it does look like the team will be getting Edwin Díaz back before the end of the month.
White Sox draft Landon Thome, son of HOFer Jim

    Dodgers activated RHP Landon Knack from the 60-day injured list.

    After a bullpen day Friday, the Dodgers wanted to add a long man tonight, just in case something goes wrong in Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s start. Knack had been out since the end of the end of the spring with an intercostal strain. He’d made three rehab appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City, allowing one run in three innings last time out. He’ll likely rejoin the Comets either after tonight’s game or tomorrow’s.

    Royce Lewis had a two-run homer and a double in the Twins’ 5-3 takedown of the Angels on Saturday.

    Lewis hit a 419-foot homer off Ryan Johnson in the second and later crushed a liner to left in the seventh. Both hits left the bat at 107-108 mph. He’s 5-for-12 with two homers the last three days, pushing his OPS up to .699. That’s the highest he’s been since late April. He’s hit .270/.328/.508 with seven homers in 31 games since returning from Triple-A.

    Joe Ryan allowed two runs over six innings in a no-decision Saturday against the Angels.

    Ryan left with a one-run lead, which was blown in the seventh by Tommy Nance in his Twins debut. So, he finishes the first half 6-5 with a 2.85 ERA. Ryan has produced 11 quality starts, which doesn’t count a couple of outings in which he pitched five-plus scoreless innings.

    Yoendrys Gómez threw a scoreless ninth for his 11th save Saturday against the Angels.

    Gómez has his first full-inning save since June 28. He also recorded saves on June 29 and July 7, but those saw him pick up just one out each time. Gómez allowed a single to Mike Trout and walked Nolan Schanuel with one out in the ninth today, but he got Jorge Soler to pop out and struck out Vaughn Grissom to end the game. He still hasn’t blown a save this season.

    Ryan Johnson surrendered three runs in five innings Saturday in a no-decision against the Twins.

    The runs came in the second, which featured two walks and a two-run homer from Royce Lewis. The rally might have lasted longer, but Tristan Gray made the third out of the inning on an odd delayed steal attempt that saw him thrown out pretty easily at second base. Johnson walked three in all and struck out just one. With a 6.75 ERA in six starts and three relief appearances, his spot shouldn’t be assured in the second half.

    Chase Meidroth went 2-for-3 and doubled in the only run of the game as the White Sox edged the A’s 1-0 on Saturday.

    Meidroth also had a single in the contest. With the White Sox having Caleb Bonemer on the way and adding another elite infield prospect in Roch Cholowsky with the No. 1 pick in today’s draft, one wonders if Meidroth might eventually become obsolete in Chicago, in spite of his very solid play to date. It’s not an issue for this year, though. He’s batting .272/.345/.383 through 388 plate appearances.

    Erick Fedde picked up a win after working four scoreless innings Saturday against the A’s.

    Feddy came in for the third after Bryan Hudson and Chris Murphy pitched scoreless first and second innings, respectively, and allowed one hit with three strikeouts through the sixth. He started the seventh by giving up a double to Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, leading to his exit, but Sean Newcomb came in and stranded the runner. It’s Fedde’s fifth win, all of which have come since the beginning of June. He has a 4.15 ERA in nine starts and 10 appearances as a bulk guy.
