White Sox designate Wikelman González for assignment

It’s been 2 1/2 weeks since Ohtani was last known to have thrown. It’s doubtful he’ll be back on the major league mound before Sept. 1 as he recovers from left knee and right biceps issues, but he is in the Dodgers lineup as a DH tonight.

Edwards got the scoring started with a two-run single in the third inning and scored on a single by Otto Lopez. He later drove in his third run with a base hit in the fifth before scoring his second run. The 26-year-old second baseman is hitting .287/.367/.394 with six homers, 54 runs scored, 44 RBI, and 18 steals across 493 plate appearances.

Lopez drove in two runs on a bases-loaded single in the third inning. He later added a single and a run scored in the fifth before reaching for a third time on a walk in the seventh.

Alcantara was lights out on Saturday, dominating the Angels over seven shutout innings. He scattered three hits and one walk while collecting eight strikeouts, tossing 70 of 108 pitches for strikes. The 30-year-old right-hander ends the day with a 3.52 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, and a 128/42 K/BB ratio across an MLB-leading 163 2/3 innings. He’ll look to follow up the performance against the Reds in Cincinnati on Friday.

Ureña pitched two quiet innings against the Marlins before completely losing it in the third. A base hit and two walks loaded the bases for Xavier Edwards, who doubled to drive in two runs. Another walk loaded the bases again before Otto Lopez drove in two more runs on a single. That would do it for Ureña, ending his day with one out in the third inning. The 22-year-old right-hander will take a 2.83 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and a 97/55 K/BB ratio across 101 2/3 innings into a start against the Rangers in Anaheim on Thursday.

Soderstrom’s only hit of the day left the yard as he took Raymond Burgos deep for a solo homer in the seventh inning. It was his second homer in as many days in Boston.

Bolte was hitless through his first four at-bats before giving the A’s an insurance run with a solo blast in the ninth. His fifth home run of the season left the bat at 111.5 mph and traveled an impressive 439 feet. The 23-year-old outfielder is hitting .253/.332/.350 with 25 runs scored, 22 RBI, and 13 steals across 270 plate appearances.

Harris was summoned with two outs and two runners on in the eighth inning with a four-run lead. He struck out the final batter to preserve the lead, then returned for the ninth after the A’s added an insurance run. Harris gave up a run on a double and a single, then loaded the bases before retiring the final batter to preserve the win with his 10th save of the season.

The Red Sox put a pair of runs on the board in the opening frame, scoring two on a single, walk, double steal, and a base hit. Jump then settled in nicely, pitching five more scoreless innings while collecting an impressive 11 strikeouts for his first career double-digit strikeout performance. The 23-year-old left-hander will take a 4.46 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, and an 84/33 K/BB ratio across 72 2/3 innings into a start against the Rangers in Sacramento on Friday.

Bennett tossed three scoreless innings, then gave up a run on three hits in the fourth. The A’s brought two more runs in to score in the fifth on a hit batter, a single, and a double. Bennett returned for the sixth and issued a walk with one out before he was pulled at 88 pitches. The inherited runner would come in to score. The 25-year-old left-hander will take a 3.17 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and a 55/16 K/BB ratio across 76 2/3 innings into a start against the Blue Jays in Toronto on Thursday.
