- Brandt Snedeker saw off a challenge from Taiwan's C.T. Pan to claim a three-stroke win at the Wyndham Championship on Sunday. Snedeker had a target on his back after opening with a 59, only the 10th sub-60 round in PGA Tour history.

- Justin Verlander pitched just well enough to earn his 200th career win and the Houston Astros hit five home runs, beating the Oakland Athletics 9-4 to avoid a sweep and retake sole possession of the AL West lead. The surging A's had won the first two games at the Coliseum to tie Houston atop the division. But Yuli Gurriel hit a three-run homer in the third inning and Evan Gattis, Alex Bergman, Marwin Gonzalez and Martin Maldonado later homered for the defending World Series champions.

- Rougned Odor connected on a go-ahead, three-run homer with rain falling in the seventh inning, and the Texas Rangers beat the Los Angeles Angels 4-2 to wrap up a soggy weekend. Odor's 15th home run of the season came minutes before the second rain delay of a game that started 13 hours after the previous night's game ended.
