<p>MINNEAPOLIS &mdash; Rafael Devers homered for the fourth straight game and the streaking Boston Red Sox beat the Minnesota Twins 4-2 on a snowy Tuesday in a series opener moved back following the fatal police shooting of a Black man in a nearby suburb.</p>
<p>Hunter Renfroe hit a solo homer and Bobby Dalbec added a pair of RBI doubles as Boston won its seventh in a row after losing its first three games of the season.</p>
<p>Monday’s game was postponed due to safety and sensitivity concerns in the Twin Cities after the police shooting a day earlier of Daunte Wright during a traffic stop. The Twins held a moment of silence for Wright prior to Tuesday’s game.</p>
<p>Snow flurries fell for most of the game and it was 33 degrees for the first pitch. That made for the third-coldest start at Target Field, the record being 27 degrees on April 7, 2018.</p>
<p>Adam Ottavino (1-0) earned the win with a scoreless inning of relief. Matt Barnes pitched a perfect ninth for his first save of the season.</p>
<p>Randy Dobnak (0-2) took the loss for Minnesota, which has lost three in a row.</p>
<p>MARINERS 4, ORIOLES 3, 8 INNINGS, 1ST GAME</p>
<p>BALTIMORE &mdash; Kyle Seager hit an RBI double in the eighth and Seattle won its third extra-inning game in as many tries this season, beating Baltimore in the first game of a doubleheader.</p>
<p>Seager, who has reached base in nine of his last 10 plate appearances, laced a one-out double to center off Tanner Scott (0-1). That scored Mitch Haniger, who opened the extra frame as the automatic runner on second base.</p>
<p>Seattle won its third in a row overall. The Orioles have dropped four straight and six of seven.</p>
<p>Rafael Montero (1-0) earned the victory despite surrendering the lead in the seventh inning. Kendall Graveman pitched the eighth for his first career save.</p>
<p>METS 4, PHILLIES 3, 8 INNINGS, 1ST GAME</p>
<p>NEW YORK &mdash; Pete Alonso and Jonathan Villar each hit an RBI single in the eighth inning to give New York the win over Philadelphia in the first game of their doubleheader.</p>
<p>Dominic Smith socked an early two-run homer for the Mets, who took the opener of a four-game series between NL East rivals in extra innings.</p>
<p>With the Mets down a run, Alonso opened the bottom of the eighth with a sharp single off Héctor Neris (0-1) that scored placement runner Francisco Lindor from second. It was New York’s first hit since the second inning.</p>
<p>With the bases loaded, Villar lofted a full-count pitch to left-center over the head of left fielder Andrew McCutchen.</p>
<p>Trevor May (1-1) struck out Jean Segura with two runners in scoring position and ended up with his first win for the Mets.</p>
<p>ATHLETICS 7, DIAMONDBACKS 5</p>
<p>PHOENIX &mdash; Jed Lowrie hit a tying, three-run homer in the seventh inning, Seth Brown had a solo shot in the next frame and Oakland rallied from a five-run deficit to beat Arizona.</p>
<p>Arizona’s bullpen was sharp before unraveling in the seventh inning.</p>
<p>Mark Canha made it 5-2 win an RBI single and Lowrie followed with a three-run homer off Kevin Ginkel. Brown led off the eighth with his homer off Anthony Swarzak (0-1) and Matt Chapman’s run-scoring triple off the wall in the ninth made it 7-5.</p>
<p>Yusmeiro Petit (3-0) got the final out in the seventh inning and Lou Trivino worked around a walk in the ninth for his first save.</p>
<p>Oakland has won five of six since starting the season 0-6.</p>
