Arencibia had a tiebreaking two-run single for the Texas Rangers in a 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees on Monday night. By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Jul. 29, 2014 @ 12:01 am Updated Jul 29, 2014 at 2:20 AM By The Associated Press Posted Jul. 29, 2014 @ 12:01 am Updated Jul 29, 2014 at 2:20 AM » Social News p bs:newslist StartDate="20121121" EndDate="p bs:datecalc Months="3"" DateSort="1" UseObjects="1" ObjectClass="81" Taxonomywords="2325,665" ExactTaxonomyMatch="1" Image="1" Count="4" --> ARLINGTON, Texas — Yu Darvish struck out eight in seven innings for his 10th victory and J.P. Arencibia had a tiebreaking two-run single for the Texas Rangers in a 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees on Monday night. Darvish (10-6) shouted out and pumped his fist after his final strikeout, when Brian McCann swung and missed to end the seventh with two runners on base. Brett Gardner homered twice and Derek Jeter had three hits — to pass Carl Yastrzemski on the career hits list — off the All-Star right-hander, who threw 80 of his 108 pitches for strikes five days after losing a rain-shortened game in New York. David Phelps (5-5) lost for the first time in nine starts, allowing four runs and eight hits over six innings. The right-hander, like Darvish, was credited with a complete game last Wednesday in the 2-1 Yankees victory that didn't resume after rain in the bottom of the fifth inning. Blue Jays 14, Red Sox 1 At Boston, Melky Cabrera homered from both sides of the plate and drove in five runs and R.A. Dickey pithed three-hit ball for seven innings as Toronto romped past Boston. The Blue Jays won for the sixth time in seven games while the Red Sox lost one day after stopping a five-game slide that began in Toronto with three losses. Cabrera homered into Boston's bullpen in right field after Jose Reyes led off the game with a walk. Cabrera made it 9-0 in a nine-run sixth with a three-run homer to left, his 14th of the season. Ryan Goins had four hits and four RBIs for Toronto. Astros 7, Athletics 3 At Houston, Chris Carter, Jason Castro, Marc Krauss and Matt Dominguez each hit a home run to help Houston snap a five-game skid. Carter hit a monstrous three-run shot to center field in the third to give the Astros a lead, and Castro and Krauss went back-to-back in the sixth, with Castro's homer a two-run shot. Krauss' homer found the upper deck in right field and chased A's starter Jesse Chavez (8-7). Two batters later, Dominguez sent a drive onto the railroad tracks in left field off reliever Dan Otero. National League Braves 2, Padres 0 At Atlanta, Ervin Santana threw eight scoreless innings, Evan Gattis homered for the first time in more than a month and Atlanta blanked San Diego. Santana (10-6) allowed just five hits and matched his career high with 11 strikeouts. Craig Kimbrel struck out the side in the ninth for his 32nd save. Gattis led off the seventh with a drive into the left-field seats off Jason Lane (0-1), a 37-year-old former outfielder making his first big league start as a pitcher. Marlins 7, Nationals 6 At Miami, Jeff Baker hit a two-out RBI single to cap a four-run rally in the ninth inning as Miami won its fifth straight. The Marlins trailed 6-1 in the seventh and Washington's Rafael Soriano (2-1), who earned his 200th career save Sunday, took the mound in the ninth with a 6-3 lead and blew a save for the fourth time this season Casey McGehee led off with a four-pitch walk, Garrett Jones doubled and Marcell Ozuna hit an RBI single. Jarrod Saltalamacchia's sacrifice fly made it 6-5, and a wild pitch advanced Ozuna to second base. Cubs 4, Rockies 1 At Chicago, Tsuyoshi Wada earned his first big league win, pitching seven strong innings to lead the Cubs past Colorado. Anthony Rizzo drove in two runs to back Wada (1-1), who was making his third career start. Wada cut through the Colorado lineup, allowing one run and five hits. It was a far cry from his last outing, when he lasted four innings and gave up five runs in a loss to San Diego. The sole blemish on Wada's performance came in the sixth when the Rockies got three hits, capped by Nolan Arenado's RBI single. Mets 7, Phillies 1 At New York, Travis d'Arnaud went 3 for 4 with a three-run homer and Bartolo Colon made his second straight strong start for the Mets. D'Arnaud hit one of three doubles for the Mets as they took a 4-0 lead in the first. Then the catcher's seventh home run of the season broke the game open in the fifth. Pirates 5, Giants 0 At San Francisco, Vance Worley tossed a four-hitter for his first career shutout, and the Pirates pounded Madison Bumgarner early in a 5-0 win over the struggling Giants. Worley (4-1) struck out three and walked one. His only other complete game came in a 7-2 win over the Giants on July 26, 2011, in Philadelphia. Four players drove in a run off Bumgarner (12-8) in the first, and Josh Harrison hit his seventh homer in the second to provide all of Pittsburgh's pop. Worley worked over hitters the rest of the way to hand San Francisco its fifth straight loss. Interleague Rays 2, Brewers 1 At St. Petersburg, Fla., Jake Odorizzi won his third consecutive start and James Loney had two RBIs to lead Tampa Bay past Milwaukee. Odorizzi (7-8) allowed one run and three hits in seven innings to beat the team that took him 32nd overall in the 2008 draft. Tampa Bay took a 2-1 lead in the sixth when Loney drove in two with a two-out, bases-loaded single off Kyle Lohse (11-5), who gave up two runs and four hits over six innings. The Rays had won nine in a row before a 3-2 loss Sunday to Boston. The winning streak was the second longest in team history.
