Tanaka pitches Yankees past Angels 3-1
May 27, 2018

NEW YORK (AP) Masahiro Tanaka pitched six sharp innings and struck out Japanese countryman Shohei Ohtani twice as the New York Yankees defeated the Los Angeles Angels 3-1 Sunday.

Brett Gardner had three hits for New York, which won five of six against the Angels this season.

Although Ohtani was pushed back from Sunday's scheduled start due to what the Angels called ''workload management,'' Tanaka (6-2) held up his end up of the highly anticipated pitchers' duel that never materialized. Tanaka struck out eight and allowed just Andrelton Simmons' sixth-inning home run in his longest outing in nearly a month.

Pitching on his 30th birthday, Angels right-hander Garrett Richards (4-4) allowed three runs over 2 1/3 innings and matched a season high with five walks.

Aroldis Chapman walked Ohtani to begin the ninth, but struck out a pair to earn his 10th save in 11 chances.

BRAVES 7, RED SOX 1

BOSTON (AP) - Prized rookie Ronald Acuna Jr. took a high-flying tumble while beating out an infield hit, exiting Atlanta's win with knee and lower back pain.

Acuna waved his arms ''safe'' as he crossed first base before his left foot gave out in the seventh inning, and he went sprawling. He walked off the field slowly, passing on a wheel chair that was rolled out for him.

Mike Foltynewicz (4-3) took a no-hit bid into the sixth and went seven innings. Tyler Flowers hit a three-run homer off Red Sox ace Chris Sale (5-2), salvaging the finale of a three-game interleague series.

INDIANS, 10, ASTROS 9, 14 INNINGS

CLEVELAND (AP) - Rookie Greg Allen homered on Brad Peacock's first pitch in the 14th inning, lifting Cleveland to a wild win.

Allen's first homer of the season landed in the seats in right and triggered a celebration for the Indians, who rallied twice to overcome another impressive performance for Jose Altuve.

Cleveland scored five runs in the ninth. Michael Brantley's two-out RBI single off Hector Rondon tied it at 8.

Evan Gattis' two-out homer off Dan Otero (1-1) gave Houston a 9-8 lead in the 13th, but Yonder Alonso responded with a leadoff drive against Collin McHugh in the bottom half.

Peacock (1-2) got the loss on the only pitch he threw.

Altuve had four hits and drove in two runs. The reigning AL MVP had a streak of 10 consecutive hits, breaking his own club record, before he lined out to center in the ninth.

NATIONALS 5, MARLINS 2

MIAMI (AP) - Bryce Harper hit his NL-leading 16th homer, and Washington completed a three-game sweep by beating Miami for the 11th time in a row.

The Nationals matched the longest winning streak in franchise history against one team. It's the Marlins' longest losing streak against an opponent since 1999.

Anthony Rendon hit his fifth home run for the Nationals, who lead the league in homers.

Stephen Strasburg (6-4) pitched five shutout innings and contributed his first RBI of the season, but departed after throwing 103 pitches. Brandon Kintzler pitched around a single in the ninth for his second save.

Justin Bour hit his 10th homer for Miami, and Elieser Hernandez (0-2) allowed two runs in five innings in his third career start.

MARINERS 3, TWINS 1

SEATTLE (AP) - Ryon Healy doubled home two runs in the eighth inning and Alex Colome earned a save in his first outing for the Mariners, who swept the three-game series and have won eight of their last nine.

Mike Leake (5-3) allowed one run in eight innings for the win. He outpitched Jose Berrios (5-5), who gave up two runs in 7 1/3 innings.

Colome pitched a perfect inning for his 12th save of the season. He arrived in Seattle on Saturday night, a day after the Mariners got him and outfielder Denard Span in a trade with Tampa Bay. Colome will pitch the eighth inning most of the time for Seattle, but closer Edwin Diaz had the day off after working in four of the previous five games.

CARDINALS 6, PIRATES 4

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Harrison Bader's pinch-hit bloop single off Pittsburgh closer Felipe Vazquez keyed a late rally for St. Louis.

The Cardinals won for just the fourth time in 19 games when trailing after seven innings by pouncing on Pittsburgh's bullpen. St. Louis loaded the bases off Michael Feliz (0-2) and the Pirates brought in Vazquez with one out in the eighth. Bader fought off a 99 mph fastball from Vazquez and dumped it into shallow right field to tie the game.

Vazquez walked Yairo Munoz on four pitches to hand St. Louis the lead and the Cardinals added another on a fielder's choice RBI by Carson Kelly. Vazquez has blown three straight save opportunities for the Pirates, who have dropped seven of nine.

Sam Tuivailala (1-0) picked up the win with a scoreless seventh. Bud Norris worked a perfect ninth for his 11th save.

BREWERS 8, METS 7

MILWAUKEE (AP) - Domingo Santana's two-run double highlighted a four-run seventh inning for surging Milwaukee.

Jesus Aguilar added a three-run homer and four RBIs for the NL Central leaders. The Brewers won their fifth straight series by taking three of four games from the struggling Mets.

Boone Logan (1-0) got the win despite giving up Asdrubal Cabrera's solo homer in the seventh.

The Brewers teed off on three relievers in the decisive seventh. Jerry Blevins (1-1) got the loss.

Struggling Milwaukee closer Corey Knebel gave up a solo homer to Devin Mesoraco before finishing for his fourth save.

DODGERS 6, PADRES 1

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Rookie Walker Buehler tied a career high with eight strikeouts, Max Muncy and Cody Bellinger homered, and the Dodgers earned their eighth victory in 10 games.

Buehler (3-1) allowed one run in seven innings. Muncy hit a towering two-run homer in the eighth off Tyler Webb, and Bellinger tacked on a two-run drive with two out.

San Diego right-hander Adam Cimber (2-2) allowed two runs and five hits in two innings. The Padres went exclusively with their bullpen in the series finale.

BLUE JAYS 5, PHILLIES 3

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Devon Travis and Dwight Smith Jr. each hit a two-run double for Toronto, and J.A. Happ pitched neatly into the seventh inning.

Curtis Granderson added a solo homer to help the Blue Jays take two of three in the interleague series.

Happ (7-3) allowed three runs - two earned - and six hits, striking out eight in 6 2/3 innings against his former team.

Phillies starter Nick Pivetta (4-3) gave up two runs in five innings in his first career start against the team he grew up rooting for in Victoria, British Columbia.

RAYS 8, ORIOLES 3

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - Relievers Vidal Nuno and Austin Pruitt combined to throw 8 2/3 scoreless innings, leading Tampa Bay to the win.

Nuno (1-0) and Pruitt followed Sergio Romo, who was charged with three runs in one-third of an inning as the Rays went with an unconventional pitching lineup for the third consecutive day.

Pruitt entered in the fourth and limited Baltimore to three hits over 5 2/3 innings to get his first save.

Brad Miller had three RBIs for Tampa Bay, and Carlos Gomez homered in the seventh.

Baltimore's Kevin Gausman (3-4) was tagged for seven runs in 2 2/3 innings.

ATHLETICS 2, DIAMONDBACKS 1

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Matt Chapman hit a tiebreaking RBI single off Zack Greinke with two out in the sixth inning, lifting the Athletics to the win.

Jonathan Lucroy homered for the first time this season and rookie Frankie Montas (1-0) pitched three-hit ball over six innings in his first start with Oakland.

The A's went ahead to stay by taking advantage of some control problems for Greinke (3-4) after he struck out the first two batters in the sixth. Matt Olson and Chad Pinder walked before Chapman sent a sharp liner into left field.

Blake Treinen pitched the ninth for his 12th save.

ROYALS 5, RANGERS 3

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Jason Hammel struck out 10, Drew Butera and Salvador Perez homered, and Kansas City held on for the win.

Hammel (2-5) pitched 5 1/3 shutout innings. He gave up four hits, including three doubles, and two walks.

Perez and Butera each homered off Cole Hamels (3-5), who allowed five runs in 6 1/3 innings with a season-low two strikeouts. Hamels didn't give up more than two earned runs in any of his five previous starts.

Kelvin Herrera pitched a scoreless ninth inning for his 11th save.

Joey Gallo hit a two-run homer for Texas, and Robinson Chirinos belted a solo drive.

ROCKIES 8, REDS 2

DENVER (AP) - Carlos Gonzalez had a season-high four hits for Colorado, including a third-deck homer off Matt Harvey.

It was Gonzalez's first four-hit game since Sept. 12, 2016, at Arizona.

David Dahl, Nolan Arenado and Ian Desmond also homered for the Rockies, who earned their second home series win of the season. German Marquez (4-5) pitched seven innings of one-run ball in his second straight victory.

Harvey (1-3) gave up four runs and nine hits in 5 1/3 innings in his first loss with Cincinnati.

TIGERS 3, WHITE SOX 2

DETROIT (AP) - Blaine Hardy pitched seven strong innings to help Detroit get the win.

Hardy allowed one run and three hits, struck out six and walked one in his third start of the season. The 31-year-old left-hander is helping out in the rotation while Jordan Zimmermann is out with a shoulder issue.

Joe Jimenez struck out the side on 12 pitches in the eighth, and Shane Greene allowed Jose Rondon's homer in the ninth before finishing for his 13th save.

The last-place White Sox lost for the third time in four games. James Shields (1-5) gave up three runs and five hits in seven innings.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack

SouthPoint released college over/under win totals for football season:

— Colorado 4

— Georgia 10.5, over -$115

— Houston 7.5, over -$115

— Utah 7

— Washington 10.5, under -$120

— West Virginia 7, under -$120

**********

Armadillo: Monday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports weekend…….

13) Indians 10, Astros 9 (14)- Emotions ran high in this game; Houston manager AJ Hinch got tossed by the home plate ump while there was a 3-0 count on his batter at the plate in the 6th inning.

Previous batter had been called out on a close pitch.

Jose Altuve drilled the first pitch after the ejection for a triple. It was Altuve’s 9th consecutive hit- he later added his 10th consecutive hit, but the Cleveland CF made a sliding catch to end the streak in the ninth inning.

12) Walt Dropo holds the MLB record with 12 consecutive hits, in 1952. Dropo knocked in 144 runs as a Boston rookie in 1950, but in his 13-year career, he never knocked in 100+ runs again.

11) Cleveland bullpen has struggled; Terry Francona left Trevor Bauer in to throw 127 pitches in a game they led 3-2 in 8th inning. the reliever came in, threw eight pitches, and it became 5-3, and later 8-3, which made it obvious why Francona is reluctant to change pitchers.

Astros then blew an 8-3 lead in 9th inning and lost it on a walk-off homer in 14th inning.

10) Over is 15-1 in the Indians’ last 16 home games.

9) There is a race car driver named Will Power; he won the Indianapolis 500 Sunday. Feel free to make your own jokes.

8) Not to say the Padres are hurting for pitching, but they traded for Phil Hughes, who the Twins had DFA’d earlier this week. Hughes’ ERA’s the last three years: 5.95, 5.87, 6.75.

7) Ronald Acuna left Sunday’s game with knee/lower back pain after he ran out an infield single in Boston. It looked really bad, but the initial reports weren’t as bad; he hyperextended the knee.

6) Oakland A’s have only 18 home runs in the Coliseum this year, but 47 on the road.

5) The guy that founded ESPN over 40 years ago did so after he was fired as Communications Director of the NHL’s Hartford Whalers. One door closes, another opens.

4) Colorado Rockies are 15-7 when backup catcher Tony Walters starts.

3) Zach Greinke has thrown 151 innings since the last time he allowed a stolen base.

2) Rays’ pitcher Austin Pruitt got a rare 5-inning save for Tampa Bay Sunday; the last pitcher to throw 5+ innings and get a regular season save was Joaquin Benoit in September 2002- he threw seven innings in his save.

1) Cavaliers 87, Celtics 79— Pretty solid day in Cleveland Sunday; Indians rally back from down five runs in 9th to win, then Cavaliers win a Game 7 in Boston.

LEADING OFF: Braves await word on Acuna, Verlander vs. Yanks
May 27, 2018

A look at what's happening around the majors Monday:

BANGED-UP BRAVE

The Braves are awaiting a diagnosis on standout rookie Ronald Acuna Jr. following a frightening injury at Fenway Park on Sunday. Acuna's left leg buckled and he fell hard on his back after running through a groundout at first base, and he was in significant pain before walking slowly off the field. Atlanta would only say the 20-year-old outfielder has knee and lower back pain, and manager Brian Snitker said Acuna is ''being looked at, so we'll know more.'' Atlanta is set to open a home series against the Mets with a doubleheader.

BEST OF

Baseball's best offense gets a showdown with perhaps baseball's best pitcher when the Yankees host Justin Verlander and the Astros. The Aaron Judge-led Baby Bombers entered Sunday leading the majors with 284 runs, 83 home runs and an .811 OPS. Verlander, meanwhile, has the top ERA (1.08) among qualified starters and tops all pitchers with 3.1 wins above replacement, per Fangraphs.

MENDING MOOKIE

Boston will probably still be without Mookie Betts a day after he was scratched with tightness in his left side. Betts felt the tightness during batting practice Sunday, and manager Alex Cora wasn't optimistic about Betts returning for the opener of a series against Toronto. Cora moved Andrew Benintendi to the leadoff spot and shifted him to center field Sunday in Betts' absence, with Jackie Bradley Jr. going from center to right and Blake Swihart playing left.

DOMINANT DEGROM

Good news for the Mets' bullpen: it's Jacob deGrom's day to pitch. New York's relievers allowed 12 runs over the final two games of a series in Milwaukee - the Brewers took three of four. Some length from deGrom would help. He's 4-0 with a 1.54 ERA and has pitched at least seven innings in five of seven starts. The bad news for that same bullpen: deGrom is starting Game 1 of a doubleheader at Atlanta, and there was no Game 2 starter announced as of late Sunday night.

GOOD SIGNS

Is Bryce Harper ready to bust out of his recent hitting funk? Nationals manager Dave Martinez thinks so, certainly after seeing the long home run Harper hit in a 5-2 victory Sunday at Miami. Harper pulled a pitch from lefty Jarlin Garcia inside the foul pole leading off the sixth inning, sending customers scurrying at the Metro Grill behind right field. Harper was batting .211 in his 10 games previous to Sunday. ''That was a bomb,'' Martinez said. ''To hit a ball like that against a left-handed pitcher, that's a good sign.''

Struggling Pirates open series with Cubs
May 28, 2018

So far, not so good for the Pittsburgh Pirates in what could be a telling stretch of 10 games against fellow National League Central contenders.

Going into a series opener Monday against the Chicago Cubs at PNC Park, Pittsburgh has lost seven of nine, including two in a row against St. Louis in a three-game home series.

It's the first time the Pirates have lost two in a row against a divisional opponent -- and there are more of those games upcoming. After three against the Cubs, Pittsburgh goes to St. Louis for four more against the Cardinals.

The Pirates are struggling to get all parts of their game going at once. On Sunday, their bullpen faltered as they blew a three-run lead in a 6-4 loss to the Cardinals.

"You give these young men an opportunity to pitch. To think they're going to pitch perfect, clean innings for an entire season, you're pretty naive," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said of his young bullpen.

"There are going to be challenges the league's going to throw at them, that hitters are going to throw at them."

In addition, after Sunday's game it was learned that closer Felipe Vazquez, who had his third blown save in as many opportunities, has left forearm discomfort.

The Pirates already were without catcher Francisco Cervelli, who had flu symptoms, and starter Ivan Nova is questionable for his Tuesday turn against the Cubs because of a ligament problem in his pitching index finger.

Pittsburgh (28-24) has exceeded many predictions by contending in the NL Central through two months but has fallen to fourth.

The Pirates will have one advantage Monday over the third-place Cubs (27-22). Chicago played a national TV game Sunday night -- an 8-3 win over San Francisco, breaking open a game that was tied 3-3 after the first inning -- and had to then travel late that night and play an early afternoon game on the Memorial Day holiday.

Chicago had lost three of four before Sunday.

Chicago left-hander Mike Montgomery (0-1, 5.33 ERA) is scheduled to face Pittsburgh right-hander Chad Kuhl (4-2, 4.20) on Monday.

Montgomery will be making a spot start. He has pitched 25 1/3 innings in relief, the most among Chicago relievers.

The Cubs' rotation is in upheaval with Yu Darvish going on the 10-day disabled list because of right triceps tendinitis.

Originally, Tyler Chatwood was on target to start Monday, but he filled in for Darvish on Sunday night.

Montgomery last season was 5-5 with a 4.15 ERA in 14 starts. He was supposed to get a start May 19, but it was wiped out because of a rain postponement a couple of nights earlier that changed the rotation.

"It's a long year," Montgomery said then. "The next time something pops up, I'll be ready for that, too."

Darvish's injury has popped up, but Montgomery already was tailoring himself to be called upon should a starting spot open.

"I have to put myself in a position to be in that conversation, and I've done that the last couple of weeks," he said. "To keep doing that moving forward is what I'm focused on."

Montgomery is 1-0 with a 1.98 ERA in six career appearances (one start) against Pittsburgh.

Kuhl is 3-1 in his past seven starts. At PNC Park, he is 2-0 with a 4.28 ERA in five starts, with the Pirates 4-1 in those games.

One of those no-decisions and team wins came Wednesday, when Pittsburgh beat Cincinnati 5-4 in 12 innings. Kuhl pitched six-plus innings, giving up one run (on a homer) and five hits with six strikeouts and one walk.

Against the Cubs, Kuhl is 1-4 with an 8.23 ERA in seven career starts.

Is playing time limiting Ohtani's value?
May 28, 2018

The way Shohei Ohtani is playing, nothing seems impossible. He looks like he could contend for a batting title and an ERA title at the same time.

Problem is, right now he doesn't qualify for either.

Ohtani has been a marvel in his first two months with the Los Angeles Angels, but as impressive as he is on the mound and at the plate, it's fair to wonder if there's a ceiling on his value. The only real blemish on the Japanese star's resume so far is that he simply isn't playing enough - and talk of Ohtani as an MVP candidate will likely meet resistance for that reason.

Right now, Ohtani has a better OPS than Jose Abreu and a better ERA than Dallas Keuchel. That type of two-way performance is the stuff of fantasy, but he's made only seven starts on the mound and has only 117 plate appearances. As of Sunday, Fangraphs had Ohtani ranked 35th in the majors in wins above replacement - impressive, but not exactly groundbreaking.

''You definitely need to pace him and be a little more conservative because there's really no track record in the major leagues of someone attempting this,'' Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. ''So you definitely want to at least make sure from the recovery aspect that he's recovered enough to be ready for whatever challenge hitting in the major leagues brings or pitching in the major leagues does.''

Ohtani has had at least six days off between all of his starts on the mound, and the 23-year-old right-hander is 4-1 with a 3.35 ERA. This past weekend snapped a steak of three consecutive Sundays in which he'd pitched. The Angels skipped his turn this time, but he could be back in the rotation this week.

Ohtani's pitching schedule affects when the team can use him as a designated hitter.

''We give him enough time leading up to a start to where he can concentrate on pitching, and that's usually a day or two before, depending on what's going on, and then, obviously, a recovery day when he's done pitching,'' Scioscia said. ''So his availability has been what we had expected and then where he's been pushed back in between and been able to DH, he'll get some opportunity to get some more at-bats during the course of a week.''

Ohtani's .291 average and six homers suggest he's getting enough rest to stay productive. The question is whether the Angels - currently 4 + games out of first place in the AL West - may be tempted to push him a bit harder as the season progresses, and really test the limits of what he can contribute.

A few more developments from around the majors:

IRON MAN

Cal Ripken played 2,632 consecutive games for the Baltimore Orioles, a record that would seem untouchable during an era where working in some rest is often considered an effective way to improve a player's performance.

''It's kind of sad to me,'' Ripken said recently. ''I valued the role of an everyday player to be in there and try to meet the challenge of today. One game can determine whether you make the playoffs or not out of 162. ... You need to put your best team on the field and try to meet that challenge. And that's what I always tried to do.''

Ripken said he was encouraged to see that five players played 162 games last season: Joey Votto, Freddy Galvis, Rougned Odor, Alcides Escobar and Eric Hosmer.

HIGHLIGHT

The interleague matchup Tuesday between the Astros and Giants led to an unusual moment for one family - when San Francisco's Brandon Crawford homered off Houston's Gerrit Cole. Crawford's sister Amy is married to Cole.

LINE OF THE WEEK

Mike Trout of the Angels hit a homer and three doubles, part of the first five-hit game of his career Saturday night at Yankee Stadium. Los Angeles won 11-4 .
