■ Cardinals: Adam Wainwright threw a three-hit shutout as the Cardinals snapped the Marlins’ four-game winning streak 5-0. Wainwright (9-5) struck out five in his 10th career shutout and didn’t allow a hit until Adeiny Hechavarri­a doubled to open the sixth. Wainwright is 3-0 in three starts this month, allowing one run in 22 innings. Jhonny Peralta homered and Stephen Piscotty had two RBIs. ■ Nationals: Tanner Roark pitched eight innings of five-hit ball and had an RBI single in a 6-0 victory over the Pirates. Anthony Rendon homered and drove in two, and Stephen Drew had three doubles and an RBI as the Nats won their fifth straight. ■ Mariners: Hisashi Iwakuma limited the Astros to two hits in seven innings and Robinson Cano drove in the only run in a 1-0 victory. Iwakuma (10-6) became the first Mariners pitcher to reach double-digit wins. He struck out eight and walked one. ... RHP Felix Hernandez, out nearly two months with a strained calf, will pitch Wednesday against the White Sox. ■ Orioles: Chris Tillman gave up one run on four hits in seven innings and became the AL’s second 13-game winner in a 2-1 victory over the Rays. J.J. Hardy hit a two-run homer. Zach Britton struck out two in the ninth for his 29th save, sealing the Orioles’ fourth straight victory. ■ Athletics: Khris Davis homered twice, Ryon Healy hit his first and Sonny Gray won for the first time in nearly three months in a 5-4 victory over the Blue Jays. Healy’s three-run shot off R.A. Dickey was his first majorleagu­e hit. Gray allowed three runs in six innings. ■ MLB: MLB executive Joe Torre sent a memo to managers, warning them to stop arguing balls and strikes. “The prevalence of manager ejections simply cannot continue,” Torre said. Managers are increasing­ly relying on technology from the clubhouse to argue from the dugout. Managers or coaches ejected for arguing balls and strikes “will be discipline­d, including at least a fine,” he said.
