Goldschmid­t, Owings carry D-Backs over Rockies

-

DENVER — Paul Goldschmid­t and Chris Owings hit three-run homers, Zack Godley threw well into the eighth inning, and the Arizona Diamondbac­ks beat the Colorado Rockies 10-3 on Thursday.

Goldschmid­t finished with three hits and four RBIs to increase his season total to 64, tops in the majors.

• White Sox 9, Twins 0 — At Minneapoli­s: Jose Abreu and Todd Frazier each hit two-run homers in the first inning, Jose Quintana cruised behind the extra support, and the Chicago White Sox beat Minnesota after a rain-delayed start of 4 hours and 50 minutes that was the longest in Twins history.

Quintana (4-8) departed with two outs in the seventh inning after throwing 113 pitches. He scattered just five singles while striking out nine without a walk for his second consecutiv­e victory.

• Brewers 4, Pirates 2 — At Milwaukee: Corey Knebel broke Aroldis Chapman’s modern-era record for consecutiv­e games by a reliever with a strikeout at a season’s start, fanning a batter for the 38th straight game and closing out the win.

Knebel struck out Josh Bell on a foul tip leading off the ninth. The 25-year-old right-hander retired Elias Diaz and Andrew McCutchen on popouts, finishing a fourhitter for his 12th save in 15 chances.

• Angels 10, Yankees 5 — At New York: Albert Pujols lined a go-ahead single during a messy, four-run rally in the seventh inning and the Los Angeles Angels overcame Aaron Judge’s major league-leading 25th home run to beat the Yankees.

The Angels took advantage of three errors and two wild pitches — including a heater by Dellin Betances that sailed to the backstop — during a late surge. Los Angeles sent the AL East leaders to their eighth loss in nine games.

• Phillies 5, Cardinals 1 — At Philadelph­ia: Aaron Nola pitched shutout ball into the eighth inning, Freddy Galvis and Tommy Joseph homered, and the Phillies ended a five-game losing streak.

Joseph drove in three runs as Philadelph­ia, a major league-worst 23-48, won for just the second time in 15 games.

• Rangers 11, Blue Jays 4 — At Arlington, Texas: Carlos Gomez homered twice to drive in five runs, and Mike Napoli and Robinson Chirinos also homered for the Rangers off Marcus Stroman (7-4).

Gomez has five homers in his six games since returning from the disabled list last week after missing a month with a right hamstring strain. His three-run shot in the third ricocheted off the left-field foul pole and put Texas up 6-0, then he added a two-run homer in the seventh off reliever Cesar Valdez.

• Cubs 11, Marlins 1 — At Miami: Addison Russell had four hits, including a home run, to pace the Chicago Cubs past the Marlins.

Kris Bryant had a threerun homer, Willson Contreras added a two-run shot and Ian Happ also had four hits and drove in a pair for the Cubs, who have won four of five. Russell had two RBIs.

• Indians 6, Orioles 3 — At Baltimore: Austin Jackson had three hits and three RBIs, Erik Gonzalez homered and the Cleveland Indians won three of four from the Orioles to complete a 7-1 road trip that began with a four-game sweep of Minnesota.

Cleveland has scored at least five runs and reached double figures in hits over nine consecutiv­e games, and homered in 11 straight.

• Mariners 9, Tigers 6 — At Seattle: Robinson Cano hit a grand slam and a two-run homer, Andrew Moore pitched seven effective innings to win in his big league debut, and the Seattle Mariners held off the Detroit Tigers 9-6 on Thursday night for their fifth straight victory.

Cano’s seventh-inning grand slam off Francisco Rodriguez, his 13th homer, put the Mariners up 9-3. His tworun shot off Daniel Norris (45) in the third staked Moore to a 5-1 lead.

• Dodgers 6, Mets 3 — At Los Angeles: Joc Pederson hit a go-ahead home run in the seventh and the Los Angeles Dodgers used the long ball again to power past the New York Mets 6-3 on Thursday night and complete a four-game sweep.
