AROUND THE HORN

Cardinals: Alex Reyes’ return after a 20-month absence lasted just four innings. The 23-year-old RHP was put on the 10-day disabled list because of a strained muscle in his right side. Coming back from Tommy John surgery, Reyes was hurt on Wednesday when he allowed three hits over four scoreless innings at Milwaukee in his first big-league appearance since Sept. 29, 2016. The Cardinals recalled LHP Austin Gomber and RHP Mike Mayers from Memphis along with 1B Luke Voit. They optioned OF Tyler O’Neill and RHP John Gant to Triple-A Memphis.

Dodgers: Ace Clayton Kershaw was activated from the 10-day disabled list to start against the Phillies. Kershaw hadn’t appeared in a majorleague game since May 1. The three-time NL Cy Young winner was sidelined with left biceps tendinitis. Kershaw, 30, went 1-4 with a 2.86 ERA in his first seven starts. The Dodgers optioned reliever Pat Venditte to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Mariners: 2B Dee Gordon was activated off the 10-day disabled list and reinserted him into his customary leadoff spot against the Rangers. Infielder Gordon Beckham was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma to make room. Gordon still led the American League with 16 stolen bases entering the game despite missing time with the injury.

Athletics: Daniel Mengden allowed three runs over eight innings in a 7-3 victory over the Rays. Mengden (6-4) extended his scoreless streak to a careerhigh 25 innings before giving up three straight hits, including a two-run double by Wilson Ramos, in the ninth. It’s the longest streak by an A’s pitcher since former closer Sean Doolittle went 261⁄3 in 2014.

Phillies: Slugger Rhys Hoskins went on the 10-day DL with a broken jaw the team says likely will not need surgery. Hoskins could be back in a matter of weeks instead of months, manager Gabe Kapler said. Hoskins fouled a ball into his mouth Monday against the Dodgers.
