Turner hits for cycle as Nationals rout Rockies

Trea Turner hit his second career cycle, Stephen Strasburg earned his major league-leading 13th win and the Washington Nationals routed the Colorado Rockies 11-1 Tuesday night.

Turner led off the first inning with homer, singled in the second and tripled leading off the fifth. After grounding into a double play in the sixth, he doubled home a run during Washington’s eight-run seventh.

It was the fourth cycle for the Nationals since relocating to Washington in 2005, half of them by Turner against the Rockies. He’s the 26th player to hit for multiple cycles.

Strasburg (13-4) pitched six innings for his sixth straight win as the Nationals kicked off a 10-game homestand. He allowed three hits and two walks while striking out eight. The right-hander is 10-1 with a 3.17 ERA over his past 12 starts. METS 5, PADRES 2 >> Robinson Canó hit three home runs, breaking loose from a season-long slump in a huge way and leading Jason Vargas and New York past San Diego. The 36-year-old Canó drove in all five runs and went 4 for 4. Vargas pitched one-hit ball for six scoreless innings, possibly enhancing his trade value. ROYALS 5, BRAVES 4 >> Lucas Duda came through with Kansas City’s first pinch-hit homer of the season to break a tie in the eighth inning, and the Royals held on for a victory over the first-place Braves. Alex Gordon also homered for the Royals and drove in two runs. Both starters — Atlanta’s Dallas Keuchel and Kansas City’s Danny Duffy — went six strong innings with double-digit strikeouts but didn’t factor in the decision. BLUE JAYS 2, INDIANS 1 (10) >> Justin Smoak tied the game with a homer in the ninth inning and knocked in the winning run with a two-out single in the 10th as Toronto beat Cleveland. Smoak got the winning hit off lefty Tyler Olson (1-1), scoring Eric Sogard.
