Anderson, Turner lead Dodgers to win

-

Tyler Anderson pitched eight shutout innings, Trea Turner had three RBIs in his first game against his former team and the Los Angeles Dodgers routed the Washington Nationals 10-1 on Monday night.

Anderson retired his first 16 batters before César Hernández's one-out double in the sixth.

Turner, who played with Washington for seven seasons before his trade to Los Angeles last July, extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a two-run single in the sixth. He also had an RBI groundout in his first at-bat.

The Dodgers have won eight of nine and own the best record in the National League at 28-13. Washington fell to 5-16 at Nationals Park, the worst home record in the majors.

ORIOLES 6, YANKEES 4 >> Ramón Urías hit a tiebreakin­g homer in the sixth inning off Gerrit Cole and Baltimore withstood Aaron Judge's two home runs to beat the Yankees and send New York to its season-high third straight loss. Urías started Baltimore's four-run third with a double down the left field line, then snapped a 4-all tie by lining an 0-1 fastball to the short porch in right field off Cole (4-1).

PIRATES 2, ROCKIES 1 >> Ke'Bryan Hayes had three hits and scored the tiebreakin­g run on Yoshi Tsutsugo's infield single in the eighth inning as Pittsburgh beat Colorado. Hayes singled to lead off the eighth against Tyler Kinley (1-1), stole second base and advanced to third on Daniel Vogelbach's groundout. Tsutsugo then beat out a slow bouncer to second base, enabling Hayes to score.

David Bednar (1-0) escaped a first-and-second jam in the eighth to keep the game tied at 1. He followed with a scoreless ninth.

Josh VanMeter added two hits for the Pirates, who had lost three straight games. Connor Joe had two hits for the Rockies.

CUBS 7, REDS 4 >> Ian Happ and Patrick Wisdom hit three-run homers and Chicago beat Cincinnati despite two home runs by Aristides Aquino.

Happ drove in Seiya Suzuki with a fourth-inning double before Wisdom hit his team-leading 10th homer.

With Chicago holding a 4-3 lead with two outs in the seventh, Happ drove the first pitch he saw from reliever Luis Cessa into the rightfield bleachers.
