Recap Roundups
September 11, 2015
Chi. Cubs 5, Philadelphia 1
Before Thursday night's game against the Chicago Cubs was rained out, the Philadelphia Phillies fired general manager Ruben Amaro Jr., often a focal point of the fans' discontent as the club plummeted in the standings in recent seasons.
Chi. Cubs 5, Philadelphia 1
Jake Arrieta pitched eight strong innings to run his personal winning streak to eight games as the Chicago Cubs beat the Philadelphia Phillies 5-1 in the opener of a double-header on Friday night.
Baltimore 14, Kansas City 8
The Baltimore Orioles have regularly wasted scoring chances in the last few weeks -- a big reason for their sudden slide. But they broke out of that slump in a big way in the eighth inning on Friday night.
Toronto 11, NY Yankees 5
Catcher Russell Martin described the Toronto Blue Jays' offense as being "one after another."
Toronto 11, NY Yankees 5
The race for first place in the American League East wound up getting an unscheduled night off.
Pittsburgh 6, Milwaukee 3
Chris Stewart often points to his head after he gets a hit and he was doing more pointing than normal Friday night.
Tampa Bay 8, Boston 4
Friday night offered a rare counterpoint to the many games that have gotten away from Tampa Bay Rays this year, as the Rays rallied for five runs in the eighth inning and handed the Boston Red Sox an 8-4 loss at Tropicana Field.
Cincinnati 4, St. Louis 2
Adam Duvall's two-run home run in the eighth inning lifted the Cincinnati Reds to a 4-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in the resumption of a suspended game Saturday afternoon at Great American Ball Park.
Cincinnati 4, St. Louis 2
John Lackey gave the St. Louis Cardinals just what they needed Friday night before rain suspended their game with the score tied 2-2 in the eighth inning at Great American Ball Park.
Miami 2, Washington 1
Right fielder Bryce Harper showered, changed and slipped out of the Washington Nationals' clubhouse before the media could ask him a single question.
NY Mets 5, Atlanta 1
Yoenis Cespedes was hitless in the series opener against the Atlanta Braves, but the center fielder earned the MVP chants from New York Mets fans on Friday night.
Texas 4, Oakland 0
In typical Colby Lewis fashion, the Texas Rangers right-hander was happier that his team registered a 4-0 win over the Oakland Athletics on Friday than the fact that he had a perfect game into the eighth inning.
Chi. Cubs 7, Philadelphia 3
Left fielder Kyle Schwarber homered twice and drove in three runs as the Chicago Cubs completed a double-header sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies with a 7-3 victory in Game Two on Friday night.
Minnesota 6, Chi. White Sox 2
Minnesota Twins third baseman Trevor Plouffe took a big swing, heard contact and worried he broke his bat.
Arizona 12, LA Dodgers 4
All it took for Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Robbie Ray to break a seven-game losing streak was some support. A whole lot of support.
LA Angels 3, Houston 2
Jered Weaver would be the first to admit his fastball isn't exactly fast anymore. His pitch selection usually comes down to one of three pitches -- slow, slower and slowest.
Colorado 4, Seattle 2
After starting pitcher Chad Bettis turned in one of the best starts of his career and rookie catcher Dustin Garneau provided the big hit with a tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning, the Colorado Rockies were one out from finishing off the Seattle Mariners on Friday night.
San Francisco 9, San Diego 1
In the grand scheme of things, the San Francisco Giants' 9-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday night made a very small dent in the Los Angeles Dodgers' very large lead in the National League West.
