Giants fall to Dodgers
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 11 - 04 - 2016

Charlie Culberson doubled with one out in the 10th inning to score Corey Seager as the Los Angeles Dodgers completed a late rally to secure a 3-2 victory Saturday over the San Francisco Giants in a rain-delayed game.
The second consecutive extra-inning affair between the National League West rivals didn't have the dramatics of Friday's no-hit bid by LA rookie Ross Stripling, but it ended better for the Dodgers, who won in San Francisco for just the third time in their last 13 visits.
After the Dodgers scored in the top of the ninth to tie the score at 2 and force extra innings, Seager lined a one-out double against the sixth Giants pitcher, right-hander George Kontos (0-1), to trigger the winning uprising in the 10th.
Yankees 8, Tigers 4: Carlos Beltran and Alex Rodriguez hit home runs while CC Sabathia crafted his way through six-plus innings Saturday to help the New York Yankees beat Detroit 8-4, ending the Tigers' season-starting winning streak at three games.
Sabathia (1-0) allowed three runs and four hits in six-plus innings in his first start since missing the postseason last year while undergoing alcohol rehabilitation.
Sabathia left the bases loaded in his one dangerous inning, the fourth, and was removed from freezing weather after giving up a leadoff single in the seventh.
Rodriguez gave the Yankees a 1-0 lead in the first with his 688th career home run and Beltran hit a two-run homer in the fifth.
Red Sox 8, Blue Jays 4: Dustin Pedroia and Hanley Ramirez each had two RBIs as Boston defeated Toronto.
Jose Bautista hit his first two homers of the season and had four RBIs but it was not enough for the Blue Jays, who have lost four in a row.
The homers accounted for all four runs scored against right-hander Rick Porcello (1-0), who allowed seven hits and one walk while striking out seven over six innings in his season debut.
Toronto right-hander R.A. Dickey (1-1) allowed seven runs (six earned) in five innings on eight hits and two walks. The knuckleballer struck out nine.
Reds 5, Pirates 1: Eugenio Suarez hit a two-run homer and Raisel Iglesias allowed a run in five innings as Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh.
The Pirates went 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position with a chance to improve to 5-0 for the first time since 1983.
Iglesias (1-0) earned his first victory of the season in his second start, allowing eight hits over 5-2/3 innings but managing to prevent any extended Pittsburgh rallies.
White Sox 7, Indians 3: Avisail Garcia went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBIs, and Chicago rallied for a win over Cleveland.
Phillies 1, Mets 0: Right-hander Vince Velasquez struck out a career-high nine batters in his Philadelphia Phillies' debut and Ryan Howard blasted an opposite-field home run to provide the game's only offense as the Phillies earned their first win of the season.
Astros 6, Brewers 4: Colby Rasmus hit two home runs and Tyler White added a third as the Houston Astros beat the Milwaukee Brewers.
Royals 7, Twins 0: Mike Moustakas, Lorenzo Cain and Kendrys Morales homered, while Ian Kennedy pitched 6-2/3 scoreless innings as the Kansas City Royals topped the Minnesota Twins.
Elsewhere it was: Cardinals 12, Braves 2; Cubs 4, Diamondbacks 2; Padres 16, Rockies 3; Rangers 4, Angels 1; Mariners 6, Athletics 1. — Agencies
