NL: Phillies sweep Expos DH, series



The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA - Tomas Perez hit a two-run double to help back another impressive outing by Brett Myers as the Philadelphia Phillies completed a doubleheader sweep of the Montreal Expos with a 4-1 victory Sunday.

Jose Mesa saved both games for the Phillies, who won 4-3 in the opener behind six strong innings from Randy Wolf and Ricky Ledee's two-run double. They swept the three-game series and have won four of five overall.

Giants 4, Rockies 0

SAN FRANCISCO - Barry Bonds hit a two-run double, and Kirk Rueter pitched into the eighth inning as the San Francisco Giants won their fifth straight, beating the Colorado Rockies. The Rockies hadn't been shut out in 82 games - the longest active streak in the majors. Colorado fell one game short of the franchise record for consecutive games without a shutout loss.

Astros 9, Cubs 3

CHICAGO - Lance Berkman and Morgan Ensberg homered as the Houston Astros kept Kerry Wood winless since April by beating the Chicago Cubs.

Coming off a 1-0 loss in 16 innings Saturday, the Astros broke a 23-inning scoreless drought with four runs in the fourth. Wood (4-4) failed for a sixth straight start to get his fifth win this season and the 50th of his career.

Diamondbacks 10, Padres 4

SAN DIEGO - Luis Gonzalez homered and drove in four runs for the second straight game, and Edgar Gonzalez won his major league debut as the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the San Diego Padres. Edgar Gonzalez (1-0), the youngest player in the majors at 20 years old, allowed three runs and 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings. He was called up from Triple-A Tucson earlier in the day.

Shea Hillenbrand went 0-for-3 with a walk in his debut with the Diamondbacks after being traded Thursday by the Boston Red Sox for pitcher Byung-Hyun Kim. Arizona designated five-time All-Star third baseman Matt Williams for assignment Sunday following Hillenbrand's arrival.

Cardinals 5, Pirates 4

ST. LOUIS - Edgar Renteria hit a tiebreaking, two-run single in the seventh inning as the St. Louis Cardinals snapped a three-game losing streak with a victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. J.D. Drew homered for the second straight game for the Cardinals, who avoided a three-game sweep.

Brewers 4, Dodgers 3

LOS ANGELES - Richie Sexson hit a tiebreaking home run in the seventh inning and Wes Helms also homered as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Sexson also had a sacrifice fly, helping the Brewers take two of three to win consecutive road series for the second time this year.

Mets 10, Braves 4

NEW YORK - Jeromy Burnitz capped an eight-run sixth inning with a three-run homer as the New York Mets rallied to beat the Atlanta Braves and take two of three games from the NL East leaders. The Mets finally flashed the type of offense they thought they would have. Despite missing Mike Piazza, Mo Vaughn and Roberto Alomar, all sidelined by injuries, the Mets reached double digits in runs for the first time since last Sept. 8 against Philadelphia.
