Rockies Embarrass Arizona – MLB Roundup

UNDATED (AP) — Sonny Gray had the longest outing of his major league career Monday in Texas, while Yu Darvish made his earliest trip to the showers.

Gray tossed a three-hitter in his first complete game as the Oakland Athletics blanked the Rangers 4-0. Texas got only one runner to third base against the right-hander, who improved to 1-1.

Darvish was lifted after just 3 1/3 innings and ran his home winless streak to nine starts, allowing four runs and six hits.

Josh Donaldson hit a two-run single for the A's, who took over first place in the AL West.

Also in the majors:

— Alejandro De Aza (ah-lah-HAHN'-droh day AH'-zah) hit a two-run homer, Alexei Ramirez lined a two-run triple and Marcus Semien added a two-run double in the Chicago White Sox's 7-3 win over Tampa Bay. Rookie Jose Abreu (ah-BRAY'-oo) collected his major league-leading 32nd RBI while going 2-for-4.

— Mike Trout had a go-ahead RBI single in the eighth inning and Raul Ibanez (ih-BAHN'-yehz) added a two-run triple to lead the Los Angeles Angels to a 6-3 victory over Cleveland. Losing pitcher Justin Masterson is still seeking his first win since last Aug. 21.

— Milwaukee erased a 3-0 deficit before Khris Davis hit an RBI triple and scored an insurance run in the 12th inning of the Brewers' 5-3 win at St. Louis. Matt Holliday and Allen Craig hit solo homers in the sixth to give the Cardinals a three-run cushion, but the Brewers still improved to a major league-best 19-7.

— Troy Tulowitzki was the hitting star in Colorado's 8-5 win over Arizona, going 3-for-3 with two walks, a homer, two doubles and three RBIs. Justin Morneau added a two-run shot to extend his hitting streak to 12 games.

— Rene Rivera supplied a three-run homer and a two-run double in San Diego's 6-4 triumph in San Francisco. Tyson Ross was able to even his record at 3-3 after the Padres' bullpen held the Giants to one hit over 3 2/3 scoreless innings.

— The Chicago Cubs were rained out in Cincinnati. No makeup date was announced, but Reds manager Bryan Price says the game will not be made up during this series.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Washington Nationals have played most of this season without third baseman Ryan Zimmerman, catcher Wilson Ramos (RAH'-mohs) and pitcher Doug Fister. They'll also be without another huge piece of their lineup for a while.

ESPN reports that Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper is going to be sidelined at least until July because of surgery on his left thumb. The network says Harper will have the operation Tuesday, four days after injuring the thumb on a headfirst slide into third base. The two-time All-Star is hitting .289 with one homer and nine RBIs this season.

PHOENIX (AP) — The Arizona Diamondbacks have acquired right-hander Lucas Harrell from the Houston Astros for a player to be named.

The 28-year-old Harrell went 0-3 with a 9.49 ERA in three starts with Houston this season after going 6-17 with a 5.86 earned run average last year.

Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson said Monday that Harrell will join Triple-A Reno for now.
