August 04, 2017
Washington 4, Chi. Cubs 2
Daniel Murphy continues to own Chicago Cubs' pitching.
Cincinnati 3, St. Louis 2
The rebuilding process for the last-place Cincinnati Reds is far from over, but contributions from some of the young players they are pinning their hopes on provided a glimmer of hope for fans on Friday night.
Detroit 5, Baltimore 2
Justin Upton is making a habit out of hitting grand slams this week.
Pittsburgh 10, San Diego 6
Most of the more than 32,000 people who showed up at PNC Park on Friday night stuck it out not only during a rain-delayed start of more than two hours but also while the hometown Pittsburgh Pirates appeared for a time to be headed toward a loss.
LA Dodgers 6, NY Mets 0
The major league-leading Los Angeles Dodgers welcomed another ace pitcher to the team Friday, when Yu Darvish -- acquired in a last-minute deadline deal on Monday with the Texas Rangers -- threw seven scoreless innings in his first start for his new team, a 6-0 victory over the New York Mets at Citi Field.
Milwaukee 2, Tampa Bay 0
Rookie pitcher Brandon Woodruff was superb in his major league debut, and Orlando Arcia did everything else for the Milwaukee Brewers, scoring both runs in a 2-0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night at Tropicana Field.
Cleveland 7, NY Yankees 2
On a night when the Cleveland Indians scored seven runs, their best play came on defense.
Boston 3, Chi. White Sox 2
Hanley Ramirez's oblique injury turned out to be a real bummer for the Chicago White Sox.
Atlanta 5, Miami 3
Giancarlo Stanton hit two homers totaling an estimated 901 feet, but the mammoth blasts didn't pay off for the Miami Marlins against the Atlanta Braves.
Houston 16, Toronto 7
In the event that a three-game offensive slump altered opinions about the Houston Astros' credentials, they burnished their reputation Friday night.
Minnesota 8, Texas 4
The fans waited and gave him another standing ovation as he went out for a postgame TV interview. Teammates Ervin Santana, Miguel Sano and Adalberto Mejia snuck up behind him with buckets of ice and water.
Seattle 5, Kansas City 2
Jarrod Dyson knew with James Paxton pitching that the Seattle Mariners had a good chance to win.
Colorado 4, Philadelphia 3
The Colorado Rockies got a huge lift from their bullpen and a late hit from DJ LeMahieu on Friday night and came back to beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-3.
LA Angels 8, Oakland 6
No one is calling the Los Angeles Angels' offense a juggernaut, not when the team has scored three runs or fewer 53 times in 110 games.
Arizona 2, San Francisco 1
Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt was coming off one of the best games of his life when he faced the San Francisco Giants and ace Madison Bumgarner on Friday at AT&T Park.
