DETROIT – James Shields and Danny Duffy were too much for the Detroit Tigers’ offense. Shields allowed three hits in seven scoreless innings and was part of a combined four-hit shutout in Kansas City’s 3-0 win over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night to give the Royals a sweep of a day-night doubleheader. Kansas City won the first game 2-1 as Duffy took a no-hitter into the sixth inning and pitched a combined two-hitter. “Huge day for us. Shields came back and, basically, matched the outing that Duffy had,” said Eric Hosmer, who homered in each game. Royals pitching held the Tigers to a run and six hits combined in the two games. “You play 18 innings against a team like that and give up one run, you’re doing something special,” Kansas City manager Ned Yost said. Tigers manager Jim Leyland said he isn’t worried about his AL Central-leading club. “It’s not a concern. We got what we got. It’s pretty simple,” he said. “Both teams got great pitching, and we didn’t must enough offense.” The Royals gained two games on Detroit to move within 6 1/2 games of the Tigers. “We wanted to come in here and make a statement against these guys,” Yost said. Shields (8-8) won his fourth game in his past five starts. He walked four and struck out one. “Tonight I was pounding the strike zone but just missing with some of my pitches,” Shields said. “ ... I’ve been pitching well all season. I’ve got a lot of quality starts. That’s what I care about, not wins and losses.” Duffy (1-0) beat Justin Verlander in the opener. Duffy was called up from Triple-A Omaha to make his second big league start of the season, and didn’t allow a hit until Cabrera’s hard-hit, two out single in the sixth. “I was glad that they finally got one, honestly, because I just wanted to pitch,” said Duffy, who underwent Tommy John surgery. “I wanted to protect this arm.” Kelvin Herrera replaced Duffy in the seventh and retired the side in order. Aaron Crow worked the eighth and allowed Santiago’s pinch-hit home run leading off the inning. Crow got the next three batters. Verlander (12-9) allowed two runs and seven hits in eight innings. He struck out five and didn’t walk a batter. Kansas City made it 2-0 on consecutive doubles leading off the seventh by Justin Maxwell and Emilio Bonifacio.
ELSEWHERE IN THE AL RAYS 5, BLUE JAYS 4: At St. Petersburg, Fla., Jose Lobaton hit a game-ending triple with one out in the ninth inning, lifting Tampa Bay to its third straight victory. Lobaton’s triple came off Aaron Loup (4-6) Yunel Escobar walked. Lobaton had three hits. Fernando Rodney (5-3) gave up two hits to start the ninth, but worked out of the jam. YANKEES 10, RED SOX 3: At Boston, Alfonso Soriano drove in four more runs and Andy Pettitte avoided his first-inning troubles to lead New York over AL East-leading Boston. The Yankees won for the fifth time in six games and sent the Red Sox to their third consecutive loss. With Tampa Bay’s victory over Toronto, Boston’s lead in the
division was trimmed to one game. Soriano was 3 for 4 with a hit-by-pitch and a three-run homer in the third that made it 6-0. He has 13 hits and 18 RBIs in his last four games. MARINERS 3, RANGERS 1: At Arlington, Texas, Kyle Seager snapped a career-worst 0-for21 slump with a go-ahead two-run homer and Seattle beat the AL West-leading Rangers. Hisashi Iwakuma (11-6) struck out eight and allowed one run in seven innings. Derek Holland pitched two-hit ball with six strikeouts over seven scoreless innings for Texas before Neal Cotts (4-2), whose 0.93 ERA was the lowest among American League relievers, walked Nick Franklin. Seager then lined a shot into the Rangers bullpen in right-center field, his 18th homer of the season but first in 13 games. Justin Smoak homered in the ninth for Seattle. WHITE SOX 5, TWINS 2: At Minneapolis, Adam Dunn hit his 28th home run and Jose Quintana tossed six sharp innings to lead the Chicago White Sox over the Twins. Quintana (7-4) scattered six hits over 6 2-3 innings, giving up two runs and striking out seven. Jeff Keppinger also homered to help Chicago snap its season-worst, 10-game road losing streak.
INTERLEAGUE ROCKIES 6, ORIOLES 3: At Baltimore, Colorado hit four home runs, including a tiebreaking, two-run shot by Wilin Rosario in the seventh inning, and the Rockies beat the Orioles to extend Baltimore’s losing streak to four games. Charlie Culberson, Charlie Blackmon and Todd Helton also homered for the Rockies, who have won six of seven. It was Culberson’s first major league home run in 55 at-bats. Juan Nicasio (7-6) allowed two runs, four hits and four walks over six innings to earn his first win in five starts.
NATIONAL LEAGUE DODGERS 4, PHILLIES 0: At Philadelphia, Zack Greinke pitched three-hit ball into the eighth inning and Hanley Ramirez homered to lead the streaking Los Angeles Dodgers over new manager Ryne Sandberg and the slumping Phillies. Ramirez’s two-run homer in the fourth was all the offense Greinke (11-3) needed to lead Los Angeles to its season-best ninth straight win and 18th victory in its last 19 road games. The Dodgers are 41-8 since June 22. PIRATES 6, DIAMONDBACKS 2: At Pittsburgh, Jose Tabata hit a two-run homer and rookie Gerrit Cole pitched six solid innings to send Pittsburgh past Arizona. Tabata’s drive was his fourth of the season and came off J.J. Putz in the eighth inning, putting the NL Central leaders ahead by four runs. Tabata connected a day after he came off the bench and had three hits in a 12inning loss at St. Louis. CUBS 7, CARDINALS 0: At Chicago, Jake Arrieta threw seven sharp innings and Nate Schierholtz drove in three runs as Chicago shut down St. Louis. Arrieta (1-0) allowed two hits and struck out seven for his first win in two starts with the Cubs. The right-hander was acquired from Baltimore in a July 2 trade. The Cubs snapped a four-game skid and are 7-7 this season against the Cardinals, who fell three games behind firstplace Pittsburgh in the NL Central. St. Louis has dropped six of nine overall. BRAVES 3, NATIONALS 2, 10 INNINGS: At Atlanta, Justin Upton homered in the 10th inning to lift Atlanta over Washington again. Upton’s 23rd of the season to left-center came on a 2-2 pitch from Ian Krol (1-1). Scott Downs (2-0) pitched a scoreless inning for the Braves, who stretched their NL East lead over the second-place Nationals to 15½ games. GIANTS 14, MARLINS 10: At Miami, Hunter Pence hit two doubles, a triple and drove in five runs to power San Francisco past Miami. Hector Sanchez hit a three-run homer, Pablo Sandoval had four hits and three RBIs, and Brandon Belt had four hits and scored four runs for the Giants, who set season highs for runs and hits (19). Justin Ruggiano homered twice and drove in four runs for the Marlins. Christian Yelich and Placido Polanco each had three hits. BREWERS 7, REDS 6: At Milwaukee, Jonathan Lucroy hit a two-run homer off Aroldis Chapman in the bottom of the ninth inning to give Milwaukee the win over Cincinnati. Jean Segura sparked the winning rally when he beat out a leadoff chopper to shortstop for his third hit. Lucroy then drove a 1-2 pitch to left for his 17th homer, snapping Cincinnati’s five-game winning streak.
