* Houston 6, at Arizona 4: Geoff Blum doubled in three runs and the Astros handed the Diamondbacks only their third home loss in 13 games. Max Scherzer, Arizona’s 2006 first-round draft pick, retired all 13 batters he faced, seven by strikeout, with a fastball that reached 98 mph. It was the most strikeouts by an Arizona pitcher in his big league debut.

* Colorado 3, at San Francisco 2: Chris Iannetta scored on a disputed seventh-inning balk by Tim Lincecum (4-1) and hit the first home run against the right-hander this year, a second-inning drive to help Aaron Cook (4-1) win his fourth consecutive start. Iannetta doubled to start the seventh inning.

* at Philadelphia 7, San Diego 4: Cole Hamels (3-3) gave up five hits and struck out six in 7 1/3 innings and the Phillies denied Greg Maddux (2-2) his 350th victory. Carlos Ruiz had a two-run double and pinch-hitter Greg Dobbs had a run-scoring double for the Phillies.
