ATLANTA (AP) - Cole Hamels combined with two relievers on a five-hitter and Shane Victorino capped a big series with three hits, including his first homer, to lead the Philadelphia Phillies past the Atlanta Braves 3-0 on Sunday.
Hamels (1-1) gave up four hits with one walk and eight strikeouts in seven innings to beat Derek Lowe (1-2), who was almost as strong. The right-hander allowed seven hits and two runs in seven innings.
Victorino has five straight multihit games, including four hits in the Phillies' 10-2 win over the Braves on Saturday. He had nine hits as the Phillies took two of three in the series.
Ryan Madson pitched the eighth and Jose Contreras worked a perfect ninth for his second save.
Cardinals 6, Giants 1
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - David Freese went 3 for 4 with a homer and three RBIs and Kyle Lohse allowed one run in eight innings to help St. Louis snap a three-game losing streak.
Matt Holliday scored the go-ahead run and added an RBI single in his first game since undergoing an appendectomy April 1 to help the Cardinals win for just the third time in nine games this season. Skip Schumaker added a two-run double in a three-run sixth that gave the Cardinals the lead for good.
Barry Zito (0-1) walked five batters, including two who later scored, and the Giants were unable to complete their first three-game sweep of the Cardinals since 2001.
Lohse (1-1) allowed five hits and handed a big lead over to Trever Miller, who finished with a scoreless ninth.
Diamondbacks 10, Reds 8
PHOENIX (AP) - Chris Young hit the decisive three-run homer and Stephen Drew had four hits and three RBIs, helping Arizona rally twice to beat Cincinnati and take two of three from the Reds.
Drew's RBI single tied it at 7 in the eighth inning, then Young drove a 3-2 pitch from Nick Masset (0-2) into the seats in left-center to put Arizona ahead for only the second time all day.
The Reds led 5-0 after 2 1/2 innings before Arizona scored five in the fifth off Mike Leake, the last three on Ryan Roberts' homer, to go up 6-5.
Jonny Gomes' two-run homer off Aaron Heilman in the seventh put Cincinnati back on top 7-6. Heilman (1-0) allowed two runs in three innings to get the win.
J.J. Putz got through a shaky ninth inning to earn his third save in three opportunities. Brewers 6, Cubs 5
MILWAUKEE (AP) - Pinch-hitter Casey McGehee delivered a two-run homer with two outs in the eighth inning and the Brewers rallied to beat the Chicago Cubs.
Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun each hit a two-run homer for Milwaukee, which has won five of six after an 0-4 start.
McGehee had been mired in a 3-for-22 slump this homestand and didn't get the start. Cubs reliever Kerry Wood (0-1) walked Yuniesky Betancourt to open the eighth and Betancourt reached second on a sacrifice bunt.
After George Kottaras struck out, McGehee hit the second fastball he saw into the Cubs' bullpen in right.
Chicago's Aramis Ramirez drove in three runs on three doubles, but the bullpen couldn't hold on.
Kameron Loe (1-0) got the win despite giving up an RBI groundout.
Rockies 6, Pirates 5
PITTSBURGH (AP) - Seth Smith drew a bases-loaded walk in the seventh inning and Colorado kept up its strong start with a win over the Pirates, giving the Rockies three wins in four games of their first road series this season.
Smith, who had an RBI single in Colorado's four-run first, drew his two-out walk from Mike Crotta (0-1) in the seventh.
Jose Lopez hit a three-run homer in the first for the Rockies, who ended last season by dropping their last eight road games.
Jhoulys Chacin (2-0) allowed four earned runs and seven hits in six innings. Colorado's starters are 5-0 this season. Huston Street pitched a perfect ninth for his fourth save.
Astros 7, Marlins 1
HOUSTON (AP) - J.A. Happ pitched four-hit ball into the eighth inning and drove in two runs with a double for the Astros.
Hunter Pence, Carlos Lee and Matt Downs also knocked in runs for the Astros, who finished with a season-high 16 hits, six for extra bases.
Happ (1-1) allowed four hits in 7 2-3 innings, only two after the Marlins took a 1-0 lead in the first inning. He put Houston ahead to stay in the fourth with a two-run double off Florida starter Anibal Sanchez (0-1).
Sanchez came in with a 1.54 ERA in two prior starts at Minute Maid Park, but gave up six runs on 13 hits in 4 2-3 innings.
Nationals 7, Mets 3, 11 innings
NEW YORK (AP) - Ivan Rodriguez hit a tiebreaking RBI single in the 11th inning and the Washington Nationals rallied late to beat the Mets.
Laynce Nix followed with a three-run homer off Blaine Boyer (0-2), the Mets' fifth reliever.
Rodriguez's hit got past second baseman Daniel Murphy, who pinch hit for Brad Emaus in the ninth after the Mets' bullpen blew a 3-1 lead in the eighth. Right fielder Lucas Duda, whose misplay of a flyball in the eighth led to the tying runs, scooped up the ball, but his throw to the plate was inaccurate and pinch-runner Wilson Ramos scored easily.
Drew Storen (1-1) pitched a scoreless 10th for Washington
The Mets wasted another fine start by Chris Young, who allowed one run and one hit in seven innings.
The Mets struck out 17 times in the game.
Padres 7, Dodgers 2
SAN DIEGO (AP) - Aaron Harang pitched six sharp innings, and Ryan Ludwick broke out of a slump with a go-ahead homer and Nick Hundley added a two-run shot in the Padres' win.
Cameron Maybin hit a solo home run and had an RBI triple as the Padres avoided a three-game sweep.
Ludwick was 2 for 23 this year before he connected off John Ely (0-1), recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque before the game, leading off the fourth inning.
Harang (2-0) turned in his second solid performance, allowing two runs - one earned - on three hits. The first run he allowed came without the benefit of a hit while the second scored on Harang's throwing error.
Harang and three relievers combined on a three-hitter.
