NATIONAL LEAGUE

Mets 6, Giants 4

Rookie Ike Davis and Rod Barajas both homered twice, with Barajas hitting his second of the night in the ninth inning Friday as New York beat San Francisco for its eighth straight home win.

Davis hit solo homers in the second and fourth innings for the first multihomer game of his major league career and did a 360 degree flip into the dugout to catch a foul ball to end the top of the ninth with runners at the corners.

Davis also started the winning rally, walking with one out in the bottom of the ninth against Sergio Romo (0-3). Barajas then hit a high drive down the left-field line for his ninth homer this season.

Cubs 14, Reds 7

Starlin Castro got awakened by a call to the majors on Friday and arrived in style, hitting a three-run homer in his first at-bat and driving in a record six runs during Chicago's victory over Cincinnati.

The 20-year-old became the youngest shortstop in Cubs history when he stepped onto the field. Then, he became a sensation. His homer off Homer Bailey (0-2) made him the sixth player in Cubs history to connect in his first at-bat. He added a bases-loaded triple, sliding headfirst into the record books with six RBIs, the most ever in a modern day debut - one more than the previous mark shared by four players.

Phillies 7, Braves 0

Forty-seven-year-old Jamie Moyer tossed a two-hitter to become the oldest player in major league history to throw a shutout, and the Phillies beat Atlanta.

The Phillies confirmed the feat by Moyer, who accomplished it at 47 years, 170 days old. Phil Niekro was the previous oldest at 46 years, 188 days when he tossed a four-hitter for the New York Yankees against Toronto on Oct. 6, 1986.

Moyer (4-2) struck out five and faced one batter over the minimum to earn his 262nd career victory.

Marlins 4, Nationals 2

Gaby Sanchez hit a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning and Florida snapped a three-game skid.

Pinch-hitter Bryan Petersen singled in his major league debut, starting the decisive rally against Brian Bruney (1-2). Petersen moved to second when Bruney fumbled Chris Coghlan's bunt attempt for an error and Sanchez followed with a looper to right-center, breaking a 2-all tie. After an intentional walk to Hanley Ramirez, Jorge Cantu's sacrifice fly made it 4-2.

Cardinals 4, Pirates 3

Yadier Molina doubled in the go-ahead run in the ninth inning with his fourth hit, and St. Louis took advantage of several Pittsburgh defensive lapses and a key baserunning mistake to beat the Pirates.

Joe Mather, pinch running in the ninth after Matt Holliday singled off Evan Meek (1-1) for his fourth hit, arrived well behind the throw as he tried to steal second on a pitchout, but managed to sneak his right hand in ahead of Aki Iwamura's tag. Molina followed with his double to the right-field wall.

Padres 7, Astros 0

Mat Latos struck out a career-high nine in eight shutout innings and Scott Hairston homered twice in San Diego's win over Houston.

Latos (2-3) allowed only two hits without a walk, and also drove in a run for the Padres, who snapped a five-game losing streak at Minute Maid Park.

AMERICAN LEAGUE

Rangers 4, Royals 1

C.J. Wilson pitched his second complete game and Vladimir Guerrero homered again to lead Texas to a victory over Kansas City, keeping reigning AL Cy Young winner Zack Greinke winless in 2010.

Guerrero homered on the first pitch leading off the second, his third consecutive at-bat over two games with a home run. That put the Rangers ahead to stay against Greinke (0-4), the right-hander who made his seventh start of the season.

Blue Jays 7, White Sox 4

Alex Gonzalez hit the tiebreaking three-run homer in the 12th inning, John Buck went deep twice and Toronto won its sixth straight, beating Chicago.

Gonzalez's shot off J.J. Putz (0-2) came after Vernon Wells walked with two outs and Lyle Overbay singled. He then drove a 1-2 fastball down the middle about 10 rows deep in left field for his ninth homer.
