Wind doesn't rattle Myers
CHICAGO - It was a warm day at Wrigley Field with a stiff wind blowing out to right field and the starting pitchers with a combined ERA of nearly 12.
CHICAGO - It was a warm day at Wrigley Field with a stiff wind blowing out to right field and the starting pitchers with a combined ERA of nearly 12.
A day for the hitters, right? It didn't turn out that way.
Brett Myers outdueled Doug Davis and the Houston Astros beat the Chicago Cubs, 3-1, on Wednesday to finish a three-game sweep.
"I used my head a little bit better," Myers said. "I have a pretty good feel pitching against these guys. I've faced them enough that I know how I want to pitch them. Whether it works or not, that's a different story."
Houston's Michael Bourn hit a go-ahead two-run single in the seventh, breaking a tie game.
Myers (2-4) won his sixth straight decision against the Cubs, improving to 12-3 with a 2.12 ERA in his career against the Astros' NL Central rivals.
"This is a boost for us," Myers said. "We played really good baseball the whole series."
Davis (0-4) matched Myers for six innings but was responsible for the decisive runs when reliever Sean Marshall gave up Bourn's single with two outs in the seventh. Davis allowed nine hits and struck out five in 61/3 innings, his longest outing since April 24 last season.
"They played well all series," Marshall said. "They pitched well. The relievers pitched well. They got some timely hits and we ended up on the short end of the stick."
Jason Michaels hit a solo homer, and Bourn, Clint Barmes, Carlos Lee, and Jeff Keppinger had two hits apiece for the Astros. Bourn stole two bases, increasing his NL-leading total to 22.
Pitching for the third straight day, Astros closer Mark Melancon worked around a lead-off walk in the ninth, saving his fourth game in six chances this season
"That was really big," Michaels said. "This is a tough place to play, and to come in and get a sweep, that's big."

Reds 4, Brewers 3
CINCINNATI - Jay Bruce and Joey Votto hit two-run homers during Cincinnati's late comeback, and Francisco Cordero got his 300th career save, securing the win over Milwaukee.
The struggling Reds won for only the fourth time in their last 15 games, relying on their two best hitters - and their reliable closer - to pull it out.
Bruce hit his 17th homer in the seventh inning, ending Shaun Marcum's shutout bid. Votto added a two-run shot in the eighth off Kameron Loe (2-5), who hit Brandon Phillips with two outs to bring up the NL's most valuable player.
Nick Masset (1-3) pitched out of a threat in the eighth. Cordero pitched a perfect ninth, becoming the 22d reliever to achieve 300 saves, tying Bruce Sutter at the mark.

Braves 4, Padres 3
ATLANTA - Tommy Hanson went six strong innings on a sweltering night and center fielder Jordan Schafer made an outstanding catch for the final out, leading Atlanta past San Diego to prevent a Padres sweep.
Freddie Freeman drove in two runs and Martin Prado homered to pace the Braves.
Hanson (6-4) allowed just three hits, giving up both runs on Kyle Phillips' two-run homer in the second. Three relievers finished up, with Craig Kimbrel escaping a drive to the wall in the ninth for his 16th save in 20 chances.

Pirates 9, Mets 3
NEW YORK - Kevin Correia became the first eight-game winner in the majors and pesky Pittsburgh scratched out five infield singles in a five-run seventh inning to beat New York.
Andrew McCutchen made a dazzling catch in deep right center and Correia (8-4) pitched six poised innings to help the Pirates improve to 17-14 on the road - matching last season's win total.
Pittsburgh was a major- league-worst 17-64 away from home last year, but this season has brought quite a turnaround under new manager Clint Hurdle.

PHOENIX - Justin Upton's bloop single to right field with two outs in the bottom of the ninth drove in the winning run in Arizona's victory over Florida.
Willie Bloomquist led off the ninth against Clay Hensley (0-2) with an infield single. Hensley struck out pinch-hitter Sean Burroughs then left with what appeared to be a shoulder injury. Burke Badenhop relieved and Bloomquist hustled to third base on a groundout by Ryan Roberts. After a walk, Upton ended the game with his hit.

Giants 7, Cardinals 5
ST. LOUIS - An extra-inning game made longer when sections of two light standards at Busch Stadium failed with two outs in the bottom of the 11th inning finally ended after the lights returned more than 15 minutes later - and San Francisco closer Brian Wilson got St. Louis' Allen Craig to groundout on the first pitch.
The Giants were leading 7-5 and the Cardinals had a runner on first against Wilson with a 2-1 count on Craig when more than half of two sections of the lights to the right of home plate went out.
