Giants' Cain tops Nats with his arm and bat
SAN FRANCISCO - Matt Cain overpowered Washington with 11 strikeouts in his first complete game of the season and also hit an RBI double that helped San Francisco beat the Nationals, 3-1, on Wednesday for their sixth win in eight games.
SAN FRANCISCO - Matt Cain overpowered Washington with 11 strikeouts in his first complete game of the season and also hit an RBI double that helped San Francisco beat the Nationals, 3-1, on Wednesday for their sixth win in eight games.
Brandon Crawford had a tiebreaking RBI triple in the seventh and later scored an insurance run to help the first-place Giants win their third straight series.
Yunesky Maya delivered the best performance of his career but remained winless in eight career starts as the Nationals could muster only an RBI double by Rick Ankiel in the seventh.
Cain (5-4) and Maya were strong early, with the game remaining scoreless until the bottom of the sixth inning.
That's when the Giants came through with back-to-back, one-out doubles by Eli Whiteside and Cain. The hit was just the third in 27 at-bats this season for Cain and his first RBI in exactly one year. The Giants were unable to add on as Maya got Freddy Sanchez to ground out with runners on second and third.
The Nationals answered in the bottom half when Mike Morse hit a leadoff single and later scored on Ankiel's two-out double. It was just the fifth run the Nats have scored for Maya in his eight big-league starts. Maya allowed one run and four hits in six innings and remained winless.
The Giants took the lead back in the bottom half of the seventh when Crawford hit a two-out, RBI triple off Sean Burnett (1-3) and then scored on Whiteside's single.
That proved to be more than enough for Cain, who improved to 16-0 over the last two years when getting at least three runs of support. He allowed five hits and one walk in his 13th career complete game, needing just 110 pitches.
Cain was dominating from the start, with the only hit he allowed in the first five innings coming on Danny Espinosa's bunt with two outs in the second. The Nationals got their first clean hit with two outs in the sixth when Ian Desmond lined a single to left-center.
But Washington was unable to generate any threats against Cain, who struck out the side in order in the fourth inning against the middle of the Nationals lineup.

CINCINNATI - Carlos Pena and Aramis Ramirez hit home runs on consecutive pitches in the fourth inning to back Ryan Dempster's pitching and Chicago snapped an eight-game losing streak.
Dempster (5-5) went six innings for his fourth win in his last five decisions this season, and first win in five decisions as a visitor at the ballpark he called home in 2002 and 2003.
The righthander allowed three hits and one run with a walk and eight strikeouts.
Kerry Wood and Sean Marshall each pitched a scoreless inning before Carlos Marmol pitched the ninth for his 11th save.

Astros 4, Cardinals 1
HOUSTON - Houston's Bud Norris took a no-hitter into the seventh and teamed with Mark Melancon to hold St. Louis to two hits.
Norris (4-4) pitched eight scoreless innings, allowing only former Astro Lance Berkman's solo homer with two outs. The blast on the fifth pitch of the at-bat sailed just over the glove of Hunter Pence and into the stands in right field.
The 26-year-old, in his second full season in the majors, relied on fastballs thrown from 90 to 95 m.p.h mixed with sliders and change-ups to keep the Cardinals off balance.
Melancon yielded a two-out double to Albert Pujols in the ninth before retiring Berkman for his sixth save.
