Adrian Gonzalez ends power drought
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:24 pm ET) Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez went 3 for 3 with a double and his fifth home run of the season Saturday against the Cardinals. He added two walks and three RBI in the game.

It was Gonzalez's first extra base hit since May 10, ending a power drought that spanned 11 games and 40 at-bats. He pushed his batting average to .316 with the three-hit performance.

Jake Peavy bounces back with complete game win
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(11:17 pm ET) White Sox starter Jake Peavy, who took the loss his previous start on May 19, surrendering four runs in six innings, bounced back with a complete game victory Saturday against the Marlins.

Peavy (6-2) pitched eight scoreless innings before serving up a one-out, game-tying solo home run to Derek Dietrich in the ninth inning to break his shutout. His offense backed him up with a walkoff single in the bottom of the frame. Peavy permitted one run on six hits and two walks while striking out five in a 2-1 win -- his longest outing of the season.

Peavy has allowed two runs or fewer in three of his last four starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Thursday on the road against the Cubs. He went 1-1 with a 0.59 ERA in two starts against the Cubs last season, including a complete game.
Domonic Brown collects ninth home run
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:14 pm ET) Phillies left fielder Domonic Brown hit his ninth home run of the season Saturday as the Phillies beat the Cardinals, 5-3. Brown was 2 for 4 with two RBI, adding his seventh double of the season to the second-inning solo home run.

Brown is 8 for 20 with two home runs during his current five-game hitting streak, pushing his line up to .262/.301/.471 in 172 at-bats this year.

Matt Kemp removed in double switch Saturday
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:09 pm ET) Dodgers center fielder Matt Kemp was removed in the seventh inning of his team's 5-3 win over the Cardinals Saturday after going 0 for 3 with a walk and two strikeouts.

Kemp was visibly upset in the dugout after being removed, yelling at manager Don Mattingly in the dugout, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Kemp has hit .261/.313/.344 with two home runs and seven stolen bases in 180 at-bats this season.

Ross Wolf moves to the 'pen
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(11:06 pm ET) Rangers pitcher Ross Wolf, who won in his first major-league start Wednesday against the Athletics, moved to the bullpen after the team called up Martin Perez to start the first game of Monday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks, MLB.com reports.

Wolf allowed one run in five-plus innings during his first big-league appearance since Oct. 1, 2010. He will be used as a long reliever out of the bullpen.
Brandon League records 10th save
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:05 pm ET) Dodgers closer Brandon League threw a perfect ninth inning Saturday against the Cardinals to record his 10th save of the year. It was the first time in seven outings, dating back to April 28, that League didn't allow a hit in an appearance.

League owns a 4.91 ERA while recording 10 of his 12 save opportunities this season.

Ted Lilly allows one earned run in return
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:03 pm ET) Dodgers pitcher Ted Lilly returned to the rotation Saturday and held the Cardinals to two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk in 5 1/3 innings while striking out three. He also hit a batter.

It was Lilly's first major-league action since April 29, when he allowed four earned runs in three innings. He was available out of the bullpen this week but was not used before making the start Saturday. He's on track to face the Angels Thursday.

Dillon Gee allows five runs to fall to 2-6
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(10:53 pm ET) Mets starting pitcher Dillon Gee fell to 2-6 on the season after allowing five earned runs on eight hits in five innings against the Braves Saturday night. He struck out four and walked none but saw his ERA rise to 6.34.

Gee surrendered a two-run home run to opposing starting pitcher Mike Minor in the fifth inning. His next start is against the Yankees Thursday.

Mike Minor strikes out 10
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(10:50 pm ET) Braves starting pitcher Mike Minor threw 7 1/3 scoreless innings while allowing three hits and two walks and struck out 10 in a 7-5 win against the Mets Saturday.

It was Minor's first time with double-digit strikeouts since August 22, 2010, which was the third start of his career. Minor (6-2) takes a 2.47 ERA and 61:14 K:BB ratio into Thursday's game against the Blue Jays.

David Ross wearing protective cap under helmet
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(10:49 pm ET) Red Sox catcher David Ross, who recently returned from the 7-day disabled list for a concussion, will be wearing a Kevlar protective cap under his batting helmet for at least a week until he gets his new helmet with Kevlar inside, according to MLB.com.

"I feel like an idiot with that thing on," Ross joked after playing in his first game since May 11. "I keep putting my mask on, because I don't want to walk around with it. I'm getting some alterations to my helmet, but in the meantime, I'm going to wear that. It's a little extra protection."

Ross was 0 for 5 with five strikeouts Saturday against the Indians.

"I was able to work through the game with no dizziness, nothing like that," he said. "Nothing out of the ordinary, other than swinging and missing. We've got to figure out a way to fix that."
