Baseball-Highlights of Thursday's MLB games

May 6 (Reuters) - May 5 (The Sports Xchange) - Highlights of Thursday's Major League Baseball games: Cardinals 4, Phillies 0 Brandon Moss hit the longest home run by a left-handed batter in Busch Stadium history -- 462 feet off the third deck in right field -- and Jaime Garcia pitched seven shutout innings on Thursday, pacing the St. Louis Cardinals to a 4-0 victory against the Philadelphia Phillies. Moss' seventh homer is the fourth longest overall in Busch, which opened in 2006. It came with two outs in the bottom of the first against losing pitcher Jerad Eickhoff and staked Garcia to a quick 1-0 lead. The Moss homer is the fourth longest this season in the major leagues. Garcia took a no-hitter into the top of the fifth before allowing singles to Cameron Rupp and Tyler Goeddel but kept the shutout intact. Indians 9, Tigers 4 Trevor Bauer and four relievers combined on a five-hitter and Michael Brantley had four hits as Cleveland completed a three-game sweep of Detroit at Progressive Field. Cleveland banged out 16 hits, scoring four runs in the first inning, one in the fourth and four in the eighth. The Indians' pitchers took it from there. In the last two games of the series Indians pitchers held the Tigers, who rank second in the American League in hitting, to a .159 batting average. The Indians swept their second three-game series this season against Detroit. Rookie Michael Fulmer gave up five runs and 10 hits in five innings to take the loss in his second major league start for the Tigers. Blue Jays 12, Rangers 2 Edwin Encarnacion drove in a season-best six runs, J.A. Happ pitched seven innings and Toronto defeated Texas for its third win in a row. Encarnacion hit a three-run double on the first pitch he saw from Derek Holland in the five-run first inning for a three-run double. Encarnacion also hit the first pitch from Holland for a three-run home run in the third Holland allowed 11 hits, three walks (one intentional) and 11 runs in 2 2/3 innings for the Rangers. Reds 9, Brewers 5 Jay Bruce and Brandon Phillips hit home runs to stake Cincinnati to a seven-run lead in the second inning, and Alfredo Simon handled Milwaukee over 7 2/3 innings in a win at Great American Ball Park. This is the first time Cincinnati has won consecutive games since beating Colorado on April 19-20. Alex Presley's two-run homer with two outs in the eighth inning ended Simon's night. Blake Wood relieved Simon and got the final out of the inning. Orioles 1, Yankees 0 (10 innings) Pedro Alvarez's 10th-inning sacrifice fly gave Baltimore a victory over New York. Hyun Soo Kim started the winning rally for the Orioles with a leadoff infield single against Johnny Barbato. Kim went to third when Jonathan Schoop followed with a single to left-center. Nolan Reimold then came on to pinch-run for Kim, and the Yankees brought in closer Andrew Miller. Alvarez greeted Miller with a fly ball to medium-deep center. Marlins 4, Diamondbacks 0 Adam Conley pitched 5 1/3 scoreless innings and the Miami bullpen kept up its brilliant work of late to defeat Arizona, sweeping the three-game series at Marlins Park. Christian Yelich hit a two-run homer in the eighth for the Marlins to help put the game out of reach. It was Yelich's third homer of the season but his second in this series. The Marlins won 10 of their past 11 games for just the fifth time in franchise history. Arizona has lost six games in a row.
