New York Mets' Josh Thole (30) congratulates Daniel Murphy (C) and Carlos Beltran (No. 15) after the duo scored on a Lucas Duda double off Texas Rangers' Alexi Ogando in Arlington, Texas, Saturday. (AP) ARLINGTON, Texas: Lucas Duda matched a Mets record with three doubles while going 4 for 5 with four RBIs and New York had season highs for runs and hits in a 14-5 victory over the Texas Rangers in Interleague play Saturday. The Mets led 3-0 after four batters against Alexi Ogando (7-3), who lost his third consecutive start without making it past the fifth inning. Jonathon Niese (7-6) struck out seven in 5 2-3 innings and limited Texas to two runs on consecutive homers by Adrian Beltre and Michael Young in the fourth. The Mets said the right-hander left the game, which was played in sweltering heat, for precautionary reasons because of a rapid heartbeat. Niese is 5-2 with a 2.36 ERA his last eight starts. Carlos Beltran also had three hits for the Mets. Yankees 8, Rockies 3: In New York, CC Sabathia tossed eight stingy innings to win for the seventh time in his last eight starts and Alex Rodriguez drove in three runs as the New York Yankees beat Colorado. A dozen pitchers began the day with nine wins, but Sabathia (10-4) became the first to reach double digits. The big lefty allowed one run while striking out nine, improving to 19-7 all-time in Interleague play. He threw just 103 pitches, but manager Joe Girardi decided against letting him finish the game. Buddy Carlyle promptly gave up Ty Wigginton's two-run homer in the ninth. Angels 6, Dodgers 1: In Los Angeles, Tyler Chatwood pitched seven strong innings and Mark Trumbo and Vernon Wells each homered as the Angels defeated the Dodgers for their second straight win in the Freeway Series. The Angels are 10-3 in their last 13 games at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers lost their third straight and eighth in their last 11. Chatwood (5-4) retired the first 10 Dodgers he faced before Jamey Carroll singled up the middle in the fourth. Andre Ethier then grounded into an inning-ending double play. The right-hander allowed one run and four hits, struck out five and walked three while improving to 3-0 in his first three career interleague starts. White Sox 3, Nationals 0: In Chicago, Jake Peavy threw four dominant innings in his first career relief appearance as the White Sox beat Washington. Peavy (4-1) gave up a hit and struck out seven, combining with starter John Danks, Brian Bruney and closer Sergio Santos on a two-hitter that ended Washington's five-game winning streak. Danks left in the second inning because on an injury, Bruney gave up only one hit in 2 1-3 innings, and Santos followed Peavy by getting the last three outs for his 15th save. Peavy threw 55 pitches in his first appearance out of the bullpen after 238 career starts. Tom Gorzelanny (2-6) matched his longest outing of the season with seven innings, allowing one run and seven hits while striking out eight. In other games it was: Giants 1, Indians 0; Tigers 6, Diamondbacks 0; Marlins 4, Mariners 2; Braves 10, Padres 1; Pirates 6, Red Sox 4; Reds 10, Orioles 5; Athletics 4, Phillies 1; Brewers 11, Twins 1; Royals 3, Cubs 2; Rays 7, Astros 2; Blue Jays 6, Cardinals 3.
