The Spokesman-Review

Marlins 11, Astros 2: At Houston, Miguel Cabrera hit one of four Florida homers and rookie-laden Florida roughed up Andy Pettitte for 10 runs and 13 hits in a rout of Houston. Josh Willingham connected twice, Mike Jacobs added a three-run shot and Hanley Ramirez had four hits and three RBIs.

Giants at Padres, ppd., rain: The first rainout in San Diego since 1998 forced the postponement of Tuesday night’s game between the San Francisco Giants and the Padres. The game will be made up as part of a day-night doubleheader on July 1. It was just the 16th rainout in Padres history and the first at Petco Park. The Padres had played 635 consecutive home games since they were washed out on May 12, 1998, at Qualcomm Stadium.

Brewers 7, Pirates 5: At Milwaukee, Gabe Gross homered as a pinch-hitter in his first at-bat with Milwaukee and Chris Capuano pitched six solid innings, leading the Brewers past Pittsburgh. Gross’ two-run shot in the sixth inning landed on a catwalk in right-center, putting the Brewers ahead 5-2.

Dodgers 5, Braves 4: At Los Angeles, Brad Penny pitched five strong innings, J.D. Drew hit a two-run homer and Los Angeles beat Atlanta on a rainy night for Grady Little’s first victory as the Dodgers’ manager. Penny allowed five hits and one run while walking none and striking out eight.
