Trump picks ex-N. Korea policy official as his principal deputy national security adviser
SEOUL/LOS ANGELES (Yonhap) ― Ryu Hyun-jin of the Los Angeles Dodgers suffered his second loss of the Major League Baseball season on Sunday after a shaky start against the Colorado Rockies.
Ryu dropped to 3-2 after allowing six earned runs on nine hits in five-plus innings against the Rockies at Dodger Stadium, as Colorado took the game 6-1.
Ryu was relieved by Brandon League with no out in the top sixth after Josh Rutledge’s three-run homer.
Ryu allowed leadoff hits in four of the six innings and threw 89 pitches on the tough day, 64 of them for strikes.
The left-hander saw his ERA balloon from 2.12 to 3.23.
The Dodgers opened the scoring in the bottom first thanks to Adrian Gonzalez’s RBI single, but the Rockies promptly went ahead with two runs in the second on Brandon Barnes’ two-run single.
Ryu appeared to settle down and retired seven in a row in one stretch, before giving up another run in the fifth.
Charlie Blackmon led off the fifth with a double. Barnes laid down a bunt and was safe at first on Ryu’s fielding error.
Seager rallies Mariners
SEATTLE (AP) ― Kyle Seager hit a pair of home runs, including a three-run shot in the eighth, to lead the Seattle Mariners to a 6-5 win against the Texas Rangers on Sunday.
Seager has five home runs in four games, a power surge that started with a two-homer game against the Astros on Wednesday. He’s also had at least two hits in all four games, tying a career-best streak.
Seager led off the seventh inning with his first home run and then gave Seattle the lead with his two-out bomb down the right field line in the eighth off Alexi Ogando (1-2). The comeback victory also gave the Mariners their first home series win against Texas since September 2012.
Hicks carries Giants
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) ― Brandon Hicks made the team in spring training when it became obvious San Francisco’s regular second baseman, Marco Scutaro, would not be ready to start the season. He’s made the most of his opportunity.
Hicks hit a three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning to give the San Francisco Giants a 4-1 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Sunday, completing a three-game sweep. “It felt awesome,” said Hicks, who hit a game-ending homer for the Oakland Athletics two years ago. “You always remember these.”
Hicks signed a minor-league deal with the Giants last November and made the club when Scutaro’s lower back strain remained a problem.
