Bad news for Ryan Braun: He left the Milwaukee Brewer’s 4-0 loss to the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks with a recurrence of that calf injury which put him on the disabled list. Looks like he’s heading back there. He was 0-for-1 before coming out in the fourth. The Brewers are 25-22.

Danny Valencia was 1-for-3 with a walk and committed his third error as the Seattle Mariners (21-27) beat the host Washington Nationals, 4-2.

Ian Kinsler singled in five at-bats for the Detroit Tigers (22-24) ,who lost a tight one to the Houston Astros (32-16), 7-6. Alex Bregman was 0-for-4 for the winners.

The LA Dodgers (28-20) placed Joc Pederson on the concussion DL following his outfield collision with Yasiel Puig. They beat the visiting St. Louis Cardinals, 7-3.

No games for Craig Breslow (Minnesota Twins), Kevin Pillar (Toronto Blue Jays) or Richard Bleier (Baltimore Orioles). The game between Scott Feldman‘s Cincinnati Reds and the host Cleveland Indians was postponed.
