NL SCORE Padres
Tampa Bay stars Evan Lon- goria and B.J. Upton had to be separated in a dugout dispute after Gerardo Parra hit a two- run homer in the fifth inning to propel Arizona. Rodrigo Lopez and three re- lievers combined on a two- hitter for the Diamondbacks, who took two of three from the Rays. On Friday night, Edwin Jackson no-hit Tampa Bay, which had seven hits in the se- ries. The Rays are 12-19 since May 23, dropping from first place to third in the AL East. Arizona

BLOWN CALL
Umpire Gary Cederstrom acknowledged that he erred when he called a third strike on Johnny Damon that ended the Braves’ 4-3 win over the Tigers on Saturday night with the bases loaded. Tigers Manager Jim Leyland said on Sunday that he called Cederstrom after the game and the umpire said: “ ‘I kicked it. I knew it right away.’ ” Replays showed the full- count pitch was outside. A walk would have tied the score.

Jamie Moyer gave up his rec-
ord-breaking 506th home run but was sharp otherwise, and Philadelphia took advantage of a season-high four errors by To- ronto. Moyer’s only mistake was a two-run shot by Vernon Wells in the third inning. Moyer passed Phillies Hall of Famer Robin Roberts for the most ho- mers allowed in a career.

Josh Hamilton extended his
hitting streak to 21 games with the second-longest home run ever at Rangers Ballpark along with a couple of defensive highlights and Texas beat Houston to win another series. Hamilton’s two-run homer in the second was a 468-foot drive several rows into the up- per deck in right-center field, way above the Rangers’ bull- pen.
