SAN FRANCISCO (AP) " Ryan Zimmerman's 30-game hitting streak ended when he went 0 for 3 with two walks, but Shairon Martis allowed two hits over seven sharp innings to remain unbeaten this season in the Washington Nationals' 6-3 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday.
Zimmerman never got the ball out of the infield, falling just short of Vladimir Guerrero's franchise-record streak of 31 games for the Montreal Expos in 1999. After two groundouts and two walks against Giants starter Barry Zito (1-3), Zimmerman grounded into a fielder's choice against reliever Pat Misch in the ninth.
Nick Johnson hit an RBI double and Elijah Dukes drove in two runs with a broken-bat single for the Nationals, who avoided a three-game sweep while snapping a nine-game losing streak to the Giants.
Martis (5-0) is responsible for nearly half of the Nationals' 11 victories this season. The former Giants farmhand also doubled and scored the first run in the fifth.
Kip Wells earned his second career save.
Braves 8, Mets 7, 12 innings
NEW YORK (AP) " Martin Prado homered in the 12th inning and Atlanta beat New York after wasting three leads.
Gary Sheffield tied the score in the eighth with his second home run of the season and No. 501 of his career. Fernando Tatis hit a grand slam for the Mets, who stranded the potential tying run at third in the 12th.
Jose Reyes led off with a double, a drive about 1 1/2 feet from the top of the high left-field wall. Luis Castillo sacrificed him to third, but Carlos Beltran struck out and Sheffield took a called a third strike.
Jeff Bennett (1-1) got six outs for the win, one day after losing on a 10th-inning walk to Beltran. Mike Gonzalez, who blew a ninth-inning lead Tuesday, earned his sixth save.
Prado connected off 40-year-old rookie Ken Takahashi (0-1).
Pirates 5, Cardinals 2
PITTSBURGH (AP) " Adam LaRoche became the first player to have a home run taken away by video replay, but it didn't prevent the last-place Pirates from beating the Cardinals behind Ross Ohlendorf's two-hit pitching over six innings.
The Pirates had lost eight in a row and 12 of 13 before outscoring the Cardinals 12-3 while winning the first two games of the three-game series. The Cardinals have lost five in a row in Pittsburgh, including a 7-1 loss Monday.
Ohlendorf (4-3) mostly cruised against a Cardinals lineup that was missing Ryan Ludwick, who went on the 15-day disabled list earlier in the day with a right hamstring injury. The Cardinals' only run off Ohlendorf came on Skip Schumaker's homer in the fourth.
Dodgers 9, Phillies 2
PHILADELPHIA (AP) " Randy Wolf dominated his former team, James Loney homered and drove in four runs and the Dodgers beat the Phillies.
Wolf (2-1) allowed one run and three hits, striking out eight in six sharp innings in his second career start against the Phillies. Wolf spent his first eight years in Philadelphia, leaving after the 2006 season.
Jimmy Rollins and Raul Ibanez hit solo homers for the Phillies, who got another poor outing from Jamie Moyer (3-3).
The 46-year-old Moyer still needs one victory to become the oldest pitcher to reach 250 wins. He allowed seven runs and eight hits in 4 1-3 innings, while his ERA rose to 8.15.
Brewers 8, Marlins 6
MILWAUKEE (AP) " Rickie Weeks homered for the third straight game and the Brewers rallied again, benefiting from an umpires' video replay reversal to beat the Marlins.
Marlins pinch-hitter Ross Gload apparently hit a two-run homer down the right-field line off Braden Looper in the sixth inning that would've cut Milwaukee's lead to 8-7.
But umpires reversed first base umpire Bruce Dreckman's call after spending two minutes with video replay, the first at Miller Park since baseball adopted the system late last August.
It was the second home run taken away by replay Wednesday night. Hours earlier, Pittsburgh's Adam LaRoche became the first player to lose one. Cubs 6, Padres 4, 7 1/2 innings
CHICAGO (AP) " Alfonso Soriano hit his 53rd career leadoff homer and the Cubs beat the Padres in a rain-shortened game.
Soriano moved into a tie for second place on the all-time list with Craig Biggio. Ryan Theriot added two homers and Geovany Soto went deep for the first time this season in a game that was stopped following a 58-minute delay before the bottom of the eighth after a barrage of lightning and rain. It also started 37 minutes late and was interrupted for four minutes after the fifth inning, but on this humid night long drives were as constant as the raindrops.
Adrian Gonzalez hit two homers off Chicago's Ted Lilly (5-2), giving him 13 overall and at least one in three straight games. His two-run shot in the first put the Padres ahead 2-0, but the Cubs responded with three in the bottom half against Chris Young (2-2), sending San Diego to its 18th loss in 22 games and 10th straight on the road.
Astros 15, Rockies 11
DENVER (AP) " Lance Berkman went 4 for 4 and the Astros finished with 24 hits in a victory over the Rockies.
Berkman drove in two runs and scored three times for the Astros, who were one hit shy of their franchise record for a nine-inning game set during the second matchup in a doubleheader against Atlanta on May 30, 1976. Geoff Blum matched his career high with five RBIs.
Mike Hampton (2-3) was the beneficiary of all the run support. He allowed five runs and seven hits over six innings against his former team to improve to 18-10 at Coors Field, the second-most wins by a left-hander in the park's history.
