Mitch Moreland swats grand slam in Oakland

Mitch Moreland had just one hit over four at-bats in Friday's 7-3 win at Oakland, but the hit was good for a grand slam.

Moreland's bases-clearing homer came off of Emilio Pagan in the sixth inning and it was the big blow to break a 3-3 tie. He is slashing .333/.400/.615, doing a good job in the middle of a powerful Red Sox lineup. Moreland is expected to remain a part-time player for now, but if he stays hot he could force his way into the lineup on a more frequent basis.

Clayton Kershaw loses big showdown

Clayton Kershaw allowed four earned runs, nine hits and no walks with four strikeouts over seven innings in Friday's loss against the Nationals.

Kershaw lost the rare battle between three-time Cy Young Award winners, as Max Scherzer was much more efficient. It was the first time a pair of three-time Cy Young winners hooked up since Greg Maddux against Roger Clemens back in 2006. Kershaw didn't lose his third decision until Sept. 7 last season. He'll next take the ball on Wednesday in Arizona opposite Zack Godley.

Tyson Ross takes no-hitter into eighth inning

Tyson Ross allowed one earned run, one hit and three walks with 10 strikeouts over 7 2/3 innings in a no-decision Friday in Arizona.

Ross was on fire, taking a no-hitter into the eighth inning. He ran out of gas in the eighth in the 127-pitch outing and was unable to produce the first no-hitter in franchise history. In fact, San Diego is the only active organization without a no-no since their inception. He'll look to carry over the momentum into Tuesday's start in San Francisco.

Dylan Bundy dominates in victory over Indians

Dylan Bundy was dominant in Friday's victory over the Indians, striking out nine over six innings of one-run ball.

The box score line really doesn't do Bundy much justice in this one, as he was filthy. He loaded the bases in the first inning, then hit Edwin Encarnacion to force in a run, but after that he completely took the game over. All told, Bundy fired 108 pitches, 71 of them for strikes. He boasts a 1.42 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 40/9 K/BB ratio through 31 2/3 innings on the year. He'll look to continue his dominance when he does battle against the Rays at home on Wednesday.
