Reds Beat Cubs, White Sox Claim Victory, MLB Scores

CHICAGO -- The Cincinnati Reds needed something to go right. On Tuesday, starter Anthony DeSclafani made sure enough went their way to end a three-game losing streak.

DeSclafani threw seven scoreless innings, Joey Votto had two hits and drove in a run, and the Reds held on to beat the Chicago Cubs 3-2 on Tuesday night.

DeSclafani gave up two hits while striking out five for the Reds. Acquired this offseason as part of the trade that sent former ace Mat Latos to the Miami Marlins, DeSclafani (1-0) earned his first victory for Cincinnati and impressed manager Bryan Price.

White Sox 4, Indians 1

A split-second after throwing a pitch, Carlos Carrasco was face down in the dirt, motionless on the edge of the mound. As Indians manager Terry Francona left the dugout to check his injured starter, he braced himself for the worst. At that moment, nothing mattered but his player's well-being.

"That's not a good feeling," Francona said. "When he's just laying there, man, that's scary."

Carrasco was struck in the face by a line drive in the first inning but only sustained a bruised jaw, and Chicago's Jose Quintana pitched six strong innings, leading the White Sox to a 4-1 win on Tuesday night. Cleveland's No. 2 starter, Carrasco was knocked off his feet when Melky Cabrera -- the second hitter -- rocketed a shot up the middle that slammed the right side of the right-hander's face. Carrasco (1-1) luckily got a piece of his glove on the ball before it smashed him.
