Reyes sustained a severely sprained left ankle while stealing a base on Friday night.

"Sometimes a situation like that can really cause a team to jell," said Dickey, the 2012 Cy Young Award winner for the Mets. But he was 0-2 with an 8.44 earned run average for the Blue Jays, who traded for him during the off-season.

That changed Saturday, when Dickey allowed five hits. "His knuckler was really dancing," Royals Manager Ned Yost said.

Jose Bautista hit a two-run homer off James Shields (1-2), who pitched a two-hitter with six strikeouts for Kansas City.

"We're going to go as far as the rotation is going to bring us," said the Blue Jays' general manager, Alex Anthopoulos. "That's really what it comes down to. "

BRAVES 3, NATIONALS 1 Tim Hudson pitched seven innings of four-hit ball, and Evan Gattis homered after a two-out throwing error in the third as visiting Atlanta won its eighth straight game, beating Washington and starter Stephen Strasburg.

Hudson (2-0) allowed one run, walked none and struck out three in improving his record against Washington to 15-5. He also singled twice off Strasburg (1-2), who gave up two unearned runs and five hits in six innings.

GIANTS 3, CUBS 2 Madison Bumgarner lifted his record to 3-0 and Marco Scutaro had three hits for San Francisco at Chicago.

Pinch-hitter Dioner Navarro hit a two-out, two-run homer off Bumgarner in the seventh to pull the Cubs to 3-2. It was Navarro's second pinch homer in two days, from a different side of the plate. His tying homer in the ninth Friday was hit from the left side.

CARDS 8, BREWERS 0 Adam Wainwright pitched a four-hitter and drove in two runs with three hits as host St. Louis shut out Milwaukee for the second straight game. Yovani Gallardo (0-1), the Brewers' ace, fell to 1-10 with a 6.83 ERA against the Cardinals. He was 0-2 with a 12.34 ERA in three starts against St. Louis last season.

The Brewers have not scored in 25 straight innings and are 1-8 since a win on opening day.

DODGERS 7, D'BACKS 5 Hyun-Jin Ryu struck out nine in six innings and got his first three major league hits in the process for visiting Los Angeles, which held off Arizona.

PIRATES 3, REDS 1 Starter Jeff Locke of host Pittsburgh won the first game of his career after seven losses.

MARLINS 2, PHILLIES 1 Chris Coghlan hit a game-ending single against a drawn-in infield with one out in the ninth inning for host Miami. The Marlins' Jose Fernandez, a 20-year-old phenom, pitched six scoreless innings and hit an R.B.I. single.

ROCKIES 9, PADRES 5 Catcher Wil Rosario was 4 for 5 with a homer and three R.B.I. as visiting Colorado outslugged San Diego.

INDIANS 9, WHITE SOX 4 A grand slam by Mark Reynolds and a two-run homer by Yan Gomes, his first hit of the season, gave Cleveland a six-run fifth inning and a 9-2 lead as Chicago fell to 0-5 on the road. In the first inning, Nick Swisher hit his first home run for the Indians.

TIGERS 7, A'S 3 Prince Fielder hit a home run for the second straight game, and Jhonny Peralta and Torii Hunter added homers for Detroit to back Justin Verlander and snap host Oakland's nine-game winning streak.

RED SOX 2, RAYS 1 Shane Victorino drove in the winning run for Boston with a single into a five-man infield in the bottom of the 10th inning.

RANGERS 3, MARINERS 1 Elvis Andrus and Adrian Beltre singled home runs with two out in the eighth inning as visiting Texas rallied to beat Seattle.
