SAN DIEGO (AP) — Rookie Aledmys Diaz had his first five-hit game, Jedd Gyorko and Jeremy Hazelbaker hit three-run homers and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the San Diego Padres 11-2 on Saturday night. Diaz had a two-run double in the ninth, while Gyorko homered off his old team and Hazelbaker snapped an 0-for-17 slump. Gyorko and Stephen Piscotty each had three hits, and Piscotty hit a solo homer in the sixth.
Gyorko and Hazelbaker homered off Carlos Villanueva, who pitched for the Cardinals last year before signing with the Padres as a free agent. Michael Wacha (2-0) and three relievers combined on a four-hitter. Kevin Quackenbush (1-1) allowed two runs and one hit in 1 1/3 innings for the loss.
Gyorko, traded to the Cardinals for outfielder Jon Jay on Dec. 8, reached the second deck in left field with a 436-foot shot, his third, with one out in the eighth.

Comments on the tournament from Atlantic Boys Golf Coach Ed DenBeste: “Going into this meet, I knew they boys were pretty tired. We had traveled around the state for several meets and I was hoping that we weren’t too tired. Great to see our team get the win today with a good score of 323 in the wind. Denison is a good course but very tough with a strong wind. When you have 5 of your 6 golfers in the top 10, you know you have played a good solid round. Zac played great. He had some struggles earlier in the week but this was a great round for him. Jake had played well all day and just had two bad holes at the end. The par 3s on the back are difficult. Ben and Kyle played solid today. This was Matt Gearheart’s first round here so it was great to see him shoot a good score of 83. Nate had a nice round as well especially after being sick yesterday. I know he will get that score down. Great win for our team!!!!!”

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa had hoped that the return of star defensive end Drew Ott would fill out its defense. The Hawkeyes should be stout on that side of the ball anyway.
Iowa suffered its first major loss in 2016 when the NCAA denied Ott’s appeal for an extra year of eligibility because of a medical hardship. But the Hawkeyes should still have one of the best defenses in the Big Ten next fall, with seven starters back from a unit that allowed just 19 points a game last season.
Iowa, which went 12-2 and 8-0 in conference play last season, concluded spring practice with a scrimmage Saturday at Kinnick Stadium in which its defense outpaced its offense.
