OAKLAND — Max Scherzer had six strikeouts and pitched three-hit ball over seven innings and the Texas Rangers extended their longest winning streak in seven years to nine games, beating the last-place Oakland Athletics 6-1 on Tuesday night.Scherzer, the three-time Cy Young winner whom the Rangers acquired in a trade from the Mets on July 30, worked efficiently through the worst offense in the majors in front of another sparse crowd of 5,419 at the Coliseum.The 39-year-old right-hander retired nine of the first 10 batters he faced and didn’t allow a hit until JJ Bleday’s leadoff homer in the fourth. Scherzer also walked two.“Just a typical Scherzer outing. He knows how to use pitch,” A’s manager Mark Kotsay said. “That’s why he’s been so successful in his career, and it’s why the Rangers went out and got him — to eat innings and to go out and be a big-time performer.“He showed up tonight and we got one run off of him.

Twenty one hours and 10 minutes elapsed between the last out of the Giants’ come-from-behind win Monday night and first pitch Tuesday.That, apparently, was enough time for the Angels to think of their best revenge.In their first chance on a clean slate since the Giants erupted for six runs in the ninth inning Monday night, the Angels foiled manager Gabe Kapler’s opener strategy with a four-run first inning that, returning to their light-hitting ways for much of the night, they were unable to climb out of in a 7-5 loss.Wilmer Flores continued to do his darnedest to carry the team on his back, driving in four of their five runs with a pair of hits, including a two-run homer that closed the deficit to one in the eighth, but received little help from the rest of the order, which went back into hibernation after briefly awakening in Monday’s late rally.The Giants mustered only three hits besides Flores’ and came up empty — seven total no-hit innings — between Flor...Silver Alert issued for missing Los Gatos man
