ANAHEIM, Calif. — A few encouraging wins and a promising start to a road trip weren't enough to save Willie Randolph's job.

The New York Mets manager was fired about two hours after his team defeated the Los Angeles Angels 9-6 on Monday night.

Pitching coach Rick Peterson and first base coach Tom Nieto also were dismissed early Tuesday morning.

The overhaul overshadowed a victory, the Mets' second in a row and third in four games, in which Carlos Beltran homered twice and Mike Pelfrey won for the first time in 11 starts. Pelfrey (3-6) allowed six runs, eight hits and two walks in six-plus innings and did not strike out a batter in his first regular-season start against an AL team.

Phillies 8, Red Sox 2

PHILADELPHIA — Ryan Howard homered twice and Jimmy Rollins also connected to back another strong outing by Cole Hamels, helping the Phillies win in an interleague matchup of division leaders.

Hamels (7-4) allowed two runs and seven hits in seven-plus innings. Since consecutive poor outings last month, the left-hander has a 1.50 ERA in his last three starts.

Braves 7, Rockies 1

DENVER — Chipper Jones hit a two-run single in the fifth to break a scoreless tie, Jair Jurrjens pitched into the eighth inning without allowing a run and Atlanta beat Colorado in a National League game.

The contest was a makeup from a game that was snowed out on April 10.

Jones, mired in a 2-for-15 slump entering the game, finished 2-for-4 with a walk, raising his average a point to .403.

Marlins 6, Mariners 1

SEATTLE — Andrew Miller allowed one run and six hits over seven innings for Florida.

Just hours after Seattle fired Bill Bavasi, in his fifth season as the team's general manager, the Mariners lost their eighth straight at home, their longest home losing streak in nearly 12 years.

Giants 8, Tigers 6

SAN FRANCISCO — John Bowker hit a go-ahead, three-run homer in the eighth inning to spoil Fernando Rodney's season debut, and San Francisco won its first interleague game in seven tries this year.
