Roy Halladay was victorious in his return to the mound on Sunday as the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Halladay pitched six strong innings, allowing just four hits. He allowed two runs, struck out two and walked another pair. He threw 55 of his 94 pitches for strikes.

He made his last start on May 5.

New Dodgers reliever Brian Wilson pitched a scoreless ninth inning in the Dodgers' 6-0 win over the Marlins on Thursday, his first appearance in the majors since undergoing Tommy John surgery in April 2012.

The former Giants closer was sharp in his Dodgers debut, striking out two of the three batters he faced, including Giancarlo Stanton, according to an ESPN.com report.

Ryan Dempster drilled Alex Rodriguez with a pitch in the second inning of Sunday night's game between the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox.

Joe Girardi was ejected after the plunking. Both benches were warned following what seemed like an intentional hit by pitch.

Rodriguez got revenge on Dempster with a home run to center field in the sixth inning as the Yankees rallied and won 9-6 at Fenway Park.

"Whether you like me or hate, that was wrong," Rodriguez said. "That was unprofessional and silly. It was kind of a silly way to get someone hurt on your team as well."

Dempster claimed, "I was just trying to pitch inside."

Hours after he was ejected, Girardi was still fuming.

"You can't start throwing at people," Girardi said. "Lives -- people have had concussions. Lives are changed by getting hit by pitches. Whether I agree with everything that's going on, you do not throw at people and you don't take the law into your own hands. You don't do that. We're going to skip the judicial system? It's 'My Cousin Vinny.'"

The Philadelphia Phillies dismissed Charlie Manuel on Friday, naming Ryne Sandberg as their new manager.

The Dodgers defeated the Phillies 4-0 in the interim manager's debut.

"It was a roller coaster of a day emotionally," Sandberg said. "It affected me and I think it affects the players."

Miami Marlins right-hander Jose Fernandez established a franchise rookie record with 14 strikeouts and added an RBI in a 1-0 victory over the Cleveland Indians.

"He was on a mission today, and he's been ready to pitch and wanting to pitch since his last start," Mike Redmond said. "I think he went out there today against a great lineup and really just dominated. His command was phenomenal. You could tell from the first inning that he had it. He just went out there and executed his pitches. I told him, 'Hey, you might have finished that game if you didn't walk the pitcher.'"

Fernandez became the first pitcher with at least 13 strikeouts in successive games since Randy Johnson in 2004.

"He's not afraid to be great," said Logan Morrison, who had four hits and drove in four runs. "He loves the stage and really wants to be great. I know that's weird. What do you mean afraid to be great? He's a bulldog, dude, and I'm glad he's on my team."

In his last 11 starts, Fernandez is 6-2 with a 1.67 ERA and 86 strikeouts in 75 1/3 innings.
