Baseball-Major League Baseball roundup

June 12 (The Sports Xchange) - New York Mets manager Terry Collins fell ill prior to Sunday's game in Milwaukee and was transported to a hospital less than 30 minutes prior to first pitch against the Brewers. Collins, 67, said he didn't feel well. He was examined by the Brewers' team doctor prior to the decision to take him to hospital. "He's alert, fine," Mets assistant general manager John Ricco told reporters. "He just wasn't feeling well before the game. So they're going to have some tests run. That's really all I have right now. ... Afterward, he was feeling OK. We're just being cautious here." Bench coach Dick Scott served as manager for Sunday's game. - - - The Brewers demoted Opening Day starter Wily Peralta to Triple-A Colorado Springs on Sunday and announced that right-hander Matt Garza will make his season debut on Tuesday. Peralta has been a major disappointment this season with a 4-7 record and 6.88 ERA in 13 starts. He has allowed a major-league-worst 97 hits. Garza, 32, has been sidelined with a right lat sprain. He will be activated from the 60-day disabled list prior to Tuesday's game. Peralta was a 17-game winner in 2014 but struggled to a 5-10 record last season. - - - The Tampa Bay Rays and Houston Astros held a moment of silence before Sunday's game in honor of the victims of Sunday's mass shooting in Orlando, just 90 miles east of St. Petersburg, Fla. The video board at Tropicana Field also showed where fans can donate blood to help out. The Arizona Diamondbacks and Miami Marlins also observed a moment of silence before their game in respect of 50 killed and 53 injured in the Orlando nightclub. - - - The Rays announced that top prospect Blake Snell will be called up from the minors to join the rotation Thursday against the Mariners, with Matt Andriese headed to the bullpen despite leading Tampa Bay starters with five wins.
