The Spokesman-Review

Red Sox 5, Tigers 0: At Detroit, Tim Wakefield allowed two hits in eight shutout innings to lift Boston over the Tigers. David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez hit back-to-back homers on successive pitches in the Red Sox’s fifth straight win and seventh in the last eight games.

Indians 5, Yankees 3: At New York, pinch-hitter David Dellucci stunned the Yankees with a go-ahead homer off Joba Chamberlain and Cleveland rallied for a victory. It was only the second home run allowed in 37 career innings by Chamberlain since reaching the majors.

Rays 5, Blue Jays 4: At Toronto, Andy Sonnanstine won his fourth straight start, Eric Hinske homered, and Tampa Bay snapped the Blue Jay’s five-game winning streak. Sonnanstine (5-1) became the fastest five-game winner in the Rays’ 11-year history.

Angels 5, Royals 3: At Kansas City, Mo., Garret Anderson homered and drove in five runs to lift Los Angeles over the Royals. Vladimir Guerrero tripled, doubled walked and scored two runs for the Angels, who earned their major league-leading 12th road victory.

White Sox 7, Twins 1: At Chicago, Gavin Floyd’s no-hit bid lasted until the ninth, when Joe Mauer doubled with one out for Minnesota’s only hit as the White Sox ended a six-game losing streak. Manager Ozzie Guillen then pulled the 25-year-old right-hander, who threw 105 pitches.

Athletics 4, Orioles 2: At Oakland, Calif., Justin Duchscherer won his second straight start in his third outing since coming off the disabled list and the Athletics beat Baltimore for their third straight victory. Frank Thomas had two singles and scored twice.
