The Spokesman-Review

Athletics 6, Yankees 1: Dan Haren pitched a six-hitter for his first complete game this season and Oakland homered twice off an inconsistent Randy Johnson to win in New York. Mark Kotsay and Jay Payton connected for the A’s, who avoided a three-game sweep and snapped their four-game losing skid.

Blue Jays 8, Devil Rays 3: Josh Towers won his first game of the season, snapping a seven-game losing streak, and Toronto beat host Tampa Bay.

Orioles 8, Royals 7: Pinch-hitter Kevin Millar capped a four-run ninth inning with a two-out RBI single, and Baltimore beat visiting Kansas City for a three-game sweep.

Tigers 3, Indians 2: Mike Maroth pitched six strong innings and Detroit completed its first three-game sweep in Cleveland in nearly 16 years. The Tigers last swept a series in Cleveland on June 5-7, 1990.

White Sox 9, Twins 7: Mark Buerhle settled down after an awful first inning and visiting Chicago turned a triple play in a victory over Minnesota. Jermaine Dye and A.J. Pierzynski went deep for Chicago, which had been outscored 18-5 in two losses to start the four-game series.

Rangers vs. Red Sox, ppd., rain: Sunday’s game between Boston and Texas was postponed because of rain, the second straight washout in the series. A makeup date has not been announced.
