AL: D-Rays finally lose one



By The Associated Press

TORONTO - Tampa Bay's team-record winning streak ended at 12 games when Reed Johnson hit a game-winning single in the 10th inning to give the Toronto Blue Jays a 2-1 victory Wednesday night over the Devil Rays.

The Devil Rays had not lost since the San Francisco beat them 7-3 June 8. It was the longest winning streak in the majors since Arizona won 12 straight from June 18-30 last year.

Toronto trailed 1-0, but tied the score in the eighth when Victor Zambrano bounced a wild pitch after Alex Rios singled, stole second and took third on a groundout.

In the 10th, Dave Berg hit a single off Jesus Colome (1-1), Frank Menechino walked and Howie Clark sacrificed before Johnson made a winner of reliever Jason Frasor (3-2).

Orioles 13, Yankees 2

BALTIMORE - David Newhan set career highs of four hits and three RBIs, and the Orioles emphatically ended a nine-game skid against New York with a 17-hit attack.

Eric Bedard (2-2) allowed seven hits and one earned run in five-plus innings. The Yankees had won nine in a row and were 19-3 this season against left-handed starters.

Jon Lieber (5-5) gave up seven runs in 3 2-3 innings.

Twins 4, Red Sox 2

BOSTON - Torii Hunter had a home run and three RBIs to lead Minnesota over the Red Sox.

Carlos Silva (8-4) held the Red Sox scoreless until Mark Bellhorn's eighth homer made it 4-1 leading off the sixth inning. Derek Lowe (6-6) took the loss after coming in without allowing an earned run in 18 innings. He gave up two in the first.

Joe Nathan pitched the ninth for his 20th save in 21 tries.

Indians 9, White Sox 5

CHICAGO - Pinch-hitter Ben Broussard had a grand slam in the eighth inning and Ronnie Belliard homered in his third straight game for Cleveland.

Casey Blake and Lou Merloni also homered for the Indians. Paul Konerko hit two and Aaron Rowand one for Chicago.

Cliff Lee, appealing a six-game suspension for throwing behind Ken Griffey Jr.'s head on June 13, pitched six solid innings. Lee (7-1) beat Mark Buehrle (7-2).

Rangers 6, Mariners 3

ARLINGTON, Texas - Nick Bierbrodt pitched six strong innings to win for the first time in more than two years, giving Texas its fifth straight victory.

Rich Aurilia homered and Jolbert Cabrera had three hits for the Mariners.

Bierbrodt (1-0) beat Ryan Franklin (3-5) to win for the first time since Oct. 4, 2001, when he was pitching for Tampa Bay. Bierbrodt allowed two runs and five hits.

Royals 7, Tigers 3

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Dee Brown hit a two-run single in a four-run first inning.

Darrell May (5-8) allowed two runs and nine hits in seven innings and beat Gary Knotts (4-2). Ivan Rodriguez had a two-run homer for Detroit, which lost its season-high fifth straight.

The Tigers made two errors in a three-run eighth inning.

Mike Sweeney and Joe Randa had RBI doubles for Kansas City.
