BOSTON – The Baltimore Orioles felt fortunate to fall only one game further behind the Boston Red Sox in the AL East standings. The Orioles managed just four hits and struck out eight times in a 13-2 rout against the first-place Red Sox on Tuesday night. Baltimore dropped 6 1-2 games behind Boston in the division race. “You’ve got a team playing well over there. That’s why they are where they are,” Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. “If you make some mistakes, especially in this park, you’re going to pay for it. Thank goodness it was one night and that’s what’s great about the game. We get to wipe the slate clean tomorrow.” Shane Victorino homered twice and drove in a career-high seven runs to lead the Red Sox. Felix Doubront pitched 6 2-3 innings of four-hit ball. Victorino also had a two-run double in the seventh, and Dustin Pedroia had three hits for Boston. J.J. Hardy and Danny Valencia each had two of Baltimore’s four hits. Wei-Yin Chen (7-7) lasted just 3 2-3 innings, allowing eight runs on eight hits and three walks. He struck out five and hit a batter. “He just had a little bit of trouble throwing the off-speed stuff for strikes,” catcher Matt Wieters said. “It’s a good lineup over there. If the only pitch you can really command is your fastball, they’re going to be able to just jump on it a little bit.” Doubront (10-6) had only one bad inning, allowing the first four batters in Baltimore’s two-run third to reach. But he retired 14 of the next 16 before leaving to a standing ovation from the Fenway Park crowd of 36,226. “We had one opportunity against him and cashed in two, but there was potential for more,” Showalter said. “He pitched well and we did not pitch well. Doubront gave up two runs on four hits, a walk and a hit batsman. He struck out seven and has allowed three or fewer runs in 21 of 24 starts. Victorino started the scoring in the first when he walked, took third on Pedroia’s double and scored on David Ortiz’s sacrifice fly. After Doubront allowed his only runs in the third to give the Orioles a 2-1 lead, Boston came back in the bottom half with two when Will Middlebrooks singled and scored on Victorino’s two-run shot – the 100th homer of his career. Mike Napoli led off the fourth with a homer to spark a five-run inning and chase Chen. Boston added three more in the fifth on Victorino’s second homer.
ELSEWHERE IN THE AL ANGELS 6, RAYS 5: At St. Petersburg, Fla. Erick Aybar drove in four runs and the Los Angeles Angels rallied from a four-run deficit to get the win. Aybar hit a two-run double off closer Fernando Rodney (5-4) to put the Angels up 6-5 in the ninth. Aybar also had a two-run single during a three-run seventh that made it 5-4. YANKEES 7, BLUE JAYS 1: At Toronto, Alfonso Soriano hit two home runs, Andy Pettitte
pitched seven shutout innings, and the Yankees beat the Blue Jays after losing Robinson Cano in the first inning. Alex Rodriguez and Mark Reynolds also homered for the Yankees. Cano sustained a bruised left hand after being struck by a pitch from left-hander J.A. Happ (3-4). X-rays were negative, and the Yankees said Cano is day to day. ATHLETICS 6, TIGERS 3, 5 INNINGS: At Detroit, Brandon Moss hit a tiebreaking two-run homer off Justin Verlander, and the Athletics beat the Tigers in a game cut short by rain. Seth Smith hit a leadoff homer in the sixth, and Oakland had the bases loaded with no one out when the tarp was pulled on the field due to the weather. It was called after an 80-minute delay. ROYALS 6, TWINS 1: At Minneapolis, James Shields was sharp for 7 1-3 innings, Alex Gordon had three RBIs and Kansas City scored five runs in the eighth inning. Shields – the key part in the deal that sent top prospect Wil Myers to Tampa Bay in the offseason – struck out seven and notched his American-League best 22nd quality start. Shields (9-8) only allowed one hit through seven innings before running into trouble and leaving in the eighth inning. WHITE SOX 4, ASTROS 3: At Chicago, Jordan Danks hit a clutch two-run single in Chicago’s three-run eighth inning, leading the White Sox to the victory. Danks finished with a career-high three hits as the White Sox won for the ninth time in 11 games, bouncing back from a difficult loss in the series opener. Paul Konerko, Alexei Ramirez and Avisail Garcia had two hits apiece.
NATIONAL LEAGUE METS 5, PHILLIES 0: At New York, Jonathon Niese pitched a three-hitter and lined a gamebreaking three-run double Tuesday night as the New York Mets ended a five-game losing streak. Niese struck out five and walked one in his second career shutout in 112 major league starts. The Mets won several hours after trading veterans Marlon Byrd and John Buck to Pittsburgh. CARDINALS 6, REDS 1: At St. Louis, Joe Kelly tossed six strong innings, and Matt Holliday drove in a run for a seventh straight game, lifting St. Louis over Cincinnati. St. Louis has won six of seven, including the first two games of this threegame set. The first-place Cardinals have won eight of their last 10 against the third-place Reds and lead them by 4½ games in the NL Central. Holliday, who went 2 for 3, keyed a two-run outburst in the first against Mat Latos (13-5), who gave up four runs on nine hits over six innings. BREWERS 7, PIRATES 6: At Pittsburgh, Aramis Ramirez had three hits, including his 350th career home run, and drove in four runs as Milwaukee edged Pittsburgh, which trails St. Louis in the NL Central race and lost its third in a row. Pedro Alvarez went 4-for-4 with a walk, and hit his NL-leading 32nd home run for the Pirates. NATIONALS 2, MARLINS 1: At Washington, Ross Ohlendorf pitched into the sixth inning, Ian Desmond had three hits, and Washington beat Miami. Ohlendorf (3-0) pitched five innings of two-hit ball before Christian Yelich led off the sixth with his second homer, ending the starter’s outing.Washington kicked off a six-game homestand with its sixth victory in seven games. GIANTS 5, ROCKIES 3: At Denver, Hunter Pence and Pablo Sandoval hit back-to-back homers, and Yusmeiro Petit won his first game in four years, helping San Francisco beat Colorado. Pence and Sandoval went deep in the opening inning, marking the first time all season the Giants have hit back-to-back homers. Brandon Belt had four singles and scored twice for San Francisco.
INTERLEAGUE BRAVES 2, INDIANS 0: At Atlanta, rookie Alex Wood pitched five-plus strong innings and Elliot Johnson had a two-run triple as Atlanta held off Cleveland. The Braves have won two straight, improving the majors’ best record to 79-52. They have won 14 of 17 at Turner Field and own baseball’s home mark at 45-18. Craig Kimbrel pitched a perfect ninth to earn his 42nd save, most in the majors, in 45 chances. Cleveland had won two straight and five of six, but lost despite holding Atlanta to just three hits.
