ChiSox sweep Twins as Stewart sparkles
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 07 - 09 - 2011

Rookie Zach Stewart took a perfect game into the eighth inning and finished with a one-hitter as Chicago completed a doubleheader sweep of Minnesota with a 4-0 victory Monday night.
Danny Valencia's leadoff double in the eighth spoiled the right-hander's bid to become the 21st rookie in major league history to throw a no-hitter.
The White Sox won the afternoon game 2-1.
Yankees 11, Orioles 10: At New York, Jesus Montero broke a fifth-inning tie with his first major league home run, then hit a two-run drive in the seventh to help New York to its fifth straight win.
Blue Jays 1, Red Sox 0: At Toronto, Brett Lawrie homered in the 11th inning to help Toronto end a three-game losing streak. Lawrie homered to center off Dan Wheeler (2-2) with two outs in the 11th, his eighth homer since being called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Aug. 4.
Tigers 4, Indians 2: At Cleveland, Doug Fister struck out a career-high 13, Victor Martinez hit a three-run homer and Detroit extended its AL Central lead to 7 ½ games.
Rays 5, Rangers 1: At St. Petersburg, Florida, James Shields pitched a four-hitter for his major league-best 11th complete game to lead Tampa Bay.
Royals 11, Athletics 6: At Oakland, California, Billy Butler homered twice and drove in three runs, Alex Gordon doubled home the go-ahead run and Kansas City scored five times in the ninth inning.
Angels 7, Mariners 3: At Anaheim, California, Mark Trumbo continued his torrid rookie season with a two-run homer and an RBI double and Vernon Wells hit his 20th home run for Los Angeles.
Dan Haren (14-8) worked in and out of trouble through six innings, allowing three runs and 10 hits while striking out three and walking none.
Anthony Vasquez (1-2) gave up seven runs — six earned — and six hits in 5 2-3 innings for Seattle.
Brenden Ryan got Seattle within 6-3 in the fifth with his third homer. It ended a stretch of 50 1-3 innings and 199 batters in which Haren had not allowed a home run against the Mariners. The previous one was Jose Lopez's three-run shot in Seattle's 4-0 victory at Oakland on Sept. 17, 2007.
