Dioner Navarro drove in the first runs of the game with a two-run triple in the seventh and Jose Quintana struck out 10 as the Chicago White Sox defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 4-0 Wednesday to complete a three-game series sweep. It was the sixth win in a row for the White Sox (16-6) and the third straight loss for the Blue Jays (10-13). Orioles 3, Rays 1 Joey Rickard hit a three-run home run, and Chris Tillman threw 6-2/3 scoreless innings, leading Baltimore to a victory over Tampa Bay at Tropicana Field. The Orioles won the finale of a three-game series and ended a three-game skid while snapping the Rays' three-game winning streak. Mets 5, Reds 2 Neil Walker continued his torrid April by homering and finishing with two RBIs as New York completed a three-game sweep of Cincinnati with a win at Citi Field. The Mets have won six straight and 11 of 13. The Reds have lost four in a row and 12 of 16. Phillies 3, Nationals Starter Jeremy Hellickson pitched seven innings of shutout ball and gave up just two hits and Darin Ruf drove in a run to break a scoreless tie in the sixth inning as Philadelphia shut out Washington. Carlos Ruiz gave the Phillies some insurance in the eighth when he clubbed a two-out solo homer to left off reliever Sammy Solis to make it 3-0. It was just the 13th homer allowed this year by Washington, which has hit 23 of its own. Red Sox 9, Braves 4 Steven Wright, added to the rotation at the start of the season because of an injury to Eduardo Rodriguez, turned in his fourth straight quality start. Backed by two Dustin Pedroia homers, one a grand slam, and three doubles by David Ortiz, Wright helped Boston to a victory over Atlanta. It was the Red Sox's third straight win over the hapless Braves in two locations this week and fourth victory in a row overall.
