Tigers edge Indians; A-Rod appeals suspension
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 09 - 08 - 2013

CLEVELAND — Prince Fielder hit a two-run double in the 14th inning as the Detroit Tigers won their 11th straight, 6-5 Wednesday night over the Cleveland Indians, who fell six games out of first place in the AL Central and maybe left rookie Danny Salazar in for one too many pitches.
White Sox 6, Yankees 5, 12 innings: Alejandro De Aza's game-winning triple with two outs rallied the Chicago White Sox to a 6-5 win over the New York Yankees, hours after New York's Alex Rodriguez appealed his suspension.
Red Sox 7, Astros 5: Stephen Drew hit a three-run homer in the top of the ninth to rally the Red Sox to a victory over the Astros.
David Ortiz had four hits and Jonny Gomes also hit a home run for the Red Sox, who have won seven of their last nine games.
Mariners 9, Blue Jays 7: Humberto Quintero's two-run homer highlighted a six-run fifth inning, and the Mariners rallied for a victory over Toronto to spoil the return of Blue Jays left-hander J.A. Happ.
Happ made his first start since May 7, when he suffered a skull fracture and a sprained right knee after being struck behind the left ear by a line drive from Tampa Bay's Desmond Jennings. Happ left the field on a stretcher, spent the night in the hospital and had three months of rehabilitation, primarily for the knee.
Royals 5, Twins 2: The Kansas City bullpen picked up starter Danny Duffy when he labored in his return from Tommy John surgery, keeping the Twins guessing and sending the Royals to a victory and series win.
Rangers 10, Angels 3: Adrian Beltre had a homer, three RBIs and scored three runs to help Texas beat the Angels and move the Rangers into a virtual tie with Oakland for the AL West lead.
National League
Braves 6, Nationals 3: Jason Heyward singled and Justin Upton doubled in a three-run eighth inning Wednesday night in the Atlanta Braves' sweep-capping 6-3 win over the Washington Nationals, a game played nicely by both sides one night after a fastball to Bryce Harper's thigh cleared both benches.
Mets 5, Rockies 0: Matt Harvey pitched a four-hitter for his first career shutout and Wilmer Flores had a three-run double, leading the Mets to the victory.
Harvey (9-3) struck out six and walked none in his 33rd career start.
Cubs 5, Phillies 2: Donnie Murphy hit a tiebreaking three-run shot in the ninth inning for his second homer of the game, lifting the Cubs to the win.
Pirates 4, Marlins 2: Charlie Morton retired his final 11 batters over seven strong innings, and the Pirates maintained the best record in the majors.
Dodgers 13, Cardinals 4: Carl Crawford's line-drive double off Shelby Miller's right elbow ended the Cardinals starter's night after just two pitches and the Dodgers punished the rookie's replacements, too.
Brewers 6, Giants 1: Norichika Aori drove in two runs, Khris Davis hit a home run and the Brewers defeated the Giants.
Inter-League
Diamondbacks 9, Rays 8: Martin Prado hit a two-run single in the eighth inning and also had a two-run homer, helping the Diamondbacks rally for a victory over the Rays.
Orioles 10, Padres 3: Chris Davis hit his major league-best 41st homer in Baltimore's four-run eighth inning.
Reds 6, Athletics 5: Jay Bruce hit a two-run homer and threw out a runner at the plate, helping the Reds get the win. — Agencies
