Soriano homers lift Yankees past Angels
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 15 - 08 - 2013

NEW YORK — Alfonso Soriano homered twice and drove in a career-high six runs, Alex Rodriguez had a two-run double, and the New York Yankees' bats bailed out a wild CC Sabathia for a 14-7 rout of the Los Angeles Angels Tuesday night.
Vernon Wells homered against his former team, and leadoff batter Eduardo Nunez drove in four runs as New York equaled its highest run total of the season. The second-worst run-producing offense in the AL won by more than three runs for the first time in 26 games. Jason Vargas (6-5) gave up two homers in his first start since having surgery to remove a blood clot from near his left armpit on June 26, including Soriano's go-ahead two-run drive in the fifth. Soriano singled in a run in the Yankees' four-run sixth that broke open a sloppy game, and hit a three-run shot off Joe Blanton in the seventh.
Red Sox 4, Blue Jays 2, 11 innings: Shane Victorino hit a two-run single in the 11th inning and Boston won for the ninth time in its last 13 games at Rogers Center.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia drew a one-out walk off Aaron Loup (4-5) and Will Middlebrooks followed with a single. Jacoby Ellsbury grounded into a fielder's choice, with Middlebrooks forced at second and Saltalamacchia advancing to third. Ellsbury stole second before Victorino grounded a two-run single up the middle. Koji Uehara (3-0) worked 1 1-3 innings for the win. The Blue Jays tied it in the bottom of the eighth when J.P. Arencibia hit a home run.
White Sox 4, Tigers 3, 11 innings: Alejandro De Aza singled in the winning run with the bases loaded in the 11th inning to lift Chicago to a win over Detroit.
Mariners 5, Rays 4: Leadoff hitter Brad Miller homered twice to help Seattle send Tampa Bay to its sixth straight loss.
Indians 5, Twins 2: Zach McAllister won for the first time in almost three months, Ryan Raburn homered and Cleveland beat Minnesota for only its second win in the last nine games.
Astros 5, Athletics 4: Jordan Lyles pitched seven innings for his first win in nearly two months, Brandon Barnes doubled twice and drove in two runs, and Houston beat Oakland to snap a six-game losing streak.
Inter-League
Brewers 5, Rangers 1: Scooter Gennett homered twice, Marco Ewstrada worked six solid innings and Milwaukee ended Texas' eight-game winning streak.
Marlins 1, Royals 0, 10 innings: Christian Yelich singled home the go-ahead run with one out in the 10th inning and Miami beat Kansas City after a tidy matchup of contrasting starters.
D'backs 4, Orioles 3, 11 innings: Paul Goldschmidt hit the first pitch of the 11th inning for a game-ending home run after leading off the ninth with a tying homer, helping Arizona beat Baltimore with a walk off blast for the second straight night. — Agencies
