Wang dominates from mound

Published in The Saudi Gazette on 13 - 04 - 2008

Ming Wang gave up only a home run and a bunt single Friday as the Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox 4-1.
The home run was almost caught, and Wang allowed only one other runner, on an error. In his previous start, he went six innings in the Yankees' 2-0 win over Tampa Bay. A leadoff homer in the seventh put New York up 2-1, they added another later in the inning and their fourth run in the ninth.
Athletics 9, Indians 7: In Cleveland, C.C. Sabathia was pounded for nine runs in his shortest outing in nearly two years as Oakland beat Cleveland.
Sabathia was pulled after 3 1-3 innings, but by then three A's had driven in two runs apiece. It was Sabathia's shortest start since yielding nine runs in 2 1-3 innings to the Chicago Cubs in June 2006.
Rays 10, Orioles 5: In St. Petersburg, Florida, Carlos Pena homered twice and drew a bases-loaded walk in the eighth inning to finish with six RBIs as Tampa Bay downed Baltimore.
Pena hit a two-run homer in the first, made it 5-5 in the seventh with a three-run shot, and then drew the bases-loaded walk on a check swing that could have been called a third strike to put Tampa Bay ahead 6-5.
Rays reliever Al Reyes pitched two-thirds of an inning to get the win after being arrested early Friday at a Tampa bar and charged with being in a fight that disturbed the peace.
Other results: Twins 5, Royals 0; Blue Jays 8, Rangers 5; Tigers 5, White Sox 2; Mariners 8, Angels 5.Phillies end Cubs' run
The Philadelphia Phillies snapped the Chicago Cubs' five-game winning streak with a 5-3 victory in the National League on Friday.
Pat Burrell hit a two-run homer and a tiebreaking double in the sixth inning for Philadelphia.
Mets 4, Brewers 2: In New York, the home side got its third straight win by beating Milwaukee. Pitcher Nelson Figueroa earned his first major league win in five years, and the Mets got a good effort from their bullpen.
The Brewers dropped their third straight after opening the season 6-1.
Braves 3, Nationals 0: In Washington, pitcher Tim Hudson allowed only three hits over eight innings as Atlanta shut out Washington.
Hudson improved to 6-1 all-time against the Nationals and won a classic pitching duel with Washington's Matt Chico.
Pirates 1, Reds 0: In Pittsburgh, Jason Bay hit a home run in the sixth inning to give Pittsburgh a rain-soaked win over Cincinnati. The Pirates ended a three-game losing streak and won for the first time at home this season.
Marlins 10, Astros 6: In Houston, Florida hit a team-record six home runs to sink Houston and record its fourth straight win. Jeremy Hermida hit two homers for the Marlins in his first multi-homer game in the major league.
Other results: Diamondbacks 8, Rockies 2; Cardinals 8, Giants 2; Padres 7, Dodgers 5. __
