CLEVELAND (AP) — Roberto Perez hit a two-run homer in his major league debut, Carlos Santana also
connected and Cleveland scored nine runs in its last two innings at bat to rally past New York.
Asdrubal Cabrera’s bases-loaded triple and Michael Brantley’s sacrifice fly highlighted a four-run
seventh that erased a 3-0 deficit. Brantley, a first-time All-Star this season, added an RBI single in a
five-run eighth, when Perez and Santana homered.
On a conference call during the game, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said right-hander Masahiro
Tanaka has a partially torn ligament in his pitching elbow. The team hopes its rookie sensation will be
able to return this season.
Cashman said Tanaka could be back in six weeks, but didn’t rule out the possibility of Tommy John surgery
if the pitcher doesn’t respond to a rehab program.
Perez also singled in the seventh for his first career hit. Carlos Carrasco (2-3) pitched a scoreless
inning to help the Indians gain a four-game split.
Derek Jeter, playing his final regular-season game in Cleveland, went 2 for 4 in the 1,000th multihit
game of his career. Ichiro Suzuki had a pinch-hit single for his 2,800th major league hit.
Zelous Wheeler hit a two-run homer, and Yankees starter David Phelps took a shutout into the seventh.
Matt Thornton (0-3) toook the loss.
TIGERS 16, ROYALS 4
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Everybody in Detroit’s lineup had at least one hit and scored one run, the
season-best offensive onslaught spurring the rout of Kansas City.
The Tigers established a season-high for runs just two days after their 14-5 blitzing of the Dodgers, and
took a 5 1/2-game lead over the second-place Royals in the AL Central.
Drew Smyly (5-8) allowed four runs on eight hits and a walk in 6 2-3 innings for Detroit.
Jeremy Guthrie (5-8) gave up a career-worst eight earned runs on eight hits, three walks and two hit
batters. He was mercifully pulled with no outs in the fifth, which means the Royals’ veteran has now
allowed 16 earned runs in eight-plus innings covering his last two starts.
CUBS 6, REDS 4, 12 INNINGS
CINCINNATI (AP) — Luis Valbuena hit a tiebreaking, two-run triple in the 12th inning and Chicago avoided
a rare five-game sweep in Cincinnati.
Arismendy Alcantara singled with one out and went to second on Starlin Castro’s two-out infield single.
Valbuena, who was 0 for 4 with three strikeouts, sent a drive to deep right field against J.J. Hoover
(1-6).
Skip Schumaker was unable to catch up with the ball, but Valbuena was thrown out at the plate trying for
an inside-the-park home run.
Alcantara got his first major league hit — a two-run double — and drove in three runs. Blake Parker (1-0)
pitched the last two innings and the Cubs snapped their losing streak at a season-high six games.
Ryan Ludwick homered, but the Reds couldn’t overcome a lineup missing more than half its regulars and the
loss of starter Homer Bailey to a knee injury after five innings.
Gold Glove second baseman Brandon Phillips is expected to miss six weeks after having surgery Friday to
repair torn ligaments in his left thumb.
DODGERS 2, PADRES 1
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Clayton Kershaw’s scoreless streak ended at 41 innings when he gave up a home run to
Chase Headley, but the Los Angeles ace pitched a three-hitter with 11 strikeouts to lead the Dodgers
over the San Diego Padres 2-1 on Thursday night.
Kershaw won his eighth straight start and came within 18 innings of the major league record set by
Dodgers right-hander Orel Hershiser, who threw 59 consecutive shutout innings in 1988.
Headley homered off Kershaw in the sixth, halting the longest scoreless streak in the majors since
Brandon Webb went 42 innings for the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2007.
Kershaw’s run tied Luis Tiant for the fifth-longest in the expansion era (since 1961).
ATHLETICS 6, GIANTS 1
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — All-Star Scott Kazmir struck out nine in seven scoreless innings to help Oakland win
the annual Bay Bridge series.
Josh Donaldson hit a two-run homer and Stephen Vogt drove in three runs for the A’s, who won three of
four in the two-city series that began Monday night in Oakland. The A’s (58-34) have won seven of eight
overall and have matched the best start in Oakland history.
Tim Hudson (7-6) was unable to make it out of the sixth inning and lost his fourth straight decision for
the floundering Giants.
San Francisco has lost 15 of its past 19 home games and hasn’t won consecutive games at AT&T Park
in more than a month.
Kazmir (11-3) allowed three hits and one walk. He has yielded one run or fewer in 11 of 19 starts this
season for a 2.38 ERA.
ORIOLES 4, NATIONALS 3
BALTIMORE (AP) — Steve Pearce homered and scored twice to help Wei-Yin Chen earn his team-high ninth
victory, and Baltimore beat Washington for its eighth win in 10 games.
Adam Jones and Nelson Cruz both drove in a run for the Orioles, who built a 4-0 lead in the third inning
and held on. Baltimore took two of three from the Nationals in this rain-shortened, home-and-home
interleague showdown between division leaders.
Jayson Werth homered for Washington and Ryan Zimmerman had two hits and an RBI.
Chen (9-3) gave up three runs in 5 2-3 innings, improving to 6-1 in 12 starts since May 3. He was 0-2
with a 7.71 ERA in his previous two starts against the Nationals.
After Darren O’Day worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth, Zach Britton got three outs for his
15th save, capping his 22nd consecutive scoreless appearance at home.
Gio Gonzalez (6-5) allowed three earned runs and six hits in 6 2-3 innings. His streak of 22 consecutive
scoreless innings ended when Pearce connected in the first.
TWINS 4, MARINERS 2
SEATTLE (AP) — Kendrys Morales hit a two-run double in the fifth inning to help Minnesota rookie
right-hander Yohan Pino earn his first major league victory.
Morales, who played for the Mariners last season, came up with two outs and runners on first and second.
He lined his double over center fielder James Jones’ extended glove. Both runners scored without a
throw.
Pino (1-2) worked five innings to earn the victory in his fifth big league appearance. Throwing 100
pitches, he allowed one run and seven hits, walked two and struck out four.
Glen Perkins worked the ninth to pick up his 22nd save in 25 opportunities.
Tom Wilhelmsen (1-2), who never had more than a three-inning outing in his career, made his first major
league start after 191 relief appearances for the Mariners. He worked 2 2-3 innings, allowing two runs,
one hit and three walks with three strikeouts.
PHILLIES 9, BREWERS 1
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Jimmy Rollins broke up Matt Garza’s no-hit bid with a single in the seventh before
sparking a seven-run outburst an inning later, helping Philadelphia complete a four-game sweep of
Milwaukee.
Rollins greeted reliever Will Smith in the eighth by singling to left to drive home two runs. Garza (6-6)
had just been pulled from the game to a standing ovation but could only watch from the dugout as his
shutout evaporated.
The Phillies sent 12 batters to the plate in the eighth and got RBI ground-rule doubles from Ryan Howard
and Cody Asche. Philadelphia swept a four-game series for the first time since taking four in Cincinnati
in 2011.
Rookie pitcher David Buchanan (5-5) struck out five in seven innings for the win.
Carlos Gomez homered for the Brewers, clinging to its NL Central lead despite five straight losses and
nine in 10 games.
RED SOX 4, WHITE SOX 3, 10 INNINGS
BOSTON (AP) — Mike Carp’s pinch-hit single in the 10th inning gave Boston its second straight walk-off
victory over Chicago.
Jon Lester struck out 12 in seven innings for the Red Sox, but fellow All-Star Koji Uehara gave up a
tying, two-run homer in the ninth to pinch-hitter Conor Gillaspie — his third long ball in three games
and fourth of the season.
David Ortiz had a two-run double for the Red Sox, who ended their 3-7 homestand on an upswing.
Pinch-hitter Daniel Nava drew a leadoff walk in the 10th and scored the winning run for the second
consecutive game. Ronald Belisario (3-6) took the loss.
Chicago had runners at first and third with two outs in the 10th, but Alexei Ramirez was retired on a
grounder to pitcher Andrew Miller (3-5).
ANGELS 15, RANGERS 6
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — All-Star center fielder Mike Trout had a three-run homer among his four hits for
fast-starting Los Angeles in its drubbing of freefalling Texas.
The first four Angels in the game had hits and scored. It started when Kole Calhoun had a leadoff triple
into the right-field corner, then trotted home on a relay throw that bounced into the seats.
Calhoun had four hits and scored four times while finishing a homer shy of a cycle. He had three hits in
the first three innings for the Angels, who won for the seventh time in eight games.
The Rangers have lost five straight and 19 of 22. They have the worst winning percentage in the majors at
.413 with their 38-54 record.
Hector Santiago (1-7) struck out eight in six innings. The left-hander allowed four runs and five hits.

BRAVES 3, METS 1
NEW YORK (AP) — Aaron Harang allowed four hits in seven innings, and Atlanta used early offense against
Bartolo Colon to avert a four-game sweep by New York.
The Braves snapped a four-game skid and ended the Mets’ season-best, four-game winning streak. New York
hasn’t swept a four-game set from Atlanta since July 1989.
Freddie Freeman had an RBI double in a two-run first. Harang (9-6) won his fourth straight start, beating
the Mets for the second time this season.
Craig Kimbrel worked out of an eighth-inning jam and got four outs for his 28th save in 32 opportunities.

Colon (8-8) hung around for eight innings but lost his third consecutive start.
PIRATES 9, CARDINALS 1
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Edinson Volquez tossed a six-hitter to win his fourth straight start, pitching
Pittsburgh past St. Louis.
Neil Walker, Josh Harrison, Russell Martin and Andrew McCutchen all drove in two runs for the Pirates,
who avoided being swept in the four-game series.
Volquez (8-6) has a 0.90 ERA in winning four consecutive starts for the first time in his career. He
struck out five and walked two.
Shelby Miller (7-8) allowed four runs in five innings.
The Cardinals played without All-Star catcher Yadier Molina, who tore a ligament in his right thumb
Wednesday. Molina will have surgery Friday and is expected to miss 8 to 12 weeks.
