From the Associated Press

* at Seattle 3, Detroit 2: Rookie Jeff Clement homered in his final two at-bats, the second a two-run shot against Fernando Rodney in the eighth inning. The former USC star’s solo shot in the sixth brought the Mariners to within 2-1 and ended an 0-for-11 skid.

* Texas 5, at Baltimore 3: Scott Feldman, moved up in the rotation after Eric Hurley was scratched because of a hamstring injury, gave up three runs and three hits in the first inning, then blanked the Orioles on two hits over the next five.

* at Chicago 6, Oakland 1: Gavin Floyd pitched 7 1/3 scoreless innings to get his 10th victory. Floyd (10-4), who was 8-10 in his career entering this season, yielded only three singles.
