at Chicago 7, Cleveland 2: Jermaine Dye hit a go-ahead three-run homer in the sixth inning and hit a solo shot in the seventh to help the White Sox win their seventh consecutive game. Michael Aubrey hit a solo home run in the second for the Indians, who have lost a season-high five games in a row.

at New York 8, Baltimore 0: Alex Rodriguez hit a home run and Darrell Rasner (3-0) won his third consecutive start since being called up from the minors. Rodriguez homered to start the third inning, then hit a ball over the wall in the sixth inning that was ruled a run-scoring double. The Yankees ended a four-game skid.

at Detroit 9, Seattle 4: Marcus Thames hit a grand slam to highlight the Tigers’ seven-run third inning. The Tigers opened their big inning with five consecutive singles against Jarrod Washburn (2-6) before Thames drove his fifth career slam into the bullpen in left field.
