* at Cleveland 8, Chicago 2: Franklin Gutierrez hit a grand slam in the first inning and the Indians were credited with a rare triple steal in a victory. With the bases loaded in the sixth inning, White Sox pitcher Ehren Wasserman faked a throw to third and threw to first, which caught Jamey Carroll off the bag. First baseman Paul Konerko got Carroll in a brief rundown. David Dellucci broke from third and Konerko’s throw to catcher Toby Hall was in the dirt, allowing Dellucci to score. Dellucci, Carroll and Grady Sizemore, who was on second when the play began, were given stolen bases. The last triple steal came on Oct. 1, 1987, by Atlanta against Houston.

* at Baltimore 10, New York 9 (11 innings): After the last-place Yankees blew two four-run leads, Aubrey Huff doubled in the tiebreaking run in the 11th inning and scored the game-winner for the Orioles on a long single by Alex Cintron. Alex Rodriguez hit his 525th career home run but made two poor throws from third base.

* Texas 12, at Tampa Bay 6: Former Tampa Bay prospect Josh Hamilton hit a grand slam to help Vicente Padilla (7-2) and the Rangers cool off the Rays, who had won four in a row.
