From the Associated Press

at Chicago 5, Cleveland 1: Mark Buehrle (15-12) won on three days’ rest, Paul Konerko hit his fourth home run in three games and Jermaine Dye had a two-run single to lead the White Sox, who play host to Detroit today in a makeup game. If Chicago wins, it will play host to Minnesota on Tuesday to determine the American League Central winner and opponent for Tampa Bay in the division playoffs.

at Minnesota 6, Kansas City 0: Scott Baker (11-4) scattered four singles over seven shutout innings to help the Twins preserve their half-game lead in the AL Central over Chicago. Delmon Young’s two-run single and Joe Mauer’s two-run triple gave Baker a cushion.

Tampa Bay 8, at Detroit 7 (11 innings): Ben Zobrist hit a go-ahead single in the Rays’ four-run eighth and had a solo home run in the 11th.
