Suzuki's go-ahead single lifts Yankees over Rays
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 25 - 04 - 2013

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Ichiro Suzuki hit a go-ahead two-run single in the ninth inning and the New York Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 Tuesday.
Robinson Cano ended AL Cy Young Award winner David Price's night with a leadoff single in the ninth. Tampa Bay is winless in all five of Price's starts this year. The left-hander (0-2) allowed three runs and eight hits over eight-plus innings.
After Cano stole second on a pitch by Fernando Rodney that struck out Vernon Wells, pinch-hitter Travis Hafner was intentionally walked and Lyle Overbay walked to load the bases.
First baseman James Loney helped Rodney by making a sliding catch on Chris Stewart's foul ball, but Suzuki then drove in two for a 4-2 lead on a liner to center.
David Robertson (1-0) worked a perfect eighth before Mariano Rivera got his sixth save despite allowing Evan Longoria's leadoff homer.
Orioles 4, Blue Jays 3: Manny Machado had two hits and two RBIs, and Baltimore used a four-run second inning to beat R.A. Dickey and Toronto.
Miguel Gonzalez (2-1) allowed three runs in six innings for the Orioles, who have won nine of 13. By taking the first two games of the three-game set, Baltimore improved to 5-2 in seven series.
Astros 3, Mariners 2: Marwin Gonzalez homered, Bud Norris rebounded from a tough start last time out and Houston snapped a three-game skid with a victory over Seattle.
Athletics 13, Red Sox 0 (7 innings): Brandon Moss hit a two-run single to spark a six-run third inning, Seth Smith homered and Bartolo Colon tossed his first shutout since 2011 as visiting Oakland routed Boston in a rain-shortened game.
National League
Braves 4, Rockies 3 (1st game); Braves 10, Rockies 2 (2nd game): B.J. Upton and his brother Justin hit back-to-back homers for the first time, leading the Atlanta Braves past the Colorado Rockies 10-2 Tuesday night to complete a doubleheader sweep that began with the coldest game at Coors Field.
It was the 27th time in major league history that brothers homered in the same game, but only the second time they went deep in consecutive at-bats. Lloyd and Paul Waner of the Pittsburgh Pirates also accomplished the feat on Sept. 15, 1938.
Cardinals 2, Nationals 0: Adam Wainwright extended his sterling start to the season — and Washington's mediocre one — by coming within two outs of his second shutout for St. Louis.
The Nationals, who led the majors with 98 wins last season and were a popular pick to do well in 2013, lost for the eighth time in their past 11 games to fall to 10-10.
Cubs 4, Reds 2, 10 innings: Carlos Marmol blew a lead in the ninth inning before Darwin Barney bailed him out with a homer in the 10th that lifted Chicago over Cincinnati.
Chicago ended its four-game losing streak after squandering a late lead for the second straight day. Pirates 2, Phillies 0: Jeff Locke pitched six innings of two-hit ball and Gaby Sanchez homered off Cole Hamels to lead Pittsburgh over Philadelphia.
Dodgers 7, Mets 2: Mark Ellis lined two home runs and hit a hard grounder that sent Mets starter Jonathon Niese limping off for X-rays, leading Los Angeles over New York.
Brewers 6, Padres 3: Yuniesky Betancourt and Jonathan Lucroy had two RBIs apiece in a five-run second inning as visiting Milwaukee downed San Diego for their ninth straight victory.
Inter-League
Twins 4, Marlins 3 (1st game); Marlins 8, Twins 5 (2nd game): Oswaldo Arcia hit his first career home run and Kevin Correia gave up two runs in seven innings, leading Minnesota over Miami in the opener of a day-night doubleheader.
The Marlins' offense finally showed some life in the nightcap with an 8-5 victory. — Agencies
