NEW YORK — Melky Cabrera hit a bases-loaded, game-winning single as the Chicago White Sox scored four runs in the bottom of the ninth to rally past the Cleveland Indians 4-3 at US Cellular Field Monday.
Earlier in the inning, Avisail Garcia hit a one-out double off Cody Allen (0-2). Conor Gillaspie followed with a walk, and both runners scored on a double to center field by Alexei Ramirez that made it 3-2.
Three straight singles followed, by Tyler Flowers, Gordon Beckham and Adam Eaton, to score Ramirez with the tying run and load the bases for Cabrera. The veteran left-fielder lofted a liner to left that landed beyond the outfielders, who were playing shallow.
Allen squandered a lead the Indians built while Trevor Bauer threw seven scoreless innings. White Sox starter John Danks allowed three runs in six innings and David Robertson (1-0) threw one shutout inning for the win.
Tigers 2, Yankees 1: Alfredo Simon out-dueled C.C. Sabathia and Yoenis Cespedes drove in the go-ahead run in the seventh as Detroit edged New York.
Simon (3-0) held the Yankees to one run on seven hits in 7-1/3 innings while striking out six. Joakim Soria collected his fifth save.
Cespedes and J.D. Martinez contributed run-scoring singles for the Tigers, who have the league's best record (11-2).
Royals 7, Twins 1: Edinson Volquez pitched seven sharp innings and Kendrys Morales drove in two runs with two hits as Kansas City beat Minnesota. Royals rookie Paulo Orlando added a two-run triple in a three-run eighth. Orlando, who is the only the third major-leaguer born in Brazil and spent nine years in the minors, leads the majors with five triples.
Red Sox 7, Orioles 1 (6 1/2 innings): Mookie Betts scored two runs in Boston's rain-shortened win over Baltimore.
The victory, which came after and a one-hour, 42-minute stoppage due to inclement weather, snapped a two-game skid for the Red Sox and earned them a split in the four-game series.
Astros 7, Mariners 5: Luis Valbuena hit two solo home runs, including the go-ahead shot in the eighth inning, as the American West-leading Houston Astros earned a win over Seattle.
Athletics 6, Angels 3: Stephen Vogt's three-run home run in the third inning propelled Oakland to a 6-3 win over Los Angeles.
National League
Reds 6, Brewers 1: Zack Cozart and Joey Votto hit home runs and rookie Anthony Desclafani threw eight scoreless innings as Cincinnati snapped a four-game losing streak with a victory over Milwaukee.
Descalfani held the Brewers to two hits and a walk while striking out five. He gave up two runs in his first start of the season but has since thrown 15 consecutive scoreless innings.
Cubs 5, Pirates 2: Rookie Kris Bryant hit a tie-breaking, two-run double in the seventh inning, finishing with three hits and three RBIs to lead Chicago past Pittsburgh.
Padres 14, Rockies 3: San Diego piled up 17 hits, including three each by right fielder Matt Kemp, who had four RBIs, and catcher Brad Norris, in a rout of Colorado. — Agencies
