Mariners by a score of 9 to 8 at Minute Maid Park.
 
Wandy Rodriguez(1-2) got the win but did not look spectacular.  He gave up 9

was able to put down the rally.  
 
Mark Melancon got the save, his 9th. Charlie Furbush(1-3) took the loss.  He
got hit pretty hard, allowing 8 hits and 2 walks in 4 innings.  
 
'I didn't have my best stuff but sometimes you just get lucky,' Rodriguez
said, 'this was one of those times.'

The Seattle Mariners and the Chicago (AL) Whitesox locked up in an exciting
one-run game at US Cellular Field.  The final score was the Seattle Mariners
8, the Chicago (AL) Whitesox 7.
 
Seattle took the lead for good in the 2nd inning when they scored 2 runs on 2
hits.  The crucial at-bat was provided by Franklin Gutierrez who helped quiet
the crowd when he doubled bringing home two baserunners.  Chicago (AL) had a
chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short.  
 
The victory was credited to Jason Vargas(5-2) who went 5 innings, allowing 2
runs. Brandon League was credited with his 5th save.  Philip Humber(2-5) was
hit with the loss.  He allowed a few too many baserunners giving up 7 hits
and 2 walks in 3 innings.  
 
'I had a little blister on my index finger before the game, but I thought it
was nothing.' Vargas said.  'I was lucky I got a win because I couldn't put
the ball where I wanted it.'

got on base in his perfect 2 innings.  The Detroit batters went down meekly
in the bottom of the 9th.  
 
Simon got relief help from Jim Johnson who gained credit for his 4th save.
Joaquin Benoit(0-1) was the loser in relief.  He allowed 2 runs and 3 hits in
1 and 2/3 innings.

Jeremy Guthrie didn't allow a hit until the 8th inning as the Baltimore
Orioles bested the Seattle Mariners 5 to 0 at SAFECO Field.
 
Guthrie(6-1) was simply too much for the Seattle batters.  He was stingy on
the mound, allowing just 1 hit and 2 walks in 9 innings lowering his ERA from
3.75 to 3.24.  The right-handed Guthrie had his no-hit bid broken up by
Franklin Gutierrez who doubled with two outs in the 8th inning.  Baltimore
totaled 10 hits on the afternoon.  
 
Michael Pineda(2-4) was charged with the loss.  'Guthrie was the man today,'
Craig Lombardi said.  'He had just about every pitch working.'

Third baseman Kevin Youkilis had 2 base hits at Target Field where the
seemingly unstoppable Boston Redsox beat the Minnesota Twins 8 to 1.
 
Boston drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning
scoring 3 runners on 4 hits.  The crucial at-bat was provided by Darnell
McDonald who helped quiet the crowd when he lined a base-hit scoring two
baserunners.  Boston had 12 hits for the game and Minnesota had 4.  
 
The victory was credited to Alfredo Aceves(4-1) who went 4 and 1/3 innings,
allowing no runs. Brian Duensing(0-7) absorbed the loss.  He surrendered 3
runs and 6 hits in 5 innings.
