AROUND THE HORN Wednesday's other games

INTERLEAGUE
Dodgers 3, Tigers 1
DETROIT -- Kevin Brown won his National League-best ninth game and Fred McGriff's go-ahead single moved him into a tie with Joe DiMaggio on the all-time RBI list. McGriff knocked in Brian Jordan in the fourth inning to give Los Angeles a 2-1 lead. It was McGriff's 1,537th RBI, tying DiMaggio for 36th place. That was all the cushion Brown (9-1) needed in breaking a tie with St. Louis' Woody Williams and Colorado's Shawn Chacon for the most wins in the NL. He gave up one run on five hits and three walks while striking out seven over seven innings. Eric Gagne pitched a perfect ninth for his 23rd save.
Red Sox 13, Cardinals 1
BOSTON -- Pedro Martinez pitched three innings in his return from the disabled list for Boston, which had a season-high 19 hits. The Red Sox scored seven runs in the second inning and had at least eight runs for the fifth time in seven games. Martinez struck out three and allowed two hits and no walks. He was replaced, as planned, by John Burkett (4-3) to start the fourth.
Reds 7, Devil Rays 6
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Kelly Stinnett hit a grand slam and Aaron Boone snapped a ninth-inning tie with an RBI single as Cincinnati handed Tampa Bay its season-high sixth straight loss.

Mets 8, Rangers 2
ARLINGTON, Texas -- Cliff Floyd homered and drove in five runs to back another solid outing by Mets rookie Jae Weong Seo. Floyd, who finished 3-for-4, put the Mets ahead to stay with a two-run single in the first. He hit his 13th homer in the seventh, a two-run shot that made it 8-2. Seo (4-2) struck out six and scattered eight hits, allowing just two runs over seven innings.
Giants 11, White Sox 4
CHICAGO -- Rookie Jesse Foppert pitched one-hit ball into the eighth inning, and Pedro Feliz hit a grand slam for San Francisco.

Diamondbacks 4, Royals 3
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Arizona rookie Andrew Good won his third straight start, allowing two unearned runs in six innings. Good (3-1) gave up five hits in the first three innings, but allowed only an infield single after that. It was 2-2 in the seventh when Quinton McCracken doubled with one out off Darrell May (0-3).
