AROUND THE HORN | Sunday's other games

AMERICAN LEAGUE
Royals 7, Tigers 2
DETROIT -- The Tigers became the first team in 34 years to lose 110 games in a season as Kansas City got three RBIs from Angel Berroa. Detroit (38-110) has the most losses since the Montreal Expos and San Diego Padres each went 52-110 in 1969. Jimmy Gobble (4-4) allowed both runs and five hits in seven innings for Kansas City.
Angels 2, Mariners 1
SEATTLE -- Tim Salmon hit a run-scoring single and Scott Spiezio followed with an RBI double in the eighth inning. Seattle came close to tying it in the ninth, putting a runner on third with one out. But Mike Cameron struck out looking against Troy Percival and Randy Winn popped up.
White Sox 7, Red Sox 2
BOSTON -- Mark Buehrle pitched seven innings and Carlos Lee drove in three runs for Chicago. Buehrle (13-13) had a 2-0 lead before he threw his first pitch, thanks to Roberto Alomar's leadoff double and Lee's 30th homer.
Devil Rays 5, Yankees 2
NEW YORK -- Marlon Anderson's two-out single snapped an eighth-inning tie, and Tampa Bay took advantage of a throwing error by Enrique Wilson and New York's shaky bullpen. Toby Hall added a two-run double as the Devil Rays scored three unearned runs in the eighth to end New York's eight-game winning streak.
Orioles 5, Blue Jays 3
TORONTO -- Matt Riley returned to the major leagues after a four-year absence and got his first career win. Riley (1-0) allowed two runs and four hits in five innings, struck out four and walked three. The 24-year-old had not pitched in the major leagues since Sept. 30, 1999.
Athletics 6, Rangers 5
ARLINGTON, Texas -- Eric Chavez drew a bases-loaded walk to cap a three-run seventh as Oakland won its sixth straight.

Giants 5, Brewers 4, 11 innings
SAN FRANCISCO -- Todd Linden hit a bases-loaded single in the 11th off Leo Estrella (6-3). Jose Cruz Jr. homered and drove in two runs for the Giants. Felix Rodriguez (8-2) escaped a bases-loaded jam by striking out Keith Ginter and Brady Clark with 95 mph fastballs.
