AROUND THE HORN | Tuesday's other games

American League
Red Sox 4, Orioles 1
BALTIMORE -- Curt Schilling allowed one run over six innings to win his Boston debut and Kevin Millar homered for Boston. It was the first win with the Red Sox for manager Terry Francona, and Lee Mazzilli's initial loss as manager of the Orioles. Boston avoided its first 0-2 start since 1996. Keith Foulke got three outs for his first save with the Red Sox. Baltimore starter Eric DuBose (0-1) allowed three runs and four hits in 51/3 innings.
Angels 10, Mariners 5
SEATTLE -- Bartolo Colon and Vladimir Guerrero got the Anaheim Angels off to a fast start. Colon won his Anaheim debut and Troy Glaus homered twice. Guerrero, also playing his first game with Anaheim, hit a two-run double off the center-field wall to put the Angels ahead 10-1 in the eighth. He went 1-for-4 with a walk and a run scored. The new-look Angels roughed up 21-game winner Jamie Moyer, who was knocked out in the sixth inning. Colon held Seattle to an unearned run and five hits in six innings. He struck out five and allowed just one baserunner after the second. Glaus drove in four runs. Jose Molina also homered for Anaheim.
Devil Rays 9, Yankees 4
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Alex Rodriguez hit his first home run for the New York Yankees, but Mike Mussina couldn't hold an early four-run lead against Tampa Bay. Victor Zambrano gave up the first-inning homer to Rodriguez and another to Gary Sheffield, then found a way to keep the rest of the Yankees' powerful lineup quiet, beating the defending AL champions for the second time this season. Julio Lugo hit a two-run homer and Jose Cruz Jr. went 4-for-5 with an RBI to deny Mussina in his fourth bid to become the 100th pitcher in major league history with 200 career victories. Tuesday night's re-opener drew a crowd of 41,755, announced as just the second home sellout in Devil Rays history, even though it fell well short of the 45,369 that turned out for the expansion club's inaugural game at Tropicana Field in 1998.
Tigers 7, Blue Jays 3
TORONTO -- The Detroit Tigers lost slugger Dmitri Young to a broken right leg, but they beat Toronto to open 2-0 for the first time since 1986. Mike Maroth won his first start of the season in the same ballpark where he lost his 20th game last year, and Ivan Rodriguez hit a two-run double off loser Miguel Batista. Carlos Guillen homered and drove in two runs.
Athletics 3, Rangers 1
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Jermaine Dye hit a two-run homer and Mark Mulder looked like his old self on the mound in Oakland's victory over Texas. A's rookie Bobby Crosby got his first major league hit in the fifth when he lined a single to left. Oakland beat the Rangers for the ninth straight time to match its longest winning streak against Texas.
National League
Marlins 4, Expos 3
MIAMI -- Hee Seop Choi homered and tied a career high with three RBIs, driving in the go-ahead run in the eighth inning to lead the Marlins. Matt Perisho earned the victory by retiring Brian Schneider with the bases loaded to end the eighth, and Armando Benitez survived Jose Vidro's homer and Carl Everett's double in the ninth for the save. Josh Beckett allowed one run in seven innings. Luis Ayala was the loser.
Rockies 6, Diamondbacks 2
PHOENIX -- Shawn Estes outpitched Randy Johnson and Colorado won on opening day for the first time in three years. Estes allowed two hits in seven innings and Charles Johnson hit a two-run homer off The Big Unit. Todd Helton was 4-for-4 with a double and scored a run for Colorado.
Mets 7, Braves 2
ATLANTA -- Kaz Matsui homered on the first major league pitch he saw and Tom Glavine beat his former team for the first time, leading New York over Atlanta in their season opener. Mike Piazza hit a long home run off losing pitcher Russ Ortiz for the Mets, coming off consecutive last-place finishes. But Matsui has already made a big difference from the leadoff spot. The rookie shortstop from Japan had a huge game in his big league debut, going 3-for-3 with two doubles, two walks and three RBIs.
Brewers 7, Cardinals 5
ST. LOUIS -- The Milwaukee Brewers got home runs from newcomers Craig Counsell, Lyle Overbay and Chad Moeller in a victory over St. Louis. Winning pitcher Doug Davis worked into the seventh inning and the Brewers battered St. Louis pitching for the second straight day. Milwaukee moved to 2-0 for the first time since 1995, when it won its first three games.
Giants 7, Astros 5
HOUSTON -- Andy Pettitte had Barry Bonds all figured out in his National League debut. If only the left-hander could have solved Neifi Perez. Pettitte, making his first start for the Houston Astros, didn't let Bonds tie Willie Mays for third on the career homer list but did give up a three-run double to the light-hitting Perez in San Francisco's victory. Perez finished 4-for-4 with four RBIs. Pettitte took the loss but left to a warm ovation after yielding six runs and 11 hits in 51/3 innings.
Dodgers 5, Padres 4
LOS ANGELES -- Adrian Beltre hit a tying, two-run homer in the seventh inning, and pinch-hitter Robin Ventura singled home the winning run in the ninth as Los Angeles overcame a four-run deficit and beat San Diego. NL Cy Young Award winner Eric Gagne earned the victory with a hitless ninth inning.
