AMERICAN LEAGUE
Yankees 19, Devil Rays 8
NEW YORK -- Alex Rodriguez, Tino Martinez and the Yankees broke out for 13 runs in a record-setting second inning. One day after owner George Steinbrenner lashed out at his $200 million team for its 4-8 start, Rodriguez homered twice, doubled twice and finished with five hits. He drove in six runs and scored five times. Martinez hit a grand slam and knocked in six runs. Bernie Williams had three hits and Jason Giambi scored three runs, making a winner of Jaret Wright (2-1).

Ramirez hit two homers over the Green Monster to drive in five runs and lost two balls in the sun for a double and a two-base error. It was his second two-homer game in three days and 41st multiple homer game of his career.
Tigers 13, Orioles 3

NATIONAL LEAGUE
Reds 7, Cubs 6
CINCINNATI -- Adam Dunn hit two solo homers off Kerry Wood as Cincinnati rallied. Derrek Lee hit the longest of the Cubs' four homers, a shot that bounced off the batter's eye and out of the park, as Chicago went up 5-1 after three innings. Rich Aurilia's two-run single off Wood tied it at 5-all in the sixth and Chicago's bullpen let it slip away. Jason LaRue hit a go-ahead two-run double in the eighth. Kent Mercker (1-0) pitched two innings for the win and Danny Graves finished it for his fifth save. Corey Patterson, Aramis Ramirez and Jeromy Burnitz also homered for the Cubs.
Phillies 5, Mets 4
PHILADELPHIA -- Randy Wolf took a shutout into the ninth inning, and Philadelphia's bullpen barely held on. Pat Burrell homered and had two RBIs, extending his NL-leading total to 19, and David Bell had a pair of RBI doubles, helping the Phillies win their third straight. Wolf (1-1) allowed three runs and nine hits, while striking out five. Kaz Ishii (0-2) gave up five runs, six hits and walked six in five innings for New York. Tim Worrell surrendered a three-run homer to Cliff Floyd in the ninth before earning the save.
Dodgers 7, Brewers 3
MILWAUKEE -- Odalis Perez didn't allow a hit until Junior Spivey doubled in the seventh inning, and Milton Bradley hit home runs from both sides of the plate to lead Los Angeles. The Dodgers, who got consecutive homers from Bradley and Jason Repko, won their sixth straight and at 10-2 is off to their best 12-game start since 1981. Perez (3-0) at one point retired straight 15 batters and left after allowing two runs and one hit in 6 1/3 innings.
Marlins 9, Nationals 4
WASHINGTON -- Dontrelle Willis allowed his first three runs of the season, but Florida batted around in the seventh to hand Washington its first loss at home. Willis extended his scoreless streak to 24 innings before allowing Jose Vidro's lead-off homer in the seventh.

Willis (3-0) allowed three runs and six hits in six innings.
Braves 1, Astros 0, 12 innings

Chris Reitsma escaped a no-out, bases-loaded jam in the 10th and Jorge Sosa (1-0) pitched a perfect 11th for the win. Hudson lasted into the 10th innings, allowing four hits while striking out nine. Clemens pitched seven-plus innings, surrendering five hits.
