Orioles 6, Astros 5: Thanks to a two-run double from Melvin Mora in the 8th inning, Tuesday night marked the 16th time this season that Baltimore rallied from a two-run deficit to win a game, tops in the Majors.The Astros have now dropped six straight. George Sherrill picked up his 23rd save (even with a moderate 3.38 ERA).

Rays 3, Cubs 2: In a game that included just five runs, starters Ryan Dempster and Scott Kazmir didn’t pitch past the 5th inning, but it was Kazmir who was a bit more effective, yielding three hits and striking out seven. Cliff Floyd homered against his former team – and used a Rascal to round the bases (I WANNA TELL YOU ABOUT DIABETUS!)

White Sox 16, Pirates 5: There’s something about the White Sox winning games where you think they’re a really good team, but then they lose three straight to a team like the Pirates. Okay, bad example, but you get the idea. Orlando Cabrera had a homer and three RBI and has raised his average from .241 to .269 in the month of June.

A’s 15, Diamondbacks 1: Mark Ellis had two homers and four RBI and the A’s got four more home runs to embarrass the D-Backs at home. Brandon Webb got shelled for seven runs, nine hits and five walks in 3 1/3 innings.

Rangers 7, Braves 5: Milton Bradley tweaked his hammy, which is too bad for the Rangers because he’s been pleasantly productive this year when he’s suppressed the urge to murder. V. Padilla moved to 9-3 on the year, while Tim Hudson fell to 7-5.
