Aaron Hill hit a two-run home run and Toronto beat San Francisco. Hill broke a scoreless tie when he connected off Matt Cain with two out in the eighth, for the fifth homer allowed this season by the Giants right- hander. It was the 10th of the year for Hill, and Toronto’s major league-leading 105th. Shawn Camp pitched one in-

ning of relief for the win and Kevin Gregg closed it out in the ninth for his 18th save in 21 chances.

Phillies: Called up C Dane Sardinha from Class AAA Lehigh Valley. Designated RHP Scott Mathieson for assignment. Pirates: LHP Zach Duke will miss his scheduled start Tuesday at Texas because of a strained elbow. He began experiencing discomfort in a 7-2 loss to the White Sox on Wednesday. Red Sox: RF J.D. Drew was out of the lineup against the Dodgers but doesn’t think his right hamstring injury will sideline him for long. He injured it while catching Manny Ramirez’s line drive in the third inning Friday and left the game. Twins: Recalled RHP Jeff Manship from Class AAA Rochester. Optioned IF Trevor Plouffe to Rochester. Yankees: SS Derek Jeter was a late scratch from the lineup because of a bruised right heel, injured while he was running the bases in Friday night’s loss to the Mets.

FRIDAY’S LATE GAME Orioles squander another late lead Baltimore Sun Reprinted from washingtonpost.com

san diego — A rare clutch hit for the Baltimore Ori- oles finally came in the top of the ninth inning when Julio Lugo dropped a two-out single into left field in front of a diving Scott Hairston, scoring Ty Wigginton from second base and giving the Orioles a rare late- inning lead. But if there’s been another main contributing factor to the Orioles’ awful start other than a punchless of- fense, it’s been a failure to get outs late in games. On Friday, it was David Hernandez’s turn to squan- der a one-run lead in the ninth inning and what would have been a feel-good victory against one of baseball’s surprising teams. Hernandez gave up the tying run on David Eckstein’s single and then the game-winner on Adrian Gonzalez’s third hit as the San Diego Padres beat the Orioles, 3-2, at Petco Park and celebrated their eighth walk-off win this season. “It was a very, very hard one to digest,” said Juan Samuel, who is 3-10 as the Orioles’ interim manager. “We did everything possible we could to score a run in that [ninth] inning. Guys battled hard, and to see it end that way, it’s tough.” For the Orioles, it was their 12th blown save in just 23 chances and the first for Hernandez, the former starter who had converted his first two save chances. “Definitely the blame’s on me,” Hernandez said. “I could have made better pitches, especially when I was ahead in the count.” Hernandez allowed four hits in the ninth, but a four- pitch leadoff walk to Chase Headley was the at-bat that he lamented most. “I didn’t even get a pitch near the strike zone,” Her- nandez said. “He didn’t even have to bring a bat up to the plate.”
