ATHLETICS 5, ROYALS 1 Late Friday


Gio Gonzalez outdueled Zack Greinke and Oakland caught a break in the first in- ning en route to a victory over Kansas City, disappointing a rare Kauffman Stadium sellout crowd.


Leading off the game, the Athletics’ Coco Crisp was awarded a double on a re- versed call after first base um- pire Larry Vanover first ruled a foul ball on Crisp’s liner down the right field line. Oakland Manager Bob Geren came out to argue, the umpires huddled, and the call was reversed. Oakland

Reid Brignac had his first two-homer game and drove in a career-high five runs and Car- los Pena homered and had three RBI, helping Tampa Bay silence New York. Hours earlier, the Yankees paid tribute to longtime public address announcer Bob Shep- pard during Old-Timers Day fes- tivities. Sheppard died last Sunday at 99.

Carl Pavano picked up right


where he left off before the all- star break, pitching a complete game for Minnesota in a win over Chicago. Pavano prompted a rousing


ovation from the sellout crowd at Target Field when he re- turned to the mound for the ninth inning, and he complied with his fourth complete game this season. While the rest of the Twins


starters struggled often in the first half, Pavano and his mus- tache helped keep Minnesota afloat. White Sox LHP Mark Buehrle went the distance for the first time this year. Chicago

bered into third base with an eighth-inning drive over the head of CF Eric Patterson. A few pitches later, he left the game with tightness in his right quadriceps. Texas

TWINS 7, WHITE SOX 4 Late Friday


Francisco Liriano gave Min- nesota a big lift on the mound, and faulty fielding by Chicago led to the end of its nine-game winning streak.


Liriano left with two outs in the eighth inning to a standing ovation from the Target Field fans on a warm and muggy night, deprived lately of this kind of dominant performance. The Twins had lost Liriano’s last five starts. The White Sox made four er- rors, and Gavin Floyd gave up four runs in the fourth inning. Chicago

Jered Weaver outpitched Fe- lix Hernandez for the third time this season in a matchup of the AL’s strikeout leaders and Los Angeles beat Seattle. Weaver had five strikeouts,


increasing his major league- leading total to 142. The RHP is trying to become the first An- gels pitcher to lead the majors in strikeouts since 1977, when all-time strikeout king Nolan Ryan had 341. Weaver did not issue a walk against an offense that has scored fewer runs than any team in the majors except Pittsburgh. Seattle
