Today's scores and summaries:

Twins 3, Red Sox 2 at Boston (night game):
A two-run homer by Gary Gaetti in the fourth inning was the key blow as the Twins edged the Red Sox, 3-2, ending Boston's winning streak at five games. Doug Corbett pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the seventh inning to earn his third save.

White Sox 4, Blue Jays 1 at Chicago (night game):
Homers by Harold Baines, Jim Morrison and Bill Almon -- all in one inning -- powered the White Sox to a 4-1 decision over the Blue Jays. Tom Paciorek led off Chicago's seventh with a double and Baines followed with a blast into the upper deck in right field. One out later, Morrison drilled a ball into the upper deck in left. After Roy Lee Jackson relieved Luis Leal on the hill for the Jays, Almon belted another ball into the upper deck in left.

Tigers 6, Rangers 4 at Detroit (night game):
A three-run rally in the eighth inning lifted the Tigers to a 6-4 victory over the Rangers and extended Texas' losing streak to 11 games. The winning surge began with one out when Enos Cabell stretched a hit off shortstop Mark Wagner's glove into a double and went to third on Kirk Gibson's infield single. A single by Jerry Turner scored Cabell and Larry Herndon's single chased Gibson home. When the ball skipped past left fielder Billy Sample, Turner raced all the way around from first. Bill Stein's failure to execute a hit-and-run with the bases loaded and one out in the top of the eighth cost the Rangers a chance to pad their 4-3 lead.

Royals 3, Brewers 2 at Milwaukee (day game):
A pop fly that fell among three fielders resulted in the winning run as the Royals shaded the Brewers, 3-2 in 10 innings. The game was tied, 2-2, when Jamie Quirk drew a one-out walk in the top of the 10th. One out later, Onix Concepcion popped up to short. The ball dropped and rolled past Ben Oglivie for a double, allowing Quirk to score. Dan Quisenberry, who hurled two-hit ball over the final four innings, received credit for his first victory.

Astros 8, Reds 7 at Cincinnati (day game):
A four-run outburst in the sixth inning enabled the Astros to outlast the Reds, 8-7. Houston broke a 3-3 tie in the sixth on Phil Garner's run-scoring groundout, an RBI single by Don Sutton and Terry Puhl's two-run single. The Astros picked up an insurance marker in the seventh on Alan Ashby's triple and a single by Garner. Garner also hit a solo homer in the fourth. The Reds tied a major league record with four sacrifice flies -- by Larry Biittner, Dave Concepcion, Alex Trevino and Cesar Cedeno.

Pirates 4, Braves 2 at Pittsburgh (night game):
Rick Rhoden went 7 1/3 innings to post his first victory of the season and drove in two runs to pace the Pirates to a 4-2 decision over the Braves. Rhoden doubled home a fourth-inning run to give the Bucs a 3-2 lead and delivered a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Jason Thompson, extending his hitting streak to 14 games, went 3-for-3 to become the leading hitter in the league with a .376 average.

Cardinals 7, Cubs 6 at St. Louis (day game):
Two home runs by George Hendrick led the Cardinals to their fourth straight victory, 7-6 over the Cubs. Hendrick's first round-tripper was a solo blast that opened the scoring in the second inning. His second homer came with the bases empty in the seventh and snapped a 6-6 tie. The Cubs took a 6-5 lead in the fifth on a run-scoring groundout by Bump Wills and RBI singles by Junior Kennedy and Keith Moreland before the Redbirds tied the game in the bottom of the frame on Dane Iorg's RBI single.
