Chisox rally on Greinke, beat Royals
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Chris Getz completed a Chicago comeback with a tiebreaking two-run single in the ninth inning as the White Sox rallied for a 7-4 victory yesterday, completing their first three-game sweep in Kansas City since 2005 and thwarting Zack Greinke's bid for a major-league-leading ninth win.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Chris Getz completed a Chicago comeback with a tiebreaking two-run single in the ninth inning as the White Sox rallied for a 7-4 victory yesterday, completing their first three-game sweep in Kansas City since 2005 and thwarting Zack Greinke's bid for a major-league-leading ninth win.
"Zack's human. He's not going to throw a shutout every time," Royals centerfielder Willie Bloomquist said.
Scott Podsednik singled, doubled, and tripled and scored two runs, and A.J. Pierzynski was 2 for 3 against Greinke, who had trouble with his usually reliable slider and remained 8-1.
Kansas City reliever John Bale came in with one out in the ninth and gave up Pierzynski's single just inches fair into left, then walked Brian Anderson. After Juan Cruz walked Josh Fields, Getz singled into right. While Fields was out at third base, Getz took second. He scored on Podsednik's single.

BALTIMORE - Edwin Jackson allowed two hits over eight innings, and Curtis Granderson, starting in the cleanup spot for the first time in his career, homered to earn Detroit a split of a four-game series.
Jackson permitted only three runners and faced only two batters over the minimum. Nick Markakis hit a fourth-inning single, Robert Andino walked in the sixth and was caught stealing, and Ty Wigginton doubled in the eighth. It was Detroit's major-league-high seventh shutout this season.
Granderson's solo shot was the only glaring blemish for Baltimore rookie Jason Berken in his second big-league start.

TORONTO - Kevin Youkilis homered twice, Dustin Pedroia hit a three-run shot, and Jon Lester struck out a career-high 12 as Boston shuffled its lineup to shake out of an offensive slump.
Pedroia batted leadoff for the first time this season, dropping Jacoby Ellsbury to eighth. Nine of the 11 Red Sox hits were for extra bases, including a double that snapped David Ortiz's 0-for-12 slump in the fourth.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Nick Blackburn pitched six strong innings, and Minnesota scored all its runs off Matt Garza, who was facing his former team for the first time, to avert a weekend sweep.
Carlos Pena hit his league-leading 17th homer for Tampa Bay. Matt Joyce also homered off Blackburn, but Garza - traded to the Rays in November 2007 - could not hold a 2-1 lead after limiting the Twins to two hits over the first five innings.
