BALTIMORE - This time, the New York Mets were the ones to benefit from a dropped pop-up.

Baltimore first baseman Aubrey Huff muffed a seventh-inning pop down the right-field line that produced two unearned runs, and the Mets beat the bumbling Orioles, 6-4, last night.

Three Baltimore errors led to three tainted Mets runs, helping Mike Pelfrey (5-2) earn his first win in more than five weeks.

Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez gave up a bases-loaded walk to Ty Wigginton and a run-scoring groundout to Brian Roberts in the ninth, then struck out Adam Jones with two runners in scoring position for his 17th save in 18 opportunities.

New York had lost eight of 12, including two of three to the hated Yankees over the weekend. But after a day off, they enjoyed a reversal of fortune against the last-place Orioles.

Red Sox 8, Marlins 2

BOSTON - David Ortiz homered to start a six-run inning, then added a two-run single as Boston beat Florida.

Tim Wakefield (9-3) improved to 6-0 at Fenway Park this season.

Chris Volstad (4-7) allowed nine hits and a career-high eight runs before he was chased in the fourth, when the Red Sox sent 11 batters to the plate. It was his fourth consecutive loss.

Ortiz, who did not homer in the first six weeks of the season, now has five for the year - four of them in the last nine games. His batting average is back up to .210 - still 73 points below his career average, but at least not below the Mendoza line, .200, where he stayed for most of the last month.

Yankees 5, Nationals 3

NEW YORK - Robinson Cano hit a tiebreaking double in the seventh inning and matched a career high with four hits, leading CC Sabathia and New York over woeful Washington.

Sabathia (6-4) held Washington in check after light-hitting Anderson Hernandez's three-run homer in the fifth gave the Nationals the lead. The 6-foot-7 lefthander departed after walking Nick Johnson with two outs in the eighth inning and received a standing ovation.

Brian Bruney, activated off the disabled list earlier in the day, made just his second appearance since April 21.

MINNEAPOLIS - Glen Perkins won his first start off the disabled list, Joe Mauer backed him with his second four-hit game of the season, and Minnesota beat Pittsburgh to keep up its impressive interleague play.

Perkins (2-3) had been on the disabled list since May 19 because of left elbow inflammation. Mauer, the defending AL batting champion sidelined in April due to a back injury, had three singles and an RBI double to raise his average to .429.

Rangers 6, Astros 1

ARLINGTON, Texas - Ian Kinsler homered twice and Texas beat Houston, when Ivan Rodriguez matched the major-league record for games caught.

Rodriguez, who began his career at age 19 in 1991, and played 12 seasons in Texas, homered for the Astros.

It was his 2,226th career game behind the plate to tie Hall of Fame catcher Carlton Fisk.

Kinsler, 4 for 33 with no RBIs the previous eight games, put the Rangers ahead to stay with his fourth leadoff homer this season.

He added another solo shot in the second off slumping lefthander Wandy Rodriguez (5-6).
