Butler hits two homers in Royals win
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kansas City Royals' Billy Butler slides into second for a double as Detroit Tigers shortstop Adam Everett waits for the throw in the third inning on a baseball game Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo.
BY JOHN MARSHALL
Associated Press
The Royals had 11 hits and a rare strong performance from their bullpen to win consecutive games for the first time since July 27-28 against Baltimore.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Billy Butler drove in two runs, Kansas City's bullpen pitched 4 1-3 scoreless innings and the Royals ended the Detroit Tigers' six-game winning streak with a 7-5 victory Tuesday night.
Vasuhiko Yabuta (1-1) allowed two hits in 21 1-3 innings for his second career victory, Roman Colon pitched a perfect eighth and Joakim Soria survived two hits in the ninth for his 23rd save.
The AL. Central-leading Tigers scored five runs off Royals starter Bruce Chen, but went through six pitchers and had two costly outfield miscues.
Marcus Thames and Aubrey Huff drove in two runs each and Ryan Raburn homered for Detroit.
Butler had two homers and four RBIs Monday night against the Los Angeles Angels and kept his hot streak going with a double, sacrifice fly and run-scoring single off Bobby Seay (5-3) in the seventh.
Detroit starter Rick Porcello wasn't sharp, but gave the Tigers a chance.
The rookie right-hander gave up two runs in the second inning on Brayan Pena's double and a ground-out by Yuniesky Betancourt. In the fifth, a misjudged fly by Raburn
in left turned into a double for Josh Anderson, then Mitch Maier knocked him in with a soft double to center. Butler's warning-track sacrifice fly cut Detroit's lead to 5-4.
Porcello was lifted after Betancourt's leadoff single in the seventh. He allowed four and seven hits, leaving with a 5-4 lead.
Detroit's bullpen — thanks to a miscue by right fielder Clete Thomas — couldn't hold it.
Raburn did his job on David
Deleses' single, double-clutching
and still getting Betancourt by two steps at the plate. Thomas, worried about the wall, didn't get a glove on Butler's foul ball in the corner. Two pitches later, Butler lined a run-scoring single through the right side and Mike Jacobs followed with an RBI single that made it 6-5.
Defesus sacrifice fly — and another close play at the plate involving Betancourt and Raburn — gave the Royals a two-run lead in the eighth.
(shoulder fatigue) for his first start since he ended a four year winless streak on Aug. 6. The left-hander didn't really stand a chance to make it two straight.
Chen, who allowed five runs and seven hits, replaced Brian Bannister
Thames hit a run-scoring single off him in the first and Tigers got two more in the third when Raburn led off with his 11th homer and Thames hit a sacrifice fly. Huff chased Chen with two outs in the fifth, looping a two-run, broken-bat single to center to put Detroit up 5-2.
Martinez shines in Phillies' win over Nationals
MLB
BY JOSEPH WHITE
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Philadelphia Phillies hit five solo home runs — including three in the seventh inning — and became the 12th team in major league history with a 30-homer foursome in Tuesday night's 5-3 win over the Washington Nationals.
Raul ibanez went long for the 29th and 30th times this season and Chase Utlley hit No. 30, joining Ryan Howard (38) and Jayson Werth in Philadelphia's 30-homer club for 2009. Werth hit his 32nd, Carlos Ruiz got his ninth for the Phillies, who snapped a fourgame losing streak.
The power barrage overshadowed another good start from Pedro Martinez (4-0) and a rare hook in the ninth inning after another shaky outing from Brad Lidge. Ryan Madson struck out Ryan Zimmerman with the bases loaded and the winning run on
first and retired cleanup hitter Adam Dunn.
The Phillies, who have the major leagues' highest percentage of runs from homers, became the first team since the 2006 Chicago White Sox to have four 30-homer hitters and accomplished the feat for the first time in franchise history.
Martinez, craftily mixing plenty of off-speed pitches with an occasional low-90s fastball, allowed three runs and seven hits with four strikeouts and one walks over 6 2-3
innings. The Phillies improved to 6-0 when the three-time Cy Young Award winner starts.
Brett Myers followed with 1 1-3 scoreless innings, but Lidge failed to capitalize on the vote of confidence he received before the game from manager Charlie Manuel. Lidge, who had his 10th blown save of the season in his last appearance on Saturday, retired one batter before a single, a hit batter, a wild pitch and a walk.

Rays lose seventh straight ballgame
BY BEN WALKER Associated Press
NEW YORK — Nick Swisher hit his second home run of the game, connecting with one out in the ninth inning to lead the New York Yankees over Tampa Bay 3-2 Tuesday night and send the Rays to their season-high seventh straight loss.
The switch-hitting Swisher connected from both sides of the plate. He won it with a left-handed shot off Dan Wheeler (4-4).
Derek jeter struck out three times and remained stuck in his longest slump of the year, moving no closer to the Yankees hit record held by Lou Gehrig.
Rays rookie David Price fanned Jeter his first three times up, twice catching him looking. The Yankees star had nothing to show for four at-bats, leaving him in, an 0-for-12 rut and still four hits from surpassing Gehrig's total of 2,721.
Mariano Rivera (2-2) pitched a perfect ninth as the Yankees won for the 12th time in 15 games and got their major league-leading 90th win of the season, surpassing last year's total.
Swisher homered in the second and Alex Rodriguez had an
RBJ single in the sixth. Swisher has three multihomer games this season — he connected lefty and righty each time. Of Swisher's 26 homers this season, only five have come at hitter-friendly Yankee Stadium.
Jason Bartlett greeted Yankees reliever Phil Hughes with a lead-off home run in the eighth, tying it at 2. Evan Longoria hit his 30th homer the previous inning off starter Chad Gaudin.
Plagued by deep pitch counts earlier in the year. Price came out throwing strikes. He gave up only three hits in six innings, walked two and struck out six.
Randy Choate retired Jeter on a lineout leading off the eighth, then made the defensive play of the game.
Gaudin took a 2-0 lead into the seventh. His winless streak reached 10 starts, before he was traded from San Diego to the Yankees in early August.
Gaudin helped himself by picking off speedster Carl Crawford at first base with a quick move in the sixth. Crawford also got trapped after a triple in the opening inning, taking off on Longoria's grounder and getting tagged out in a rundown.
