Cincinnati Reds vs New York Mets 6-10
Much of the buzz around Shea Stadium has concerned this weekend's renewal of the Subway Series with the Yankees. That's perfectly understandable, but the Mets felt they had a little unfinished business to settle first. Seven weeks ago, the Cincinnati Reds swept the Mets at Great American Great American Ball Park to open the 2005 season, sending the Mets reeling to what would become an 0-5 start. It might seem like old news now, but the wounds were just as fresh in the Mets' minds as if the sweep had occurred yesterday.
That's why the Mets took a little extra satisfaction in polishing off a series sweep of the Reds on Wednesday at Shea, riding a quality performance from starter Tom Glavine and three New York home runs to a convincing 10-6 win.
"You always like a little payback," Mets manager Willie Randolph said. "We actually thought we played pretty well [in April], we just didn't get the breaks to fall our way. It's not a big, big deal for us, but we wanted to get on a little streak. They swept us, now we've returned the favor."
"Obviously, it was in our minds that our season didn't get off to a very good start in Cincinnati," Glavine said. "Once we got an opportunity to sweep, there was definitely talk today about finishing that business, so to speak."
Coming off seven shutout innings over the Cardinals his last time out, Glavine wasn't quite as fine against the slumping Reds, but rode the Mets' defense to his third victory of the year, firing six innings and allowing two runs while scattering nine hits.
"It'd be nice if you could go out there and every game would be like the last game where everything just kind of flows," Glavine said. "Realistically, that's not going to happen.
"On a day like today, when you're not at your best and you still hold the fort and give your team a chance to win, it goes to show you, mentally, sometimes you don't always have to be as sharp or as fine as you think you need to be."
Without the sharpness or fineness, Glavine floated on choppy waters several times, but each time escaped with minimal damage.
With runners at the corners in the second inning, Glavine coaxed catcher Jason LaRue to bounce into an inning-ending double play. Three innings later, Glavine again benefited from a rally-killer, as Ryan Freel chopped into a controversial 1-2-3 double play that eventually got Reds manager Dave Miley ejected from the game.
Cincinnati would plate one in that fifth frame, a run-scoring single by Sean Casey -- who homered and collected four RBIs -- but Glavine left the bases loaded to sidestep any more scoring.
"[The double play] was big," Glavine said. "In that situation, you're ready for it, but you're not expecting it. In your mind, you're trying to stay out of the big inning."
"There's something to be said about how [Glavine] keeps his cool," Randolph said. "He usually does."
The Mets dodged another bullet in the sixth when Cliff Floyd threw out D'Angelo Jimenez at home plate to end the inning.
"That feels awesome," Floyd said. "It gave us a lift."
Offensively, New York took advantage of four Cincinnati errors and a less-than-stellar outing from left-hander Eric Milton, who defeated the Mets during the season-opening series in April.
Chris Woodward opened the scoring in the second with his first homer of the year, a two-run shot to left, and the Mets extended their lead in the third when Mike Cameron and David Wright each reached on run-scoring defensive miscues.
"Anytime you can get momentum going in against a team that's playing well, it's good for morale," Wright said. "I think we're playing good baseball right now. That's going to win us a lot of ballgames."
Kaz Matsui and Jose Reyes tacked on insurance runs with RBI singles in the sixth, ending the afternoon for Milton (2-5) after 5 1/3 innings and six runs (four earned).
Suddenly-hot catcher Mike Piazza added four hits on the afternoon.
New York plated four runs in the eighth against reliever Danny Graves, an inning that featured home runs by Cameron and Wright. Cincinnati got three runs back in the ninth against reliever Manny Aybar on Casey's fifth hit of the day and a two-run Ken Griffey, Jr. homer.
Reyes tripled and scored twice in a three-hit game, while Matsui collected his fifth RBI of the Reds series. Cincinnati has lost 16 of their first 21 road games for the first time since 1953.
Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox 0-7
Walking off the mound to thunderous applause at U.S. Cellular Field on Wednesday afternoon, Mark Buehrle looked down and saw goosebumps on his arms.
For Buehrle, it would seem second nature to hear that type of appreciation after pitching another gem against the Rangers on Wednesday in the White Sox's 7-0 win. But it doesn't get old.
"When you get a crowd like this to come out and support you -- like they did as soon as Ozzie came out of the dugout and they started going crazy -- it's unbelievable," Buehrle said. "Any time you get a standing ovation, it's always a good feeling."
Buehrle's performance was certainly worthy of the ovation. The southpaw pitched 7 1/3 innings of shutout baseball to notch his seventh win of the season. Buehrle (7-1) gave up nine hits with no walks and two strikeouts.
There seems to be something about day games that brings out the best in the 26-year-old pitcher. In his four previous day games this season, Buehrle owns a 1.72 ERA, allowing only six earned runs.
Wednesday's performance was not one that Buehrle will be keeping in memory for long, though. While the outcome may have been successful, Buehrle felt it didn't come off as well as he would have liked.
"It wasn't as easy as it seemed," Buehrle said. "I gave up nine hits in seven innings and I was just lucky to get two [big] outs. Once guys get on base like that, you have to bear down and not give up that extra hit to give up runs."
Even if Buehrle had not been able to completely shut down the Rangers (21-20), he would have been all right because he got plenty of support from his offense. It was a day of reawakening for many of the White Sox's bats.
The middle of the lineup has struggled recently. Before the game on Wednesday, manager Ozzie Guillen said that he shuffled his batting order a bit to try to get some of the hotter hitters higher up. A.J. Pierzynski was moved into the fifth spot between Paul Konerko and Jermaine Dye to help boost the offense.
Guillen's plan seemed to work pretty well. Pierzynski hit a home run for the fourth consecutive game in the eighth inning, making it the longest home run stretch of his career. Konerko and Dye both emerged from their hitting slumps, each going 3-for-4. All of Dye's hits were doubles, while Konerko hit his 10th home run of the season, a solo shot in the sixth.
"We hope so," Pierzynski said of whether the line-up would continue to heat up. "There was never any panic in here. We always believed we could hit. Jermaine is going to be fine. He's a proven big league hitter -- he's got 10 years of hitting. And Konerko is going to be fine. I don't think anyone is worried about him.
"I think guys are getting comfortable and understanding their roles on the team."
Pierzynski may have felt pretty good about what the team was able to accomplish, but Konerko feels that he is not quite ready to say he's back on track just yet.
"I swung well today, felt good up there and had good rhythm," Konerko said. "But I'm not out of the woods yet. I have to keep working.
The Sox (29-12) put on a scoring bonanza in the fourth to take the early lead. Aaron Rowand started things off with a double, which extended his hitting streak to a career-high 12 games. Konerko singled and Texas starter Ryan Drese walked Pierzynski to load the bases. With only one out, Dye hit a double down the left field line to put the Sox up 2-0. One batter later, Juan Uribe hit a two-RBI single for a 4-0 lead.
Even though Guillen and the rest of the club seemed happy with the increased offensive production, it was Buehrle's shutout of a potent Texas lineup that seemed to impress the players most.
"Buehrle deserves all the credit today," Pierzynski said. "Against that lineup to pitch the way he did and to shut them out, that's impressive.
"Buehrle's a guy, when he's on, he can do what he did today, get a lot of ground balls, get popups, change speeds well, throw strikes and work fast. He's the ideal pitcher. Him following [Jon] Garland, that's a pretty good combination."
After Buehrle's win on Wednesday, he and Garland have combined for 15 wins this season. With Buehrle and Garland both near the top of the American League in wins, has it crossed Buehrle's mind what it would be like to share an All-Star experience with one of his good friends?
"It's in the back of your head but we've still got a month and a half left," Buehrle said. "You can go out there and have three or four bad starts. Right now it looks good but I've got 7-8 starts left. If anything happens to us, we have a lot of guys on this team right now that have All-Star numbers, so we'll see what happens."
Boston Red Sox vs Oakland Athletics 6-13
The heavy metal vibrated across the Red Sox clubhouse Wednesday morning, giving the most clear indication possible that veteran left-hander David Wells was making his return from the 15-day disabled list.
However, those loud tunes didn't quite compare with some of the hits that rocked off of Oakland's bats. This was an outing that is sure to make Wells be extra antsy for his next start, which is scheduled for Tuesday night in Toronto.
Wells simply didn't have it, being rocked for nine hits and seven runs over 1 1/3 innings, setting the tone on a day the Sox were belted by the A's, 13-6, at McAfee Coliseum. On Friday, Wells will turn 42, and he had to feel that old in this one. He was pelted for four runs in the first inning and three more in the second in his shortest outing since June 18, 2001, when he was with the White Sox.
"It's one of those things where you want to find a hole and crawl in it, but I'm not that type of person," said Wells, who fell to 2-4 and his ERA rocketed to 6.75. "I'll rebound. I'll go back out and be a lot better than I was today. A bad day is a bad day. You can't do anything else about it. You have to hang with 'em."
It all started very innocently, with Mark Kotsay opening up the Oakland first by dropping down a bunt single. Then Eric Byrnes -- who had four hits on the day -- smacked a single to left and Jason Kendall lofted a basehit to left to load them up with nobody out. Oakland scored its first two runs on a fielder's choice and a sac fly. But then the hard hits started coming, with Scott Hatteberg roping a double to right to make it 3-0 and Erubiel Durazo capping the four-run first with an RBI single to center.
Wells retired the No. 9 hitter, Matt Watson, to buy himself another inning. But it didn't last very long.
Byrnes pestered Wells for an 11-pitch at-bat and then stroked a single to left, giving the lefty his first real inkling that this wasn't going to be his day.
"I was backing up all the bases," said Wells. "That's something you don't want to do. You want to go out there and find a groove and stay in it. I threw about 10 or 12 pitches to Byrnes and he jams one in. That's when you know the day is going bad. You throw everything but the kitchen sink at him and then he bloops one in. That's not a good sign at all, period."
The pitch that that sent Wells to the showers was a cutter that Eric Chavez hammered for a three-run homer. That was the end of a 49-pitch outing for Wells, who hoped to throw as many as 100 pitches in his comeback from a sprained right foot.
"It got away so quickly that he just never got a chance to get his feet on the ground," said Sox manager Terry Francona. "Once Chavez hit the home run to make it 7-0, it just seemed silly to leave him out there any longer."
Wells did not make a Minor League rehab stint despite not pitching since April 25. Of course, in the aftermath of a performance like Wednesday's, that decision was all too convenient to second guess. However, Francona pointed to Wells having the same layoff last year and returning by blanking the Red Sox and Yankees in consecutive starts on the road.
"I don't second guess pitching him," Francona said. "I wish the results would have been different."
It capped a 2-4 road trip for the Sox, who will gladly return to Fenway Park for a three-game series against the Braves on Friday night.
The Sox gave scheduled starts off to shortstop Edgar Renteria and third baseman Bill Mueller. But for the final few innings, the disparity in the score also had catcher Jason Varitek and left fielder Manny Ramirez taking some time off in what was simply a day to forget for the Sox.
Meanwhile, the A's, who entered this series with an eight-game losing streak, were able to get back on their feet. In this one, they got a strong start from Seth Etherton, who was making his first appearance in the Major Leagues this season. The Sox got solo homers from Varitek and Mark Bellhorn.
Jeremi Gonzalez (3 2/3 innings, six hits, three runs) and John Halama (two innings, four hits, three runs) were both hit hard after the exit of Wells.
The Sox were set to fly home after the game, giving them plenty of time to forget about the onslaught the A's put on them.
Nobody was particularly worried about Wells, who has taken his share of lumps in a career that has had a lot more good than bad.
"He's a veteran pitcher and he knows what he needs to do," said Sox center fielder Johnny Damon. "It was his first game back, so we're not too worried about it. He was awful, he'll admit it and that's that."
"I felt good, my foot didn't bother me," said Wells. "The next one will obviously be a lot better than this one."
And that was the only good part of an otherwise dreadful day for Wells. The next time around can only be better.
