Boston: Celebrate against Toronto
Boston gained revenge from their series-opening defeat to the Toronto Blue Jays in the American League with a 14-0 win on Wednesday.
The Red Sox were unable to score a run during an 11-inning loss in the first meeting but on this occasion they romped to victory thanks largely to four-hit games from Marco Scutaro and David Ortiz.
The East-leading New York Yankees extended their winning streak to six games by completing a rain-delayed 5-3 triumph over the Baltimore Orioles.
The Cleveland Indians fell eight and a half games behind Central pace-setters Detroit with a 10-1 loss to the Tigers.
CJ Wilson threw a five-hitter and David Murphy drove in four runs as the West-leading Texas Rangers downed the Tampa Bay Rays 8-0.
The Chicago White Sox posted a second straight shut-out over the Minnesota Twins, winning 3-0 while the Seattle Mariners defeated the Los Angeles Angels 2-1 and the Kansas City Raiders beat the Oakland Athletics 7-4.
Cardinals win
In the National League, Kyle Lohse pitched six shut-out innings and Jon Jay and Matt Holliday homered in the third as the St Louis Cardinals moved back to within nine and a half games of the Milwaukee Brewers with a 4-1 success.
Stephen Strasburg threw 40 of his 56 pitches for strikes in a scoreless five-inning outing, leaving with a lead, but the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied off the Washington Nationals' bullpen for a 7-3 win.
The Colorado Rockies stunned the Arizona Diamondbacks with a seven-run eighth-inning rally en route to an 8-3 victory.
Nick Evans hit three separate tie-breaking RBI singles as the New York Mets to a 7-4 victory over the Florida Marlins in 12 innings at Sun Life Stadium.
Brett Pill homered in his first big league at-bat and fellow rookie Eric Surkamp earned his first victory as Carlos Beltran (three RBI) and the San Francisco Giants beat the San Diego Padres 6-4 and closed their West deficit to six games.
Elsewhere, the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Atlanta Braves 6-3, the Houston Astros beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-1 and the Cincinnati Reds overcame the Chicago Cubs 4-2.
