IMMEDIATE PAYOFF

Richie Sexson hit an RBI single in his first at-bat with the Yankees. The Yankees signed the big first baseman who was released by Seattle last week. Sexson slumped badly against right-handed pitching with the Mariners, but hit .344 with five home runs in 71 at-bats against lefties this year.

LOSING

Greg Maddux allowed six runs in four innings of San Diego's 11-7 loss to St. Louis, the shortest outing for the 42-year-old right-hander since last September. He is 0-5 in 13 starts since May 16, tying the longest victory drought of his career, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

SURGE STOPPED

The Mets' 10-game winning streak ended with a 5-2 loss to the Reds.

BACK ON TRACK

The Rays ended their seven-game skid with a 2-1 win over Toronto on Friday night. Six of Tampa Bay's losses during the skid came on the road. Friday's victory improved the Rays' home record to 37-14.

READY?

Red Sox slugger David Ortiz hit his second homer in as many games of his minor league rehabilitation assignment with Triple-A Pawtucket. Ortiz, out of the lineup since May 30, is recovering from a wrist injury.

RUN, SETH, RUN

Seth Smith hit an inside-the-park home run to lead Colorado to a 5-2 win over Pittsburgh. It was the 11th inside-the-park home run in Rockies history and second this season. Jeff Baker had one against Cleveland on June 17. It was the seventh inside-the-park home run hit in Coors Field history.

SMALL BALL

The Reds scored four times in the fifth off Mets starter John Maine despite getting only two balls out of the infield. Ken Griffey Jr. drew a bases-loaded walk, Brandon Phillips lofted a two-run single into shallow right field, and Edwin Encarnacion got hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. Cincinnati beat the Mets 5-2.

STRONG IN DEFEAT

Ivan Rodriguez went 4-for-4 with a homer and two RBIs for the Tigers in a 7-4 loss to Baltimore.

UNDER THE KNIFE

Reds outfielder Ryan Freel will have surgery on Wednesday to repair a torn tendon that attaches to the bottom of his right hamstring. Freel went on the disabled list on June 4 after he injured the hamstring. It's unclear how long he will need to recover.

SPEAKING

“It's not an error, but I think I made the bloopers for life. I had a bad jump, but I still went for it. I missed the ball and that was it. I felt like I was swimming in a swamp right there.” – Boston's Manny Ramirez on his futile dive for a ball he had no chance of catching in the Red Sox's 11-3 loss to Anaheim.
