MLB Photos Of The Week
Oakland shortstop Bobby Crosby couldn't catch up with this line drive single by Minnesota's Rondell White. Unfortunately for the Twins, it was one of only five hits Barry Zito and the A's surrendered in Thursday's 4-0 win.
The Phillies have Chase Utley to thank for salvaging a split of their four-game series with the Dodgers. The 27-year-old second baseman hit his 11th home run and doubled home the go-ahead score before bowling over catcher Russell Martin for another run as the Phillies won 6-4 Sunday in Los Angeles.
Red Sox center fielder Coco Crisp tracked down this deep fly ball in the eighth inning Sunday at Comerica Park. The game remained close until the eighth inning, when Tigers pitcher Jason Grilli failed to record an out and Boston opened up an 8-3 lead, taking two out of three games in Detroit.
David Wright smoked two homers Sunday against the Giants at Shea Stadium.
Orlando Hernandez lost his home debut for the Mets, surrendering five runs on eight hits in the first game of a double-header against the Giants.
The Giants turned to Pedro Feliz to pick up the slack for a homerless Barry Bonds whose RBI single in the 12th inning gave the Giants a 7-6 victory over the Mets.
In the eleventh frame, rookie Lastings Milledge scored on a shallow sacrifice fly, giving the Mets a split with the Giants in an rain-delayed doubleheader at Shea Stadium. The Mets lead the majors with 17 one-run victories this season.
San Diego's Brian Giles helped out his young pitcher, Chris Young, with this spectacular catch Sunday in Pittsburgh. Five days removed from throwing eight no-hit innings, the 6-foot-10 right-hander allowed only two hits over eight innings to the Pirates as the Padres won 1-0.
Casey Blake made a nice diving catch during the second inning of Sunday's game in Cleveland. The Indians, however, were pounded by the Angels 14-2, only one night after they had won by the same score.
