MLB Photos Of The Week

Left fielder Nick Swisher hit an inside-the-park home run on Sunday for the A's, who have won four games in a row after 1-10 skid. The A's swept the Yankees in a three-game series in the Bronx.

With the Red Sox down two runs in the ninth inning, David Ortiz slapped a two-out, two-strike pitch from Rangers closer Akinori Otsuka over the wall for a three-run walk-off homer at Fenway Park on Sunday.

Pedro Martinez and the Mets dealt the Diamondbacks their seventh consecutive loss, this one a 15-2 drubbing at Chase Field.

Gary Matthews Jr. knocked in two runs and had four hits as the Rangers recovered from Big Papi's first-game heroics and pounded the Red Sox 13-6 in the tail end of a doubleheader at Fenway Park.

Diamondbacks pitcher Russ Ortiz (right) surrendered five runs on seven hits as the Diamondbacks were swept in four games by the Mets. The Diamondbacks are 0-6 since reliever Jason Grimsley became embroiled in a performance-enhancing-drugs investigation. The team released Grimsley on Wednesday and is refusing to pay the remainder of his salary.

Jorge Posada came up short on this foul ball, but the Yankees had no problems handling the Red Sox last Monday. The Yankees jumped on starter Josh Beckett and drubbed the Sox 13-5 at Yankee Stadium. Thus far the rivals have split their eight meetings this season and do not meet again until August.

Francisco Liriano, the Twins' 22-year-old left-hander, blanked the Orioles on Sunday, giving up one hit over seven innings. Liriano has been one of the game's dominant young pitchers since entering the starting rotation on May 19.

Royals center fielder David DeJesus watches one of six Devil Rays homers soar out of Kauffman Stadium. Carl Crawford and Jonny Gomes hit two home runs each. The lone bright spot for the Royals was a second-inning triple play.

Roger Clemens struck out 11 hitters over six innings for Class AA Corpus Christi on Sunday as part of his minor league tune-up before joining the Astros' rotation.
