• Yankees 3, Rays 2: Nick Swisher, the one Yankee to not take advantage of his team's new ballpark, made up for lost time by hitting two home runs, including a walk-off blast. Derek Jeter remained three hits behind Lou Gehrig's franchise-record 2,721. Chad Gaudin pitched six strong innings but wasn't around for the decision. With Boston's win, the Yankees' magic number is 15.
  • Marlins 4, Mets 2: Tim Redding gave up four runs, four hits, four strikeouts and four walks. Hanley Ramirez had a homer for the Marlins, who are still trying to make the postseason. The Mets will try to turn the tables and spoil Florida's season, just as the Marlins spoiled their season the last two years.
