"It's nice to win a ballgame," Carpenter said. "Fortunately I pitched well enough and we got some really nice hits, some key hits, and then late in the game broke it open. It was nice."

 

"He's had a rough stretch, but we always feel like he's our most dominant pitcher," Skip Schumaker said.

 

He has faced the Orioles 15 times (14 starts) and is 7-4 against them with a 5.10 ERA.

 

"I felt strong, I wished that rain wouldn't have come in," Lohse said. "I felt I could have gotten quite a bit deeper than just five. You can't do anything about the weather, so the rest of the guys came in and did a good job."

 

J.J. Hardy smacked a solo home run and Nick Markakis chipped in a pair of hits for the Orioles, who have lost four of their last six games and six of 10.

 

Tonight, Baltimore will hand the ball to right-hander Chris Jakubauskas, who is 2-0 with a 5.18 ERA. Jakubauskas did not get a decision on Friday against Cincinnati, as he allowed three runs and five hits in five innings of a 5-4 win.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Mets exploded offensively on Tuesday to move above .500 for the first time since the first week of the season. Tonight, they shoot for a series win when they play the middle test of their three-game interleague set against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. Jason Bay and Carlos Beltran each cleared the bases in the fourth and fifth inning, respectively, to break a 299-game drought without a grand slam, as the Mets rolled to a commanding 14-3 win.

 

The large offensive output saw a season-high in hits (18) that included Jose Reyes' 4-for-4 showing at the plate. The victory also put the Mets over the .500 mark (40-39) since the team was 3-2.

 

The offense overshadowed a solid start by R.A. Dickey (4-7), who allowed three runs on 10 hits and struck out six over seven innings.
