The Baltimore Orioles inflicted a first defeat of the season on the Texas Rangers but then felt their wrath in a 13-1 pounding as the two teams played a double-header at Camden Yards.
Following a rain-out yesterday, the teams squared off in the afternoon and Zach Britton tossed 7 2/3 shutout innings to lead Baltimore to a 5-0 win, dropped Texas to 6-1.
But Texas got their revenge in the nightcap, with Adrian Beltre, Mike Napoli and Nelson Cruz going deep in support of Matt Harrison.
Russell Martin smashed two home runs over the Green Monster at Fenway Park, and Curtis Granderson and Robinson Cano also hit homers as the New York Yankees topped the Boston Red Sox 9-4.
Tampa Bay, who like Boston ended their winless start yesterday, likewise could not repeat the trick as they lost 4-2 to the Chicago White Sox despite a strong effort from starter Wade Davis.
Gio Gonzalez edged a pitchers' duel with Nick Blackburn as Oakland beat Minnesota 1-0, with the only run coming on a throwing error from Alexi Casilla.
Bruce Chen struck out seven in six innings as the Kansas City Royals topped the Detroit Tigers 3-1.
The Los Angeles Angels went to a 14th inning before they triumphed 6-5 over the Toronto Blue Jays.
In the National League, the San Francisco Giants collected their world series rings and then enjoyed a walk-off win over the St Louis Cardinals, winning 3-2 after Miguel Tejada's fly-ball was dropped in the outfield, allowing two runs to score in the bottom of the ninth.
Carlos Ruiz had a pinch-hit grand slam as the Philadelphia Phillies pounded the Atlanta Braves 10-2.
Matt Garza struggled again for the Chicago Cubs as Prince Fielder collected four runs in a 6-0 Milwaukee Brewers win.
Ty Wigginton hit a double with the bases loaded in the eighth inning as the Colorado Rockies topped the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-4.
The Los Angeles Dodgers enjoyed a pair of wins over the San Diego Padres, first wrapping up a 4-2 win in the suspended game carried over from Friday night, and then winning the scheduled contest 4-0 as Andre Ethier hit his first home run of the season.
Bronson Arroyo struck out six and held the Arizona Diamondbacks to one run over six innings to lead the Cincinnati Reds to a 6-1 win.
Arizona stayed in the game until their bullpen imploded, allowing four runs in the ninth inning.
Carlos Beltran hit two home runs and Ike Davis came up with a two-run triple as the New York Mets beat the Washington Nationals 8-4.
Greg Dobbs, filling in for the injured Hanley Ramirez, hit a game-tying home run and the Florida Marlins went on to beat the Houston Astros 7-5.

Navdeep Suri, India's Ambassador to the UAE
There has been a longstanding need from the Indian community to have a religious premises where they can practise their beliefs. Currently there is a very, very small temple in Bur Dubai and the community has outgrown this. So this will be a major temple and open to all denominations and a place should reflect India’s diversity.
It fits so well into the UAE’s own commitment to tolerance and pluralism and coming in the year of tolerance gives it that extra dimension.
What we will see on April 20 is the foundation ceremony and we expect a pretty broad cross section of the Indian community to be present, both from the UAE and abroad. The Hindu group that is building the temple will have their holiest leader attending – and we expect very senior representation from the leadership of the UAE.
When the designs were taken to the leadership, there were two clear options. There was a New Jersey model with a rectangular structure with the temple recessed inside so it was not too visible from the outside and another was the Neasden temple in London with the spires in its classical shape. And they said: look we said we wanted a temple so it should look like a temple. So this should be a classical style temple in all its glory.
It is beautifully located - 30 minutes outside of Abu Dhabi and barely 45 minutes to Dubai so it serves the needs of both communities.
This is going to be the big temple where I expect people to come from across the country at major festivals and occasions.
It is hugely important – it will take a couple of years to complete given the scale. It is going to be remarkable and will contribute something not just to the landscape in terms of visual architecture but also to the ethos. Here will be a real representation of UAE’s pluralism.
