SCOREBOARDTuesday, June 10Baltimore at Boston (7:05 p.m. EDT). Josh Beckett (6-4, 4.07 ERA) leads the Red Sox against Daniel Cabrera (5-2, 3.98) in the opener of the AL East rivals' three-game series.STARSMonday• Jose Guillen, Royals, hit a tiebreaking home run off Mariano Rivera in the ninth inning to lift Kansas City to a 3-2 win over the New York Yankees.• Nick Swisher, Cubs, homered from both sides of the plate and Chicago completed a dominant four-game sweep, beating Minnesota 7-5 for its seventh straight victory.• Cliff Lee, Indians, allowed two runs, six hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings to become the AL's first 10-game winner in Cleveland's 8-2 win over Detroit.• van Longoria, Rays, had a pair of solo homers and an RBI double, in Tampa Bay's 13-4 win at Anaheim.HITTING No. 600Ken Griffey Jr. hit his 600th home run, becoming the sixth player in history to reach that milestone. He homered off Mark Hendrickson in the first inning of the Reds' 9-4 win over Florida. Griffey joined Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Willie Mays and Sammy Sosa in the exclusive club. Griffey, one of baseball's most prolific sluggers before injuries began to take their toll, started the season with 593 home runs. It took 216 at-bats to reach the milestone.ROAD WARRIORJose Guillen homered in the ninth inning to lift the Royals to a 3-2 win over the Yankees. He went 9-for-16 in the four-game series in New York with four homers and 10 RBIs, and also scored six runs to help the Royals gain a split.STRUGGLING STARTERDetroit's Dontrelle Willis (0-1) gave up eight earned runs — matching a career high — three hits and five walks in 1 1-3 innings of the Tigers 8-2 loss to Cleveland. He was making his second start since going on the disabled list with a hyperextended right knee.AILINGBrewers second baseman Rickie Weeks was placed on the 15-day disabled list because of a sprained left knee. Weeks was put on the DL retroactive to June 7 and will stay in Milwaukee to receive treatment. He was injured Friday at Colorado, when Jeff Baker slid into him on a play at second base. ... Mets outfielder Ryan Church was to go on the disabled list Tuesday, still slowed by the effects of a concussion nearly three weeks ago. Church's most recent examination with a neurologist didn't show dizziness or any major symptoms, the Mets said. But he doesn't feel 100 percent, and the team decided to hold him out longer.SEE YAArizona Diamondbacks manager Bob Melvin was ejected after the umpires reversed their call and took a home run away from Mark Reynolds against Pittsburgh in a 5-3 loss. Reynolds hit a long drive to right field in the second inning that appeared ready to hit the top of the 21-foot high wall. A fan wearing a glove leaned several feet over the outfield railing and caught the ball. The umpires initially ruled it a home run, but after Pirates manager John Russell went out to argue, the umpires huddled briefly and reversed their call. That brought an angry Melvin out of Arizona's dugout, and he was ejected by home plate umpire Jeff Kellogg, the crew chief.STATSSan Francisco beat Washington 3-2 and has won six of eight overall, and its seven-game road winning streak is its longest since 2003. ... The Royals also improved to 5-29 at Yankee Stadium since the start of the 2000 season with a 3-2 win. ... Toronto has lost seven of nine and is 2-6 in June after going 20-10 in May.BACK TO BACK TO BACKEvan Longoria, Willy Aybar and Dioner Navarro hit consecutive homers in the second inning off Joe Saunders in the Rays' 13-4 win over the Angels.SPEAKING"I don't think I touched any of the bases. I sort of floated around." — Ken Griffey Jr. on rounding the bases after hitting his 600th home run in the Cincinnati Reds' 9-4 win over Florida.
