Blue Jays 3, Orioles 0

Dana Eveland pitched brilliantly into the eighth inning in his Toronto debut, and the Blue Jays got two RBIs from No. 9 hitter Jose Molina in a victory over Baltimore Saturday night.

Eveland (1-0) allowed five hits in 7 1-3 innings, walking two and striking out two. The left-hander permitted only two runners to get past second base and retired 13 of the final 15 batters he faced.

Eveland was 2-4 with a 7.16 ERA last year with Oakland, which sent him to Toronto in February for cash.

Scott Downs got an inning-ending, double-play grounder in the eighth, and Jason Frasor got three outs for his third save.

Eveland outpitched Baltimore starter David Hernandez (0-1), who gave up two runs and six hits in six innings. The Orioles have lost Hernandez's last 10 starts since Aug. 11, 2009.

Mariners 4, Rangers 3

Franklin Gutierrez drove in the go-ahead run to cap a three-run ninth inning against Frank Francisco (0-2), who blew his second save opportunity in three days, allowing three runs and three hits while retiring only one batter.

Mark Lowe (1-1) walked two in a scoreless eighth, and David Aardsma worked the ninth for his second save.

Twins 2, White Sox 1

Jason Kubel hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning and Scott Baker pitched seven sharp innings, leading Minnesota over the White Sox.

Jesse Crain got two outs in the eighth and stranded Mark Teahen at second, and Jon Rauch pitched a scoreless ninth inning for his fourth save.

Baker (1-1) rebounded after struggling through only 4 2-3 innings on opening day. On Saturday, he allowed one run on five hits. He struck out three and walked one.

In his first start of the season, Freddy Garcia (0-1) made one mistake, to Kubel. He allowed just two runs on three hits. He struck out four and walked five.

Tigers 4, Indians 2

Jeremy Bonderman gave up one hit in five innings and Magglio Ordonez had a two-run homer for the Tigers.

Bonderman (1-0) retired the first 11 he faced, then allowed a run on a wild pitch, single and two walks. The right-hander started for the first time at home in nearly two years since having surgery to break up a blood clot in his throwing shoulder.

Ryan Perry pitched the final 1 1-3 innings for his first career save.

Mitch Talbot (0-1) allowed four runs, six hits and five walks over five innings in his debut with the Indians and fourth game in the majors.
