At Toronto, Hank Blalock atoned for an earlier error with a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning to lift Texas to the win. Michael Young hit a one-out double in the 10th and stole third. Mark Teixeira walked and Sammy Sosa was given a free pass from Brian Tallet (0-1) before Blalock flied out to the warning track in center field to drive in Young.

At New York, Kei Igawa came from being banished to the bullpen to saving struggling New York when it desperately needed him. Igawa (2-1) shut out Boston for six-plus innings after starter Jeff Karstens broke his leg off the first pitch and New York snapped a seven-game losing streak. Jorge Posada hit a two-run homer off knuckleballer Tim Wakefield.
