SCOREBOARDTuesday, Sept. 1Boston at Tampa Bay (7:08 p.m. EDT). The Red Sox open up a three-game series against the Rays trying to distance themselves further in the AL wild-card race.STARS• Andy Pettitte, Yankees, retired his first 20 batters before a seventh-inning error spoiled his perfect game and a hit later that inning wrecked the no-hit bid, and New York went on to beat Baltimore 5-1.• Adam Lind, Blue Jays, had two homers, including a grand slam, and a career-high eight RBIs as Toronto beat Texas 18-10 after nearly blowing an 11-0 lead.• Carlos Pena, Rays, hit his AL-best 38th homer and drove in four runs to help Tampa Bay beat Detroit 11-7 for a split of their four-game series.• Vladimir Guerrero, Angels, hit two home runs, one a monster shot into the upper deck, and Los Angeles routed Seattle 10-0.• Rusty Ryal, Diamondbacks, homered to lead off the 10th inning and Arizona beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-3 for their fifth consecutive victory.SHIPPEDThe Los Angeles Dodgers made a big push to lock up the NL West, acquiring slugging first baseman Jim Thome from the Chicago White Sox and right-hander Jon Garland from the Arizona Diamondbacks. The deals were announced by Los Angeles in the top of the eighth inning of Monday night's game against Arizona. Both trades were completed before the midnight EDT deadline required for postseason eligibility.SWINGSToronto built an 11-0 lead over Texas in the first five innings before the Rangers scored 10 unanswered runs over the next three frames. The Blue Jays sealed the victory with seven runs in the ninth inning, including a solo homer and three-run double by Adam Lind. He also hit a grand slam earlier and drove in a career-best eight runs.
