HOUSTON -- Omar Daal allowed two hits over 6 2-3 innings to beat Houston for the first time in seven decisions as Los Angeles beat the Astros 4-0 on Saturday.

Daal entered the game 0-6 in 22 appearances against the Astros, but he retired 18 of the first 19 batters.

Daal (11-6) finished with three strikeouts and two walks. Shuey, Paul Quantrill and Jesse Orosco finished the three-hitter.

Kirk Saarloos (6-4) allowed four runs and six hits in six innings.

Giants 5, Diamondbacks 0

PHOENIX -- Kirk Rueter and three relievers combined on a five-hitter Saturday as the San Francisco Giants won their seventh in a row, 5-0 over Curt Schilling and the slumping Arizona Diamondbacks.

Schilling and teammate Randy Johnson lost consecutive starts for the first time this season. The last time the two did it was Aug. 23-25 2000, when Schilling lost to Milwaukee and, after a day off, Johnson lost to the New York Mets.

Schilling (21-5), who lost to an NL West team for the first time this season, allowed three runs on four hits and struck out nine in seven innings. His four walks, one intentional, were his most in 88 starts.

Phillies 1, Mets 0

NEW YORK -- New York completed the worst home month in NL history, losing its 13th straight game at Shea Stadium to Randy Wolf and Philadelphia.

Wolf pitched a four-hitter and Jimmy Rollins hit an RBI single in the eighth inning as the Mets tied a team record for consecutive home losses set in 1979.

At 0-13, the Mets became the first NL team ever to go winless at home in a month while playing at least 10 games.

The 1996 Detroit Tigers (0-16 in September) and the 1969 expansion Seattle Pilots (0-13 in August) had been the only clubs to do it, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Braves 5, Expos 3

MONTREAL -- Andruw Jones and Mark DeRosa homered and Chris Hammond pitched two scoreless innings for his seventh relief win as Atlanta beat Montreal.

Jones led off the seventh with his 27th homer -- his first since Aug. 17 -- on an 0-2 pitch from Javier Vazquez (8-12) to break a 3-3 tie.

DeRosa, who hit an RBI single in the second, hit his second homer of the season in the fourth to put Atlanta up 3-2, but Andres Galarraga hit his eighth homer on Jason Marquis' first pitch of the sixth to tie it.

John Smoltz saved his second straight game, pitching the ninth for his major league-leading 48th save.

Marlins 3, Pirates 2

MIAMI -- Kevin Millar hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the eighth inning and Florida beat Pittsburgh.

Scott Sauerbeck (3-2) began the eighth by walking Luis Castillo, who took second on Jason Kendall's passed ball with none out. Castillo advanced to third when Andy Fox flied out to right.

Brian Boehringer replaced Sauerbeck and promptly allowed Millar's sacrifice fly to right.

Brewers 11, Reds 2

CINCINNATI -- Jorge Fabregas hit two of Milwaukee's five home runs off Chris Reitsma as the Brewers beat Cincinnati.

Alex Sanchez, Ryan Thompson and Matt Stairs also homered off Reitsma (5-10). The last Cincinnati pitcher to allow five home runs in a game was Bret Tomko on June 15, 1999, against the New York Mets.

Reitsma allowed six runs and 10 hits, walked two and struck out two in 4 1-3 innings.

Thompson's homer was the most impressive of all, traveling an estimated 447 feet to the stairwell on the second level of the new Great American Ball Park being built beyond the left-field wall of Cinergy Field.

Ben Sheets (9-15) allowed eight hits, struck out six and walked none in 7 1-3 innings. Sheets has won four of his past five starts.

American League

Indians 8, Red Sox 7

CLEVELAND -- Johnny Damon committed his first error in 250 games, allowing Bill Selby to score from first on Omar Vizquel's double, giving Cleveland a win over Boston.

Selby hit a pinch single with out one in the ninth and Milton Bradley popped up a bunt to first baseman Brian Daubach before Vizquel's hit off Bobby Howry (3-4).

Damon, the center fielder, went to his right to cut off the ball and it bounced off his glove. He threw to cutoff man Nomar Garciaparra, who made a strong throw to the plate, but Jason Varitek couldn't come up with the one-hop throw as Selby slid in headfirst.

Blue Jays 5, Yankees 1

TORONTO -- Justin Miller (6-4) combined with two relievers on a three-hitter as Toronto beat New York.

Miller, facing the Yankees for the first time, only allowed Derek Jeter's single to left in the first, Raul Mondesi's bloop double to center in the fifth and John Vander Wal's infield single in the fifth.

The three hits were New York's fewest since San Francisco's Jason Schmidt and Robb Nen combined on a two-hitter June 8.

Orlando Hernandez (7-4) took the loss.

White Sox 9, Tigers 4

DETROIT -- Joe Crede hit his fourth home run in as many games, capping a five-run first inning for Chicago.

It was Chicago's sixth victory in eight games and Detroit's third loss in a row. Crede has 13 RBIs in his last four games.

Gary Glover (7-6) allowed three runs and four hits in five-plus innings.

Steve Sparks (8-14) allowed nine runs on seven hits in 5 2-3 innings. He walked two and struck out four.

Devil Rays 7, Rangers 5

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Randy Winn scored the go-ahead run on a wild pitch in the eighth inning as Tampa Bay beat Texas.

With the game tied at 5, Danny Kolb got the first two outs in the eighth. But Winn singled, went to third on Aubrey Huff's single and scored when Kolb's inside pitch nearly hit Hall and got past catcher Ivan Rodriguez.

Hall's single scored Huff to make it 7-5.
