McDowell tops Twins for 1,700th strikeout milestone
Cleveland pitcher Sam McDowell fans eight as he reaches 1,703 career strikeouts in a 5-1 win over Minnesota. He escapes eighth-inning jams, adds two hits, and says his focus on strikeouts hinders his pitching. The Senators rally to beat the Brewers 6-5 after O'Donoghue's error on a sacrifice play. Reggie Smith leads Boston past Oakland 4-3 with a two-way day including a homer and a triple.

Giants coach cites glue in baseballs as factor in longer hits
Giants pitching coach Larry Jansen claims new baseballs have a rubberized glue between the leather and inner wrap, making throws travel farther. He notes older balls lack the glue and says Feeney, NL president, has denied any ball change. Jansen says he examined discarded balls linking the glue to the season's power.
