Griffey hit a solo shot in the fourth inning off Jeff Zimmerman that broke a 2-2 tie. Dmitri Young added a two-run single and Sean Casey an RBI single for the Reds.

While Griffey was showcasing his offensive talents in Cincinnati's potent lineup, the Reds pitchers, considered to be the weak link on the club, had a solid day.

No. 1 starter Pete Harnisch allowed two hits in three scoreless innings, and winner Gabe White pitched two scoreless innings. NL Rookie of the Year Scott Williamson pitched a perfect ninth for the save.

Denny Neagle, who will start the season behind Harnisch in the rotation, allowed solo homers to Lee Stevens and Tom Evans in his two innings.

Astros 6, Yankees 2
TAMPA, Fla. -- Roger Clemens was roughed up in his first spring outing, while Jose Lima looked strong Sunday as the Houston Astros beat the New York Yankees 6-2.

The World Series champion Yankees played their regular lineup and slipped to 0-4 in exhibitions. They've been outscored 34-15 and have not held a lead in any game.

The Astros, who left Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio and Moises Alou back in camp, are 3-0.

Clemens, the winning pitcher when New York finished off its Series sweep against Atlanta last October, allowed five runs and six hits in 2 2/3 innings.

Bill Spiers hit a two-run double and Tony Eusebio and Roger Cedeno had RBI singles off Clemens in the second inning. Daryle Ward homered in the third, and Clemens left after Eusebio doubled.

"I don't think whether I throw shutout innings or give up runs it makes any difference," Clemens said. "I worked on typical spring training stuff."

Lima, 21-10 last season, pitched two hitless innings and struck out four. The Astros ace hit Chuck Knoblauch in the arm with his first pitch and just missed Derek Jeter with his next one.

"That's not what I wanted," Lima said. "I said to myself, 'Jose, what is going on?' And I apologized to Knoblauch."

Lima then struck out Jeter, Paul O'Neill and Bernie Williams in order, and fanned Ricky Ledee the next inning.

"It was my first time facing the Yankees. It was a nice crowd and that got me going," he said.

Tim Raines doubled and scored in the Yankees seventh and Ryan Thompson homered in the eighth.

Cardinals 2, Expos 1
JUPITER, Fla. -- Neither Chad Hutchinson nor St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa were making too big of a deal of the rookie's impressive three-inning stint in Sunday's 2-1 victory over the Montreal Expos.

Hutchinson, the team's second-round pick in the 1998 amateur draft, allowed only a broken-bat single by Orlando Cabrera in the third. He struck out three and walked two, and catcher Eli Marrero helped by throwing out both runners attempting to steal.

La Russa said Hutchinson, 23, a former quarterback at Stanford, has a chance to make the team in long relief. The rotation is deep with offseason acquisitions Pat Hentgen, Darryl Kile and Andy Benes joining 18-game winner Kent Bottenfield.

New Cardinals closer Dave Veres, who had 31 saves for the Rockies last year, made his debut in the fourth inning. He pretended not to notice.

"You go out there thinking it's the ninth with a one-run lead," Veres said. "That's what I told myself, it's not the fourth it's the ninth. I should have said it in the fifth, too."

Jose Vidro hit Veres' first pitch for a line-drive single and Rondell White lined out sharply to left before Veres got Vladimir Guerrero to ground into a double play. The Expos got their only run in the fifth when Brad Fullmer and Michael Barrett singled and Charlie O'Brien hit a sacrifice fly.

The Cardinals got the go-ahead run on a sacrifice fly by Larry Sutton, who replaced Mark McGwire at first base after three innings, in the sixth.

Orioles 7, Marlins 5
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Charles Johnson hit a three-run homer and Ryan Minor had a solo shot as the Baltimore Orioles overcame a shaky effort by Mike Mussina to beat t Florida Marlins 7-5 Sunday.

Mussina, making his first start of the spring, allowed four earned runs and six hits in three innings and left with the Orioles trailing 5-1. Mike Lowell hit a three-run homer and Dave Berg had two hits and scored twice against the right-hander.

But the Marlins managed only five hits the rest of the way against five relievers. Tim Worrell won despite allowing four hits in two innings and Mike Trombley pitched a perfect ninth for the save.

Worrell and Trombley were both signed as free agents during the offseason to improve a bullpen that struggled through much of 1999.

The Orioles closed to 5-4 in the fourth against Jason Grilli. Harold Baines doubled, Will Clark walked and Johnson, a former Marlin, homered over the left-field wall.

In the fifth, Albert Belle doubled in a run off former-Oriole Ricky Bones and scored on a single by Baines to put Baltimore up 6-5. Minor homered in the seventh off Bronswell Patrick.

Twins 11, Red Sox 6
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Matt Lawton and Cristian Guzman led another strong offensive showing for the Minnesota Twins in Sunday's 11-6 rout of the Boston Red Sox at Hammond Stadium.

Lawton went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and an RBI double, and Guzman stroked two triples as Minnesota collected 14 hits. All but two of the Twins' starting nine players got base hits.

Through five exhibition games, the Twins are batting .324 (59-182), with 12 doubles, three triples, six homers and 34 RBI.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, Red Sox pitcher Tomokazu Ohka gave up five runs on six consecutive hits after striking out the first batter he faced. Ohka was pulled in favor of pitcher Gary Roth after giving up a two-run single to Twins leftfielder Torii Hunter with one out that made it an 8-2 ballgame.

First baseman David Ortiz, the ninth batter of the inning, greeted Roth with a two-run homer over the right field wall before Roth got Denny Hocking to fly out to center and end the inning.

In two innings, Minnesota starting pitcher Joe Mays allowed one run on a solo homer by Boston's Trot Nixon in the second while striking out two. Nixon's blast came on a 3-0 pitch with two outs, but Mays came right back to strike out shortstop Manny Alexander swinging.

Nixon had the best day at the plate of any Red Sox hitter, going 3-for-3 with a run-scoring triple and a run-scoring single to go along with his home run.

Pirates 5, Phillies 3
CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Jimmy Anderson, in a battle for the final spot in the Pirates' starting rotation, pitched three hitless innings in his first spring start to lead Pittsburgh over the Philadelphia Phillies 5-3 Sunday.

Pete Rose Jr., a non-roster player in Phillies camp trying to impress, had an RBI single in the seventh following Rob Ducey's leadoff triple.

Aramis Ramirez drove in three of Pittsburgh's five runs with two doubles.

Anderson, a 24-year-old rookie left-hander, retired nine of the 10 batters, hitting Ducey with a pitch with two outs in the first.

Right-hander Jason Schmidt, the Pirates' scheduled starter, was scratched because of back discomfort.

Robert Person allowed four runs and four hits in 2 2/3 innings.

Pittsburgh took a 2-0 lead in the first on back-to-back two-out doubles by John Vander Wal and Ramirez. Ramirez hit a two-run, two-out double in the third.

After Pittsburgh scored a run off Scott Aldred in the ninth, Andy Dominique and Gene Schall hit RBI singles in the bottom half. With the tying run on and two outs, rookie left-hander Clint Johnston struck out Carlos Duncan.

Reds (split squad) 2, Devil Rays (split squad) 1
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Greg Vaughn didn't show much against his former teammates Sunday.

Vaughn, whose 45 home runs kept Cincinnati in contention for a playoff spot until the final day of the regular season, was 0-for-2 as the Tampa Bay Devil Rays lost to the Cincinnati Reds 2-1 in a split-squad game.

"Being a slugger, timing is going to take a little bit longer," said Vaughn, who has a single in four at-bats this spring. "I don't worry about being right, right now. I want to be right later in spring training."

Ken Griffey Jr., acquired in a trade with the Seattle Mariners on Feb. 10, was in Sarasota on Sunday for Cincinnati's other game against the Texas Rangers.

Jim Mecir was the loser, allowing a two-out single to Alex Ochoa and a run-scoring double to D.T. Cromer in the ninth inning.

Cincinnati scored its other run in the first on a leadoff double by Kimera Bartee off Wilson Alvarez and an RBI grounder by Dante Bichette.

Quinton McCracken tied it with a home run off starter Rob Bell in the third inning.

Devil Rays (split squad) 7, Braves 5
KISSIMMEE, Fla. -- Josh Hamilton doubled home the go-ahead run in the eighth inning as a Tampa Bay Devil Rays' split squad beat the Atlanta Braves 7-5 Sunday.

Hamilton's double scored Miguel Cairo, hit by loser Winston Abreu leading off the inning. Cairo stole second before Hamilton's hit.

Braves starter John Smoltz, trying to work on his knuckleball, allowed three runs and five hits in 1 2/3 innings.

Tampa Bay took a 2-0 lead in the first on Steve Cox's sacrifice fly and Ozzie Timmons' RBI single, then got another run in the third on Dave Martinez's sacrifice fly.

The Devil Rays added three runs in the fifth on RBI doubles by Cox and Timmons and a run-scoring single by Bobby Smith.

Javy Lopez drove in Atlanta's first run in the second with a sacrifice fly and Brian Jordan hit a solo homer in the fourth. Jordan also had a double.

The Braves closed to 6-5 in the fifth when Ozzie Guillen scored on Chris Reitsma's wild pitch, West Helms' RBI single and George Lombard's run-scoring grounder. The Braves tied it in the seventh with an unearned run.

Winner Marc Valdes pitched two innings and gave up an unearned run. He struck out three.

Diamondbacks 6, White Sox 5
TUCSON, Ariz. -- Greg Colbrunn continued his torrid batting with two more hits, including a home run, as the Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Chicago White Sox 6-5 Sunday.

Arizona built a 6-0 lead through four innings and held on despite two Chicago home runs. Byung-Hyun Kim retired the White Sox in order in the ninth for his first save.

Paul Konerko hit a long two-run homer for Chicago in the sixth inning, and Brian Simmons homered leading off the seventh to cut the score to 6-5.

Colbrunn, 7-for-11 so far, homered to right-center field in the third inning and singled in the fourth. The homer was his second of the spring.

Bernard Gilkey had three RBI for Arizona and Matt Williams went 2-for-3.

Brian Anderson pitched three shutout innings in relief and added an RBI single for the Diamondbacks.

Mets 10, Dodgers 7
VERO BEACH, Fla. -- Starters Al Leiter and Kevin Brown were sharp in their first outings of the spring, but several of their relievers were hit hard Sunday as the New York Mets beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-7.

Todd Zeile singled and hit a three-run homer against his former team, and Charlie Hayes added a two-run shot for the Mets, who scored all their runs in the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh innings.

The Dodgers have allowed 11 homers and been outscored 23-12 in their three games, but manager Davey Johnson said he likes what he's seen.

"I'm not scared in the least," he said with a smile. "I realize we haven't won, but that's the least of my worries. By and large, I'm seeing some good signs."

Adrian Beltre hit a two-run homer and Eric Karros had a two-run double for the Dodgers, who scored all their runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth.

Leiter and Brown each pitched three scoreless innings. Leiter earned the victory when Zeile homered with two outs and two on off loser Eric Gagne in the fourth.

Mets left-hander Bill Pulsipher, who collapsed in his bathroom Feb. 23 and was treated in Port St. Lucie, where the Mets train, pitched for the first time in an exhibition game and allowed three hits and two runs in one inning.

Indians 9, Blue Jays 6
TORONTO -- Russell Branyan went 3-for-3 with four RBI, hitting a three-run homer as the Cleveland Indians beat the Toronto Blue Jays 9-6 Sunday.

The third baseman probably won't make the team because Travis Fryman is signed through 2002, and David Justice, Richie Sexson and Jim Thome share DH duties.

"He showed me something today and then some," Cleveland general manager John Hart said. "When you hit an opposite-field homer off Billy Koch that's something."

Koch, whose fastball has been clocked as high as 101 mph, walked his first two batters in the fourth inning before Branyan connected for a homer that landed in the second deck.

The Indians probably will have Branyan start the year at Triple-A Buffalo, but if Fryman is injured, they'll need him ready to play.

Carlos Delgado's RBI single gave Toronto a 1-0 lead in the first. Richie Sexson's sacrifice fly tied it in the second. Jacob Brumfield's RBI double and Alberto Castillo's RBI groundout in the bottom half gave Toronto a 3-1 lead.

After Branyan's homer gave Cleveland a 4-3 lead and Omar Vizquel hit an RBI double in the fifth. Homer Bush's RBI groundout in the bottom half cut it to 5-4.

The Indians scored two more runs in the sixth on Mark Whiten's RBI groundout and on shortstop Alex Gonzalez's throwing error. Tony Batista had an RBI double in the sixth, but Branyan's RBI infield single in the seventh made it 8-5. Kevin Lidle hit a solo homer in the eighth.

Tigers 9, Royals 5
LAKELAND, Fla. -- Juan Gonzalez, in his first game against major leaguers, had a single in three at-bats Sunday during the Detroit Tigers' 9-5 win over the Kansas City Royals.

On almost any other day, Gonzalez would have been a footnote at most.

Damion Easley hit a two-run homer, Gregg Zaun had a solo shot and Luis Polonia hit a triple and single and drove in two runs to pace in the Tigers' 12-hit attack.

Johnny Damon had two hits in four at-bats and Carlos Beltran drove in two runs for the Royals.

Winner Dave Borkowski gave up three runs and six hits in 2 2/3 innings. Loser Jeff Suppan gave up four runs and four hits in two innings with two walks.

Mariners 10, Padres 10
PEORIA, Ariz. -- Seattle Mariners outfielder John Mabry dislocated his right pinkie Sunday in a 10-10 tie against the San Diego Padres.

Mabry, hurt while unsuccessfully trying to make a diving catch on a Bret Boone drive, left the game and was taken for X-rays. The results were not immediately known.

Padres left-hander Sterling Hitchcock, scratched Saturday because of pain and tightness in his throwing arm, allowed two runs and three hits in two innings, striking out two of nine batters. He gave up RBI doubles in the third to Alex Rodriguez and Brian Lesher, who replaced Mabry.

Aaron Sele, in his first appearance since Seattle signed him as a free agent, gave up three runs and four hits in two innings.

Padres starter Brian Boehringer, coming off season-ending shoulder surgery last August, also went two innings and allowed one unearned run and two hits.

Rodriguez finished 2-for-2 with a walk and two runs scored.

Cubs 8, Brewers 7
PHOENIX -- Henry Rodriguez hit a two-run homer and Jeff Huson added a two-run double as the Chicago Cubs defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 8-7 on a rainy and chilly Sunday, improving to 3-0 this spring.

Rodriguez, who hit 26 homers last year, connected in the first off Jaime Navarro, who allowed three hits in three innings.

Greg Mix, who followed, gave up three runs and four hits in the fourth as Chicago built a 5-2 lead. Cubs starter Kyle Farnsworth gave up two runs and five hits in three innings.

Matt Luke had three hits, including two doubles, and Geoff Jenkins, Damon Hollins and Lou Collier had two hits apiece for Milwaukee, which stranded 10 runners.

Milwaukee scored three runs in the ninth against Kerry Lacy before Danny Young came in for the save.
