Luke Scott homered twice, and the Baltimore Orioles also got home runs from Melvin Mora and Aubrey Huff in a 7-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night.

Scott hit a solo shot in the second inning off Armando Galarraga and a game-clinching, two-run drive off Bobby Seay in the eighth. It was his second multihomer game of the season and fourth of his career.

Huff had two hits and scored twice to help the Orioles win for only the second time in 10 games. Huff has five homers in his last 13 games and 19 for the season, four more than he hit all last year.

Ivan Rodriguez went 4-for-4 with a homer and two RBIs for the Tigers. Detroit went down in order only once but hit into three double plays and was 4-for-15 with runners in scoring position.

Down 4-3, the Orioles rallied in the sixth against Galarraga (7-4). After Huff led off with a single, Mora hit a high, curving drive that bounced off the top of the left-field foul pole. It was his 13th homer and second in two games.

Singles by Placido Polanco and Matt Joyce leading off the seventh chased Baltimore starter Jeremy Guthrie (6-7). Chad Bradford then got Magglio Ordonez to hit into a double play before Miguel Cabrera grounded out.

After Detroit stranded a runner at second in the eighth against Jim Johnson, George Sherrill got three outs for his 29th save.

Guthrie won his third straight decision despite giving up four runs and 12 hits.

Galarraga, who allowed eight hits and five runs in 6 2-3 innings, is winless in five starts since June 18. Continued...
