The Mets got a pinch-hit grand slam from Nick Evans in the eighth inning and a game-winning solo shot by Rene Rivera in the ninth to beat the Orioles 9-8. But on a day when Miami Dolphins executive Bill Parcells and coach Tony Sparano visited camp, it was Santana who took center stage.

SIZEMORE HEATS UP (9:19 p.m. ET)
Grady Sizemore went 3-for-3 in his second game back after a groin injury and the Cleveland Indians beat the Chicago White Sox 9-3 on Monday.

Sizemore scored twice and drove in two runs. Victor Martinez also went 3-for-3 with two RBIs.

John Danks pitched two innings for the White Sox, allowing six runs, five earned, and eight hits. He struck out three and walked one.

Fausto Carmona allowed three runs and five hits in three innings for the Indians.

CHOO HURTING (8:45 p.m. ET)
Shin-Soo Choo will be examined by team doctors at the Cleveland Indians' spring training camp on Tuesday.

The outfielder complained of a sore left triceps last week while playing for South Korea in Japan during the World Baseball Classic. Choo had ligament transplant surgery in his left elbow in 2007, but a Korean spokesman said Thursday that its team doctors attributed the soreness to the climate change from training camp in Hawaii to the cooler Japan.

"This will give our people a chance at taking a look at Choo," Indians manager Eric Wedge said.

Choo did not play Monday when South Korea defeated defending champion Japan 1-0 in pool play. He is 1-for-7 with a walk and three runs in three tourney games.

The Indians and South Koreans had agreed before the tournament that Choo would sit out one game in each round. It also was stipulated that he could play the outfield only once in the first round. In the second round, he can appear in the outfield in two games and they must not be consecutive.

LESTER MUM ABOUT DEAL (8:43 p.m. ET)
Jon Lester had much more to say about his changeup than he did about his future.

The left-hander threw 57 pitches in his third spring training start, and a makeshift Boston Red Sox lineup outslugged the Pittsburgh Pirates 15-14 on Monday in a 10-inning game that lasted 4 hours, 10 minutes.

Lester's outing came one day after Yahoo.com reported that he had agreed to a $30 million, five-year contract extension with a $13 million club option for 2014.

The Yahoo! Sports report cited an unidentified source close to the team. Lester, however, said no deal had been completed.

SAUNDERS IMPROVES (7:55 p.m. ET)
Joe Saunders pitched three innings in the Los Angeles Angels' 5-4 loss to the Oakland Athletics.

Saunders allowed two runs, one earned, and four hits. He has been dealing with elbow tightness that has slowed his progress this spring, but said he felt a little better on Monday.

ZITO A WORK IN PROGRESS (7:49 p.m. ET)
Barry Zito, sporting a 5.19 ERA in 8 2/3 Cactus League innings, continues to work toward finding a comfort zone with the Giants.

Zito threw 67 pitches -- 42 of them strikes -- in four innings against Milwaukee on Monday. He's still working to get a feel for his changeup, but said his main objective at the moment is throwing the fastball for strike one.

"It really sets up everything," Zito said. "That's pretty much what I'm trying to do -- get ahead with that heater on both sides of the plate."

NELSON, DUFFY STEP IT UP (7:46 p.m. ET)
At the beginning of spring training, it looked as if Trot Nixon and Tony Gwynn Jr. were the leading candidates to win reserve outfield jobs in Milwaukee.

But that's changed over the past two weeks. First Gwynn went down with a shoulder impingement. And Nixon hasn't made much of a case for himself with only two hits in 20 at-bats.

Brad Nelson and Chris Duffy have both stepped in to make strong bids for jobs. Duffy, the former Pirate, is hitting .296 in the Cactus League, while Nelson has been on a tear in Arizona. He singled in his only plate appearance against San Francisco on Monday to raise his spring training average to .563 (9 for 16).

PETTITTE FEELS GOOD (7:18 p.m. ET)
Andy Pettitte felt so good that the Yankees let him pitch longer than his scheduled one-inning stint in his first spring training start.

Pettitte allowed one hit over 1 2/3 scoreless innings of the Yankees' 6-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday.

Russ Adams and Travis Snider hit solo homers for Toronto. Rookie left-hander Brad Mills, bidding for a rotation spot, gave up two runs and four hits in 3 2/3 innings.

SCHMIDT BACK ON MOUND (7:17 p.m. ET)
Jason Schmidt was finally back on the mound for the Dodgers. Andruw Jones did something he rarely did in his only season with Los Angeles.

Schmidt, the $47 million pitcher who has had two shoulder operations since his last start in June 2007, threw two innings in Los Angeles' 13-7 victory over the Texas Rangers on Monday.

Schmidt got through the first in 12 pitches. After a lengthy break while the Dodgers scored seven runs off Kevin Millwood, Schmidt walked two before Taylor Teagarden homered in the second.

Jones hit one of Texas' four homers. He had only three for Los Angeles last season.

Dodgers manager Joe Torre said Manny Ramirez will go through some baserunning drills in the next couple of days and is on schedule to make his spring debut Thursday.

YOUNG MOVE WORKING (7:15 p.m. ET)
Michael Young's transition from five-time All-Star and Gold Glove shortstop to third base is going well for the player and the Rangers.

"He's starting to get acclimated. He's beginning to find out that the balls get down there on you a little quicker," manager Ron Washington said Monday. "Catching the ball, moving into the hole, backhanding, coming in on slow rollers, he'll handle that."

Texas decided during the offseason to switch Young to third even though he had just won his first Gold Glove at shortstop. The move was made to make room for touted 20-year-old prospect Elvis Andrus to ascend from Double-A to the majors.

Young, the longest-tenured Rangers player, going into his ninth season, initially balked at the decision and asked for a trade. A few days after his request became public in mid-January, he rescinded it and started preparing to play a new position.

"It's going fine. The obvious stuff like ground balls isn't going to be a problem," Young said. "It's just kind of like letting your instincts take over, so I have a pretty good idea of where I want to play in certain situations."

Before a day off Monday, Young started nine of the first 11 spring training games and didn't have an error in his nine fielding chances.

YNOA MAKES DEBUT (7:13 p.m. ET)
Seventeen-year-old right-hander Michael Ynoa went through his first workout on U.S. soil since the Athletics gave him an eye-popping $4.25 million signing bonus in July. He set an optimistic timeline for reaching the majors.

"God willing, I believe two years, if I work very hard," Ynoa said Monday.

Last summer, the A's won a bidding war for Ynoa, who at the time was incorrectly referred to as "Inoa" in most reports. When they signed him, it was the largest bonus ever given to a non-Cuban international amateur player. It was the largest bonus the A's had paid to any amateur.

The 6-foot-7 Ynoa was referred to by the A's and other scouts as a "once-in-a-decade" talent. He was often compared to Mariners right-hander Felix Hernandez.

Ynoa throws a fastball in the mid-90s, along with a curveball and a changeup. He finished Monday's 25-pitch session with a few changeups.

KAZMIR FEELS 'INCREDIBLE' (4:54 p.m. ET)
Scott Kazmir felt so good in his first spring training game that he had to concentrate on taking it easy.

Kazmir pitched two innings in the Tampa Bay Rays' 4-3 loss to the Minnesota Twins on Monday, yielding one run and three hits.

"Everything felt incredible; that's seriously the best my arm has ever felt," he said. "At the same time, I felt like I wanted to take it easy this first start. I knew once I got out there and got a hitter out there in a real game, the adrenaline was going to be there so I didn't want to overdo it."

Kazmir said he went "about 85 percent," and it caught up with him in the second inning. The All-Star left-hander allowed three hits in his last inning of work, including David Winfree's RBI double.

MOSS GOOD TO GO (4:22 p.m. ET)
The Pittsburgh Pirates say outfielder Brandon Moss has only a bruise and mild sprain of his right thumb and should be ready for Opening Day.

Moss injured his thumb Saturday and was examined at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh on Monday. He will return to Bradenton and begin working to regain strength in his hand and reduce swelling.

The Pirates also optioned reliever Romulo Sanchez and assigned infielder Pedro Lopez, catcher Miguel Perez and left-hander Daniel Haigwood to minor league camp.

Sanchez, 24, had a 4.05 ERA in 10 appearances with the Pirates last season. He will go to Class AAA Indianapolis.

The camp roster is at 53, with 26 pitchers, five catchers, 13 infielders and nine outfielders.

A'S CHAVEZ SCRATCHED (1:53 p.m. ET)
Eric Chavez's surgically repaired right shoulder bothered him when he was hitting during Oakland's exhibition game Sunday, forcing the Athletics to push back his spring debut in the field.

Chavez was scheduled to play third base against the Angels on Monday but was scratched, and manager Bob Geren said there was no timetable for his return.

"He experienced some pain in his shoulder yesterday, so we're going to give him a few days off even from DH-ing," Geren said.

Chavez underwent surgery on his right shoulder in August. Although he said before spring training that he felt like he could do everything, the A's were cautious about putting him into a game at third. The club initially hoped he'd play last week, but that was pushed back to Monday.

RIVERA RIGHT ON TRACK (12:23 p.m. ET)
Yankees reliever Mariano Rivera threw 30 pitches off the mound Monday morning.

The Yankees say everything is on track. Rivera plans to throw batting practice on Wednesday and says he hopes to pitch in a game next week.

Rivera had surgery Oct. 7 on the AC joint in his right shoulder.

CROSBY TRADING PLACES (11:32 a.m. ET)
Bobby Crosby will be playing third base Monday for the first time, and this might help to put him in position to be traded.

Crosby was very unhappy when the Athletics signed Orlando Cabrera last week, and asked Oakland to try to trade him. But Crosby is owed $5.5 million for this year, and he has already passed through waivers without being claimed, so it's unlikely that the Athletics can move him without eating a whole lot of money.
