AL notables

Detroit catcher Ivan Rodriguez has not played since straining his calf Monday.

Paul Konerko joined Frank Thomas (1995-96) as the only White Sox to hit 40 homers in back-to-back seasons.

The Angels won their 18th game in September, matching the club record set en route to the 2002 World Series title.

Devil Rays shortstop Julio Lugo and outfielder Carl Crawford became the ninth set of teammates since 1900 and the fourth since 1925 to have at least 180 hits and 35 steals in one season. The last duo was Cleveland's Roberto Alomar and Omar Vizquel in 1999.

Tampa Bay's two 1-0 shutouts at Jacobs Field this season were the first by a visiting team at the ballpark.
