Minneapolis, July 28: Mark Buehrle set a major league record Tuesday with 45 consecutive batters retired before his streak was halted by a walk.

The Chicago White Sox star pitcher, who had a perfect game in his last previous start, retired the first 17 batters Tuesday against the Minnesota Twins before Alexi Casilla took a low 3-2 fastball for a walk with two outs in the sixth inning.

Denard Span followed with a single to center and Joe Mauer hit a tying ground-rule double to left field before Buehrle retired Justin Morneau on a grounder to end the inning.

Fellow rookie pitcher Jeff Niemann (9-4) allowed two runs on eight hits in eight innings for Tampa Bay, which has won four of its last five games.
