 NEW YORK (AP) - Alex Rodriguez hit a two-run homer and the New York Yankees got another big hit from Andy Phillips, beating the Toronto Blue Jays 6-4 on Monday night in a noticeably even-tempered game.
Hideki Matsui and Robinson Cano also connected off Josh Towers (4-6) for the resurgent Yankees, who have won nine of 12 overall and four of five since the All-Star break. Mariano Rivera earned his third save in three days.
Troy Glaus homered twice against Kei Igawa, and Alex Rios also went deep for Toronto. Glaus barely missed another home run when he opened the ninth with a rare triple high off the center-field fence.
