Rodriguez finally hits 600th HR in Yankees win Wed Aug  4 16:52:26 2010 EST
Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - Alex Rodriguez at last hit his 600th career home run, as the New York Yankees avoided getting swept by taking a 5-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. Rodriguez, who hit No. 599 on July 22 against Kansas City, went 51 plate appearances before hitting the milestone homer in the first inning off Shaun Marcum. The hit also snapped an 0-for-17 streak he brought into Wednesday's contest. Rodriguez became the youngest player to reach 600 home runs. Hall of Famer Babe Rut
A-Rod hits No. 600 Wed Aug  4 13:57:42 2010 EST
Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez became the seventh player in Major League Baseball history to reach the 600- home run plateau, achieving the milestone in the first inning of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. With Derek Jeter on base and two away, Shaun Marcum threw a 2-0 fastball away. Rodriguez belted the pitch to dead center field and the crowd's cheers intensified on the home run's long way out. Rodriguez at last reached the mark after
Yanks aim to salvage set with Jays; A-Rod still going for No. 600 Wed Aug  4 11:09:38 2010 EST
(Sports Network) - The wait continues. Alex Rodriguez's quest to become the youngest player to 600 home runs continues this afternoon when the New York Yankees try to avoid a three-game sweep at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium. Rodriguez, who was 0-for-3 in Tuesday's loss, has gone 46 at-bats and 51 plate appearances since hitting No. 599 back on July 22 in the Bronx. Once Rodriguez finally reaches the milestone, he should easily become the youngest player to do so. Babe Ru

nd you just have to tip your cap to him." Ian Kennedy will attempt to follow up Saunders' gem and continue his own recent success when the offseason pickup takes the mound tonight for his first career encounter with the Nationals. The former New York Yankees prospect is 3-1 over his last four starts, although he needed some help from the Arizona offense to come up with his latest win. Kennedy gave up just three hits in a six-inning stint against the New York Mets last Friday, but two were homers
Bell helps give new skipper Showalter first win with O's Tue Aug  3 21:51:15 2010 EST
Orioles' new skipper on Monday. Juan Samuel had been guiding the team on an interim basis since Dave Trembley was fired back on June 4. The 54-year-old Showalter brings plenty of managerial experience to a struggling O's team. He managed the New York Yankees from 1992-1995, then the Arizona Diamondbacks from 1998-2000. He also managed the Texas Rangers from 2003-06 and was named AL Manager of the Year in 1994, and again 10 years later. Josh Bell capped a four-run sixth inning with a two-run doub
Romero goes the distance as Jays down Yankees Tue Aug  3 21:42:07 2010 EST
Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - Ricky Romero threw his third complete game of the season and was backed by four Toronto home runs, as the Blue Jays beat the New York Yankees, 8-2, in the middle contest of a three-game series. Romero (9-7) gave up two runs on only two hits and one walk, and retired the final 15 batters he faced. Jose Bautista hit his major-league leading 33rd homer of the season for the Blue Jays, who also won in the opener of this set. Travis Snider, Vernon Wells and Aaron Hill al
Wells, Blue Jays hang on to down Yanks Mon Aug  2 22:53:08 2010 EST
Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - Vernon Wells doubled, homered and drove in two, as the Toronto Blue Jays held on for an 8-6 win over the New York Yankees in the opener of a three-game series. The Blue Jays scored seven runs in the fifth inning off Yankees starter A.J. Burnett (9-9) before New York chipped away at its deficit. The Yankees had chances to potentially draw even, but the Toronto bullpen held on, making a winner of Brandon Morrow (8-6). The Blue Jays starter allowed five runs in 5 1/3 i
GM Cashman would be lost without the cash Mon Aug  2 11:04:10 2010 EST
New York, NY (Sports Network) - New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman is often referred to as "Cash" as an abbreviation for his last name. And how appropriate that is, because without the ability to spend the Steinbrenners' huge boatload of cash, it's very unlikely he could build a championship team. Prior to the trading deadline, the Yankees added Lance Berkman, Austin Kearns, and Kerry Wood to a team that already had the best record in baseball. With the deals, the defending champs a

Westbrook lost his final two starts with the Tribe but pitched well in his most recent one, which took place against the New York Yankees on July 26. He held the defending world champions to one run over the game's first seven innings, but surrendered a two-run homer in the eighth and wound up on the short end of a 3-2 decision.

Carmona lost for the first time in four starts on Wednesday against the New York Yankees, as he was hammered for seven runs and 10 hits in just 2 2/3 innings. Carmona lost to the Red Sox earlier in the year and is 1-3 in six games (four starts) against them with a 5.16 ERA. Cleveland has split its four games with the Red Sox thi
