Alfonso Soriano gets game-winner as New York Yankees beat Tampa Bay
NEW YORK,[url=http://www.christianalouboutin.co.uk]christian louboutin Sale[/url], July 28 () -- Alfonso Soriano bashed a two-run homer and drove in the game-winning run in the ninth inning Sunday, boosting the New York Yankees over Tampa Bay 6-5.Soriano's two-run blast in the third inning -- his first home run since returning to New York -- put the Yankees ahead 5-4. The Rays battled back for a tying run in the fifth on a solo shot by Wil Myers -- his second homer of the game.The score remained tied until the ninth when Brett Gardner drew a leadoff walk from Jake McGee (2-3) and went to second on a wild pitch.Derek Jeter was then intentionally walked and Robinson Cano fanned, but Soriano followed by singling to center, driving in Gardner with the game-winner as New York avoided a three-game sweep.Jeter smacked a solo homer on the first pitch he saw in his return to the lineup after missing much of July with a strained quadricep. It was just his second game since undergoing ankle surgery last fall.Ichiro Suzuki went 4-for-4 with an RBI for New York.Mariano Rivera (2-2) earned the decision after tossing a scoreless top of the ninth.Myers finished 2-for-4 with four RBI for Tampa Bay, which fell into second place in the American League East, 1/2 game behind Boston. |
