NEW YORK (AP) — Josh Donaldson and Jose Bautista each hit a long home run, and the Toronto Blue Jays earned their eighth straight victory by beating the New York Yankees 2-0 Sunday to complete a three-game sweep that tightened the AL East race...

The Yankees lost to the Red Sox last night by a score of 2-1. But Yankes rookie sensation Luis Severino didn't look overmatched in his major league debut. He allowed two runs, only one of which was earned. He surrendered only two hits while walking none and striking out seven...

The Yankees turned in a 4-3 seventh inning lead into a 13-3 rout of the rival Boston Red Sox on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium. The nine-run inning started with Jacoby Ellsbury reaching on an error, then continued with a walk to Chris Young. Alex Rodriguez singled in Ellsbury to make it 5-3...

In a move that hurts my Seattle Mariners-loving heart, the Yankees have acquired Dustin Ackley from the M's for Ramon Flores and Jose Ramirez. Ackley, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2009 draft, never panned out offensively in Seattle, as many haven't...

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Colby Lewis went six innings for his 11th victory and the Texas Rangers snapped a three-game losing streak with a 5-2 win over the AL East-leading New York Yankees on Wednesday night. Adrian Beltre had two hits and scored twice for the Rangers, who won for only the second time in their last 14 home games...

The Yankees walloped the Rangers last night by a score of 21-5.... More remarkable? The Yankees were down 5-0 after the first inning and came back to put up three unanswered touchdowns. And more remarkable than that? Adam Warren earned the save in a 16-run game...

Today, Alex Rodriguez turns 40 years old. First off, dang, that makes me feel old. I remember crying as a 12-year-old when Alex Rodriguez left the Mariners to go to the Texas Rangers. I remember Alex Rodriguez being the guy that made me realize sports was about money, and not the love the game...

The Yankees are linked to acquiring some of the bigger names at the trade deadline but this year, general manager Brian Cashman has drawn a line as to which prospects he won’t deal.

The Yankees got four runs in the first inning and that helped them dispose of the Orioles early on Thursday, winning 9-3. Chase Headley hit a bases loaded double in the first to make it 3-0 and then Didi Gregorius brought him in with a single to make it 4-0...

NEW YORK (AP) — Alex Rodriguez hit the 20th homer of his renaissance season, Mark Teixeira connected for an early two-run shot and the New York Yankees beat the Baltimore Orioles 4-3 Wednesday night. Ivan Nova (2-3) ended the first three-start losing streak of his career, and the AL East leaders won for the eighth time in 10 games...

Mark Teixeira, Chris Young, and Chase Headley each had multi-hit games as the Yankees topped the Orioles 3-2 on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium. After taking two of three from the Mariners over the weekend, the Yanks got on the board in the bottom of the first when Alex Rodriguez hit a sacrifice fly...

NEW YORK (AP) — Mark Teixeira homered with two outs in the eighth inning, and the New York Yankees rallied for a 2-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Sunday for a series win. On a steamy day with a gametime temperature of 92 degrees — a thermometer in the photographers' well down the first base line read over 100 — both Cy Young Award winning starters, CC Sabathia and Felix Hernandez, were don
