Yankees 3, Blue Jays 2: CC Sabathia wasn't as dominant as he was during his shutout in Baltimore on Friday, but he was good enough. The Yankees ace struck out five, walked four and allowed two runs in eight innings to help the Yankees (16-16) take the rubber game of this three-game set against the leaders of the American League East. Hideki Matsui hit a go-ahead solo homer in the eighth inning. Derek Jeter had an RBI single and Nick Swisher walked in a run. The Yankees start a 10-game homestand Friday with a game against the Twins.

Mets 7, Giants 4: Isn't it amazing how David Wright goes from clutch to unclutch in the blink of an eye? He knocked in the go-ahead run as the Mets took the first game of a 10-game road trip. He also had four stolen bases, part of a franchise-record seven by the Mets. Livan Hernandez faces Tim Lincecum on Friday. Edge: Giants.
