(Sports Network) - Derek Jeter continues his quest to become the all-time hits leader for the New York Yankees this evening, when the team continue its four- game series against the Tampa Bay Rays at Yankee Stadium. Jeter went 0-for-8 in Monday's doubleheader sweep of the Rays, leaving him three hits short of Lou Gehrig's franchise mark of 2,721. "What can you do?" Jeter said. "It's one of those days. Just come back tomorrow. We won two games today, that's the most important thing." New York, b

ore Orioles. The Red Sox, in spite of three losses in four games to the White Sox over the weekend, begin the series with a 2 1/2-game bulge over Texas in the race for the American League's lone wild card position. Boston, though, trails the New York Yankees by nine games in the AL East. Buchholz, a 25-year-old Texan, is 3-0 in his last four starts, including a 6-3 win at Tampa Bay on Sept. 3 in which he allowed six hits and three runs in six innings. Previously, he'd topped Toronto, 3-2, with 8

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Aaron Hill finished 2-for-3 with three RBI and scored three times as Toronto used a methodical eight-run fifth-inning to down the New York Yankees, 14-8, in the finale of a four-game set from Rogers Centre. Juan Encarnacion and Randy Ruiz each knocked in a pair of runs for the Blue Jays, who managed a split in the series.

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Mark Teixeira and Robinson Cano homered to help Andy Pettitte win his fourth straight start, as the New York Yankees notched a 6-4 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays in the third of a four-game set at Rogers Centre. Cano finished 3-for-4 with a pair of runs scored and Melky Cabrera drove in two runs for the Yankees, who bounced back with a strong offensive effort after being one-hit by Roy Halladay on Friday in a 6-0 loss.

Contreras' final start with Chicago was a lousy 3 1/3-inning stint in which he was battered for eight runs (6 earned) and nine hits in a 10-0 road loss to the New York Yankees on August 29. His previous outing wasn't any better, as the right-hander was tagged for seven runs -- only one of which was earned due to a costly fielding error he committed -- before exiting after just 2 2/3 frames during an August 24 setb
Halladay tosses one-hitter; Jays snap Yankees' win streak at seven Fri Sep  4 22:06:49 2009 EST
Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Roy Halladay rebounded from a rough stretch of recent starts by tossing a one-hit shutout, leading the Toronto Blue Jays to a 6-0 win over the New York Yankees. Halladay (14-8) had struggled in his last three starts, going 0-3 with a 7.94 earned run average. He didn't pitch more than six innings in any of those starts. But the right-hander was dominant Friday against baseball's highest-scoring offense, limiting the Yankees to the one hit and three walks in his six

At 72-61, the Rays are third in the AL's East Division, 13 1/2 games behind the front-running New York Yankees and, more importantly at this point, six games in back of the Boston Red Sox for the league's lone wild card berth.
