NEW YORK: A.J. Burnett took a steady first step as he aims to bounce back from a wobbly season and Mark Teixeira hit his second three-run homer in two games to send the New York Yankees to a 10-6 victory over the Detroit Tigers Saturday. Russell Martin also smacked a three-run shot, Alex Rodriguez hit No. 614 and Derek Jeter began his march toward 3,000 hits with his first two of the season. Rodriguez drove in Jeter with a first-inning double off Brad Penny (0-1), an early bust in his Detroit debut, and New York opened a 6-0 cushion after two. Mariano Rivera retired Miguel Cabrera on a grounder with two on for his second save. Victor Martinez hit his first home run for the Tigers, a two-run shot off Luis Ayala in the eighth. Austin Jackson had a solo drive off Burnett in the third. White Sox 8, Indians 3: At Cleveland, Edwin Jackson extended his mastery of Cleveland, and Gordon Beckham and Carlos Quentin had two RBIs apiece for Chicago. Jackson, who was 8-0 in his last nine starts against Cleveland, allowed two earned runs and five hits in six innings. He had one shaky frame, and that wasn't all his fault as two errors on one play by third baseman Brent Morel helped the Indians score two in the second. Chicago jumped out to 5-0 after two innings against Carlos Carrasco (0-1), who recovered and hung around. Gordon Beckham and Carlos Quentin had two RBIs apiece, and Travis Hafner homered for Cleveland in front of a crowd of 9,853 – the smallest in Progressive Field since the ballpark opened in 1994. Royals 5, Angels 4: At Kansas City, Missouri, Chris Getz had three hits, including an RBI single for the go-ahead run in the eighth inning, as Kansas City rallied past Los Angeles. Blue Jays 6, Twins 1: At Toronto, Kyle Drabek pitched seven innings of one-hit ball to earn his first major league win, and Jose Molina and Jayson Nix hit solo home runs to help Toronto beat Minnesota. Orioles 3, Rays 1: At St. Petersburg, Florida, Chris Tillman held Tampa Bay hitless for six innings and Nick Markakis made a leaping catch at the wall in the ninth to preserve the win for Baltimore. Mariners 5, Athletics 2: At Oakland, California, Ichiro Suzuki had two infield hits to become Seattle's career leader, including a bouncer in the ninth that drove in the go-ahead run. Giants blank Dodgers Matt Cain scattered five hits over six innings, and Aubrey Huff and Freddy Sanchez drove in three runs each as the San Francisco Giants defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-0 Saturday for their first win of the season. Miguel Tejada added two RBIs for the defending World Series champions, who had committed five errors in dropping a pair of one-run games to the rival Dodgers. But they backed Cain with ample offense and clean defense to avoid equaling their worst start since moving to San Francisco in 1958. Cain (1-0) struck out three and walked none, picking up where he left off last season as one of the Giants' most consistent starters. Phillies 9, Astros 4: At Philadelphia, Cliff Lee struck out 11 batters over seven impressive innings in his first game back with the Phillies. Padres 11, Cardinals 3: At St. Louis, Clayton Richard (1-0) had two RBIs and pitched six solid innings in San Diego's win over St. Louis. Nationals 6, Braves 3: At Washington, Rick Ankiel drove in three runs with a homer and squeeze bunt, and Jayson Werth and Wilson Ramos each had three hits as Washington beat Atlanta. Cubs 5, Pirates 3: At Chicago, pinch-hitter Blake DeWitt delivered a two-out, two-run double that capped a five-run eighth inning for Chicago to top Pittsburgh. Reds 4, Brewers 2: At Cincinnati, Scott Rolen hit a two-run homer in the first inning, eliminating the need for another dramatic Cincinnati comeback as the Reds beat Milwaukee behind seven strong innings from left-hander Travis Wood. Mets 6, Marlins 4, 10 innings: At Miami, David Wright's third hit of the game brought Jose Reyes home with the go-ahead run in the 10th, Willie Harris added a two-run single later in the inning and New York beat Florida. Rockies 3, Diamondbacks 1: At Denver, Jorge De La Rosa scattered three harmless singles and drove in a run before leaving in the sixth inning with a blister on his left middle finger as Colorado beat Arizona.
