Yankees 3, Angels 2
ANAHEIM, Calif. — CC Sabathia came within one out of his second complete game in three starts, Alex Rodriguez hit a go-ahead two-run homer and Robinson Cano also went deep for the Yankees. Rodriguez snapped a tie at 1 in the sixth with his 623rd career homer, driving Ervin Santana's 1-and-1 pitch into the rock pile in left-center after Curtis Granderson's leadoff walk. The two RBIs increased Rodriguez's total to 1,864, tying Mel Ott for ninth place all time. Derek Jeter tied Sam Rice for 28th place with his 2,987th hit.
