NEW YORK (AP) — Russell Martin led off the bottom of the ninth inning with his second homer of the game and the New York Yankees took advantage of some shoddy infield defense to beat the struggling Mets 5-4 Sunday for a three-game sweep.

The Mets could not hold an early 3-0 lead, but tied it 4-all in the top of the ninth on Ike Davis’ RBI double off Rafael Soriano.

In the seventh, Martin hit a two-run homer off the top of the right-field wall to pull the Yankees to 3-2 after third baseman David Wright’s throwing error extended the inning.

Mark Teixeira tied it at 3 with an RBI single in the eighth and Alex Rodriguez gave the Yankees the lead with a bloop single.

MIAMI (AP) — James Shields allowed one run in 6.1 innings to win for the first time in five starts and Tampa Bay capped a three-game sweep by beating Miami.

The Rays outscored their intrastate rivals 22-7 and have won seven in a row against the Marlins. Miami fell to 0-6 on its homestand and has been outscored 43-10.

Blue Jays 12, Braves 4

ATLANTA (AP) — Brett Lawrie and Colby Rasmus each homered and drove in three runs as Toronto rallied from an early four-run deficit to defeat Atlanta.

The Braves’ six-game winning streak ended even though they led 4-0 after three innings. Blue Jays left-hander Ricky Romero lasted only four innings.

Toronto took the lead with six runs in the fifth off 21- year-old Julio Teheran, who was called up for his first start of the season, and 37- year-old Livan Hernandez (1- 1).

BALTIMORE (AP) — Matt Wieters doubled home the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning and Baltimore beat Philadelphia to extend its run of successive extrainning victories to nine.

Steve Tolleson hit a threerun homer for the Orioles, who bounced back from a 4-1 deficit to keep Phillies starter Cliff Lee winless this season.

Cubs 8, Twins 2

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Ryan Dempster pitched eight shutout innings to lead Chicago past Minnesota.

After an 18-start winless streak dating to last Aug. 11, Dempster (2-3) won his second game this week, another gem for a Cubs team that had the worst record in the majors. He scattered four singles and struck out six, including Joe Mauer three times, to help Chicago win for the fifth time in 25 games.

Rangers 5, Giants 0

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Alexi Ogando pitched three perfect innings before leaving with a strained groin after a bunt single, combining with three relievers combined on a three-hitter and leading the Texas Rangers past San Francisco.
