Summary Yankees beat Blue Jays 6-1 on Tuesday.
New Yorks C.C. Sabathia held Toronto scoreless into the seventh inning in his sparkling return from injury as the Yankees beat the Blue Jays 6-1 on Tuesday, going a season-best 22 games over .500. Sidelined since June 24 because of a groin strain, Sabathia (10-3) silenced a Toronto lineup minus All-Star slugger Jose Bautista, who injured a wrist on Monday.New York got an early three-run homer from Andruw Jones. Sabathias successful return overshadowed an encouraging outing by Toronto starter Brett Cecil (2-2), who entered with a 6.75 ERA in five major league starts this year but held the Yankees in check for six innings and retired his final eight batters.
