Hideki Matsui's homer in the eighth inning was the difference, as the New York Yankees edged the Toronto Blue Jays, 3-2, in the finale of a three-game set from the Rogers Centre.
Derek Jeter, in his first game back after missing the previous two, and Nick Swisher also ended with an RBI each for New York, which finished a six-game road trip at 4-2. Johnny Damon had a double to extend his extra-base hitting streak to 10 games. The streak ties a franchise record set by Don Mattingly in 1987 and matched by Paul O'Neill in 2001.
CC Sabathia (3-3) got the win after going eight innings and giving up just two runs on five hits. Mariano Rivera worked a 1-2-3 ninth to record his seventh save of the year.
