The Yankees got a big at-bat from center fielder Manny Margot. For the game, Margot went 1 for 4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the second, with the bases loaded, he stroked a grand slam home run. His 5th home run of the season gave New York a 6-2 lead.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Margot. "And not try to do too much."

The Yankees bumped their record to 66-57 with this latest triumph.
