New York Yankees starter Ivan Nova was backed by two bombs from Mark Teixieria and Alex Rodriguez as the Bronx Bombers will be looking to go three-piece sweep on Thursday. A Brett Gardner RBI singled in the bottom half of the 1st of O's starter Kevin Gausman started the Yanks in the at frame followed by that two-run Tater by "Tex for a 3-0 Yankees lead.

The O's bounced back in the 3rd on a Ryan Flaherty two-run bomb making it 3-2 Yanks as both starter have been touched up by souvenirs.  It was A-Rod's solo blast in the bottom half of the 5th that proved to be the game-winner as the O's get a solo blast from "Crush" Davis in the 9th falling short 4-3.

Nova grabs the "W" moving to 2-3 while Gausman falls to 1-2.  Then Yanks more importantly moves to 52-41 in the East as the O's fall back under the .500 mark at 46-47. N.Y. now has a five game lead in the division.
