Robinson Cano hit a sacrifice fly that scored Alex Rodriguez, and Jose Molina followed that up with a double to allow Hideki Matsui to score the winning run.
Chien Ming-Wang threw 111 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing seven hits and five earned runs. Jarrod Washburn won the duel, allowing just four hits and two runs in six innings of work, but the Yankees won the war and earned a series sweep.
