Yankees 6, Rangers 2
Robinson Tejeda allowed six runs on six hits in Wednesday's start. (Julie Jacobson/AP)
By T.R. Sullivan / MLB.com
Robinson Tejeda allowed four runs to the Yankees in the bottom of the first and lasted only 3 2/3 innings, his shortest start since last August. Michael Young left the game early with right hamstring tightness and is day-to-day. Brad Wilkerson hit a solo homer, his fourth of the year, in Texas' two-run third inning, and reliever C.J. Wilson pitched 3 1/3 shutout innings.
