Rodriguez drove in three runs without hitting his 600th homer and the New York Yankees used a seven-run seventh inning to beat the Cleveland Indians 11-4 Thursday night. Dustin Moseley (1-0) won his first start, allowing a run and four hits over six innings as New York took three of four in a series that saw A-Rod's…

The 25-year-old will oppose the New York Yankees and Alex Rodriguez, who is hoping to hit his 600th career homer. Manager Manny Acta doesn't think the right-hander will be fazed by facing the Yankees, who have the best record in the majors at 63-35.

Tomlin took a shutout into the eighth inning against A-Rod and the rest of New York's potent lineup to win his major league debut with the Cleveland Indians, 4-1 on Tuesday night. "That was an outstanding effort by the kid," Indians manager Manny Acta said.

Curtis Granderson hit a two-run shot, though Alex Rodriguez failed to connect for his 600th homer in New York's 3-2 win over the Cleveland Indians on Monday night. Nick Swisher also homered for New York, now 16-5 in July.

So did Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon. Brignac staked Wade Davis to a 3-1 lead with one swing, then made a diving stop to help the right-hander remain unbeaten in July as the Rays beat the Cleveland Indians 4-2 Sunday.
