Joe Nathan pitched a perfect ninth for his second save, punctuating a wild night at the Metrodome that started with 7 1/2 innings of more bad baseball by the home team. The Twins have been behind in all 12 games, rallying to win five, while keeping manager Ron Gardenhire plenty busy. He's written out 12 different lineups and made almost a month's worth of trips to the mound this week with his pitching staff struggling to get in a groove.

Matt Guerrier (1-0) won in relief after having a hand in a five-run, two-out rally by the Angels in the seventh that gave them an 8-3 lead. The Twins were beat up by the Toronto Blue Jays earlier in the week, and after Thursday's lopsided loss Gardenhire urged his players to stay positive and stay together.

"To come back and get that win after being down like that, that's exactly what we talked about last night," Gardenhire said. "There's no quit. These guys are going to play. It's a nine-inning ballgame, and they played a full nine."

Derek Jeter broke an eighth-inning tie with the Yankees' fifth solo home run, and New York beat Cleveland for its first win at the new Yankee Stadium

Johnny Damon, Mark Teixeira, Melky Cabrera and Robinson Cano also connected as New York avoided dropping the first two games at its new home. Cano become the first player to reach the new stadium's second deck.

Jeter led off the eighth against Jensen Lewis (1-1) with his third homer of the season.

A crowd of 45,101, about 7,000 short of the listed capacity, saw Brian Bruney (2-0) win in relief of Joba Chamberlain, who threw just 46 of 93 pitches for strikes and gave up five runs, six hits and five walks in 4 2-3 slow-moving innings.

Mariano Rivera pitched the ninth to convert his third save in three chances.

In Toronto, Matt Holliday hit a go-ahead RBI double in the seventh inning, Bobby Crosby drove in three runs and Oakland beat Toronto.

Andrew Bailey (2-0) struck out four in two scoreless innings to earn the win. Michael Wuertz and Santiago Casilla each got three outs before Brad Ziegler worked the ninth for his third save.

Oakland scored four times in the fourth to tie it at 5 and went ahead for good in the seventh. Orlando Cabrera led off with a walk and scored on Holliday's one-out double to center off Brandon League (1-1).

In St. Petersburg, Fla., Ben Zobrist hit a pinch-hit grand slam and Carlos Pena homered for the fifth time in six days to help Tampa Bay past Chicago.
