Wang rebounds, A-Rod homers as Yanks win (AP)

 
Chien-Ming Wang pitched shutout ball into the fourth inning, Alex Rodriguez hit a two-run homer and the New York Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-1 Tuesday. Wang, the expected opening-day starter, rebounded from a dismal start against Cincinnati last Thursday when he gave up six runs and six hits in two-thirds of an inning. [link]
