Another big day for Yankees' bats allows Ivan Nova to coast in finale of 6-4 road trip

CHICAGO - For one day, Ivan Nova shoved the questions about the Yankees' rotation to the back burner.

Another big performance by the offense didn't hurt, either.

Behind an 11-hit attack, featuring homers by Jacoby Ellsbury and Mark Teixeira and four RBIs by Stephen Drew, the Yankees hammered the White Sox, 12-3, Sunday afternoon in front of 38,840 at U.S. Cellular Field.

The victory allowed the AL East-leading Yankees (59-45) to complete a three-city, 10-game trip 6-4. They scored 12 runs or more in three of the games.

"If you could get a win today it would be a pretty good road trip," Joe Girardi said before the game.
