NEW YORK -- A year ago, right fielder Carlos Beltran's elbow was in so much pain he was unable to extend it without difficulty.

Now, many times when Beltran extends his elbow for a swing, it turns into a big home run for the New York Yankees.

It did Thursday night when Beltran connected for a three-run home run off left-hander Chris Sale with one out in the bottom of the third inning and the Yankees held on for a 3-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox.
