Carlos Beltran's three-run homer gives Yankees 4-3 victory over Blue Jays

TORONTO - There are far too many games left to call Friday night's a season-saver.

It only felt that way to a great many Yankees fans -- and maybe a few Yankees, too.

Pinch hitter Carlos Beltran's go-ahead three-run homer with one out in the eighth inning gave the Yankees a 4-3 victory over the Blue Jays in front of a stunned sellout crowd of 46,689 at Rogers Centre.

The Yankees (63-51) moved back into first place in the AL East, a half-game ahead of the Blue Jays (64-53), whose winning streak ended at 11 games.
