DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Aaron Hicks led off the game with a home run and Alex Rodriguez hit an RBI single in the Yankees' 4-3 victory over the Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon at Florida Auto Exchange Stadium. New York pulled ahead in the ninth when Deibinson Romero scored from third on a pitch that got by the catcher.
Toronto left-hander J.A. Happ was charged with three runs on five hits while striking out two and not issuing a walk over six innings. It was a strong outing for Happ, who cruised into the sixth until the Yankees finally got to him with an extended rally.
