Hicks haunts old club as Yanks top Twins

FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Aaron Hicks had an RBI and an outfield assist against his former team, while Minor League outfielder Cesar Puello hit a go-ahead homer in the eighth inning to lift the Yankees to a 6-4 win over the Twins on Sunday at Hammond Stadium.

Hicks, who was traded for catcher John Ryan Murphy during the offseason after playing with the Twins for parts of three seasons, went 0-for-1 with a walk and a sacrifice fly. He also threw out Eddie Rosario at third base as he tried to tag up from second to end the fourth inning.
