Cleveland, OH (Sports Network) - Alex Rodriguez didn't hit his 600th career home run, but drove in three runs while both Derek Jeter and Curtis Granderson added two RBI as the New York Yankees used a late burst of offense to down Cleveland, 11-4, in the finale of a four-game set.
Robinson Cano homered and Francisco Cervelli also drove in a run for the Yankees, who took three of four in the set.
Dustin Moseley (1-0) earned his first win of the season by limiting Cleveland to four hits and one run with four strikeouts over six full frames.
Austin Kearns and Matt LaPorta each drove in a run for the Indians, who have lost five of six.
Frank Herrmann (0-1) was charged in defeat with a run in 1 1/3 relief innings. Starter Mitch Talbot departed after two-plus innings due to a mid-back strain after allowing a run while walking four.
