Russell Martin connected for a game-winning home run in the bottom of the ninth, his second long ball of the game, as the Yankees walked off the Mets in dramatic fashion for a 5-4 victory on Sunday at Yankee Stadium.

Andy Pettitte's throwing hand was wrapped in a bandage following Sunday's game, but X-rays taken during the game were negative.

The Marlins drafted Josh Beckett in 1999, and he won 41 games in five seasons, helping the club to the 2003 World Series title. Miami will oppose Beckett for the first time on Monday, when the Red Sox and Marlins open a three-game Interleague set.

The Nationals sit atop the NL East, but will face a difficult task on Monday, when they begin a three-game Interleague series against the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre. Washington's Edwin Jackson opposes Toronto's Brandon Morrow in the opener.

Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine was ejected Sunday for the second time in his Boston tenure. Valentine was tossed by home-plate umpire Al Porter for arguing a strike call in the bottom of the ninth.

The Rangers could have to put another pitcher on the disabled list. Alexi Ogando had to come out of Sunday's start against the Giants after three innings with a strained right groin.

Tampa Bay's 4-2 win over the Marlins on Sunday gave the Rays a three-game sweep, earning the team from St. Petersburg early bragging rights for the Florida rivalry, facilitated by Interleague Play.

A's manager Bob Melvin wasn't ruling out a Yoenis Cespedes appearance on Sunday before his club's series finale against the D-backs, but he also acknowledged it would be ideal to rest the outfielder through Monday's off-day.

A day after injured D-backs shortstop Stephen Drew batted 2-for-5 with a home run in a Triple-A game in Tucson, manager Kirk Gibson started to plan for the 29-year-old's return.

Matt Holliday missed his second straight game on Sunday with a lingering back injury. With an off day on Monday, Holliday would get three days to rest up for the final six days of the homestand against the White Sox and Royals.
