There was a slugfest last night in Arlington, the only problem (for Texas) was that only the Yankees got the memo. Robinson Cano and Mark Teixeira powered homeruns in the Yankees 9-2 win, while Hideki Matsui slammed a pair of dingers.

Ian Kinsler, the Rangers slugging second baseman, did manage to get into the action for Texas with a homerun that accounted for the only two runs that they would manage.

The win moves the Yankees only a half a game out of the division lead behind the Red Sox. If they manage to take the lead this weekend in their series with Cleveland, it would be their first time atop the AL East all season long.

If you’re in the Cleveland area, grab some Yankees tickets and be a part of America’s Pasttime.
