The Yankees were unable to sweep the Blue Jays on Sunday as the Yankees were defeated 10-7.

Phil Hughes started for the Yankees and he struggled. Hughes allowed 7 runs on 9 hits in 4 innings of work. He struck out 4 and walked 1. He exited with 80 pitches thrown, in which 52 of them were for strikes.

The Yankees were down 7-0 at one point, but battled back and made it close. Derek Jeter went 3-for-5 with 2 runs batted in. He hit his 9th home run on the season, which was a solo shot in the sixth inning.

Robinson Cano also drove in 2 runs as he hit a two-run shot to right field in the sixth inning.

The Yankees will begin a four game set with the Rangers on Monday.
