Bourjos’ error costs Angels chance to sweep Yanks (AP)
Peter Bourjos is generally considered the Los Angeles Angels' best fielder, and he only lost the fly ball in the sun for a moment. A team in a difficult playoff chase usually can't afford such mistakes -- particularly when facing the New York Yankees.

Teixeira homers, has 4 RBIs in Yankees’ win (AP)
The matchup between first-place teams fizzled with the Yankees' first batted ball. Nyjer Morgan got twisted up in center field and fell trying to catch Curtis Granderson's routine fly that ended up a run-scoring triple, and New York gave Zack Greinke and the sloppy Milwaukee Brewers a rude welcome back to the Bronx in a 12-2 drubbing Tuesday night.
