Teixeira has message for Angels fans: 2 HRs (AP)
The way Mark Teixeira looks at it, getting booed on the road is a badge of honor. And the brutal treatment he's received at Angel Stadium the past three seasons would serve as the ultimate compliment to him. Teixeira homered twice against his former team, Nick Swisher also went deep and the New York Yankees beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-3 on Sunday to win the three-game series.

Fan’s take: On opening day, New York Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson makes Austin Jackson trade look better (Associated Content)
Curtis Granderson arrived in New York late Wednesday, March 30, after playing in a minor league game earlier that day. Granderson was testing the oblique muscle he injured on March 22, which caused him to miss the end of spring training, and put his availability for opening day in doubt. Luckily for the Yankees, the outfielder was ready. Facing his former team, Granderson put on a show in New York. He made three amazing defensive plays, and broke a 3-3 tie with a solo home run in the seventh inning.
