Duncan homers twice as Yankees embarrass Devil Rays

<h3>NY YANKEES 21, TAMPA BAY 4</h3>BRONX, New York (Ticker) -- At the plate it was quite aweekend for Shelley Duncan and the rest of the New York Yankees.

Duncan homered twice and knocked in four runs as the Yankeesembarrassed the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, 21-4, on Sunday.

Alex Rodriguez also hit his 498th career homer for the Yankees,who went deep six times in their best offensive performance inover two years.


The latest outburst by the Yankees featured a 10-run bottom ofthe fourth inning. Duncan hit a three-run homer to cap theuprising, then added a solo blast two frames later.

In all four games of this series, there was plenty of offensivefirepower. The Devil Rays scored 14 in the series opener onFriday but in less than 24 hours, the Yankees have scored 45runs, pounding out 53 hits.


In this one, the Yankees turned a 3-3 game into a blowout with a29-minute inning. In the fourth, they sent 14 men to the plateand collected eight hits.


One of those hits was Duncan's home run to left field offreliever Casey Fossum. It was the second home run in as manydays for Duncan, who narrowly missed a three-run shot in hismajor league debut Friday and capped a five-run sixth inning inthe first game Saturday's doubleheader with a solo blast in a7-3 win.


Before the 27-year-old crushed Fossum's 3-2 offering andreceived his second curtain call in as many days, the Yankeesbattered Tampa Bay starter James Shields.


Shields (8-6) endured the worst outing of his brief career as heallowed 10 runs and 10 hits. His day ended after HidekiMatsui's RBI single made it 8-3.


The Yankees opened a 3-1 lead on Matsui's two-run home run inthe third but Tampa Bay tied it on Josh Wilson's two-run singlein the fourth. In the bottom half, New York struck quickly andoften en route to its ninth win in 12 games.


The Yankees had their first 10-run inning since September 4 atKansas City and it started when Robinson Cano tripled to theright field corner. He scored when Andy Phillips singled andthat put the Yankees ahead for good.


Phillips' go-ahead single was only the start. The Yankees hadfive more RBI hits and also scored another run on catcher DionerNavarro's throwing error.


The Yankees hit six home runs in a game for the first time sinceJuly 21, 2005 at Texas. After Bobby Abreu hit a solo shot inthe fifth, they kept pounding away in the sixth as Duncan openedthe frame by crushing a 1-0 pitch from Shawn Camp into theright-center field bleachers.


After Duncan's third home run in his last five at-bats,Rodriguez moved within two of the 500 mark when his majorleague-leading 34th home run of the season landed on the nettingbeyond the left field wall.


Besides hitting his 17th home run and ninth in 17 games, Matsuialso had four singles. It was his first five-hit game duringthe regular season of his career.


The Yankees scored their 20th run of the contest with two outsin the eighth when Cano hit a two-run shot into the right-centerfield bleachers. That gave New York 20 runs for the first timesince June 21, 2005 against Tampa Bay.


Every starter had a hit and an RBI and the barrage was capped byMelky Cabrera's RBI base hit in the eighth.


All of the offense made a winner out of Andy Pettitte (6-6).Pettitte allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings andalso set a season high with eight strikeouts as he improved to13-1
