    The game was already out of hand when A.J. Burnett glumly gave his manager the ball -- and the Minnesota Twins were still batting in the second inning.

    Burnett can't have many more starts like these if he's going to stay in the New York Yankees' rotation.

    Jason Kubel had three hits and two RBIs and Danny Valencia homered to lead the Twins past the New York Yankees 9-4 on Saturday, leaving Burnett at a loss to explain why he followed his first August win in three years with another rough turn.
