Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira has been hitting well the last few days, and has credited the improved strength in his troublesome right wrist.

He is 9-for-16 with three doubles and seven RBIs in his last four games.

Teixeira, who had a cortisone shot earlier this season, says that he has regained all the strength in his wrist.
