Alex Rodriguez's three-run home run against Toronto's A.J. Burnett marked both his 2,000th career hit and his 450th homer. The 416-foot shot, which came on a 1-1 count, pulled the Yankees back within one run of the Blue Jays after an early 4-0 deficit.

Rodriguez is the fourth member of the current Yankees team with at least 2,000 hits in his career, joining Derek Jeter, Bernie Williams and Gary Sheffield. Jeter collected his milestone hit on May 26.
