Jeter, Wang lift Yanks to win over Cubs
By Mark Feinsand / MLB.com


NEW YORK -- Chien-Ming Wang added another impressive outing to his rookie
season, but it was Derek Jeter who stole the show on Saturday.

Jeter hit two home runs, including his first career grand slam, leading the
Yankees to an 8-1 win over the Cubs at Yankee Stadium. The win was the fifth
in a row for New York, lifting the Yanks three games over .500.

Wang (4-2) tossed eight innings of one-run ball, allowing just five hits and
one walk while striking out five.

Alex Rodriguez got the Yanks out to an early lead, singling in Gary Sheffield
in the first inning. New York plated a second run in the fourth on an RBI
double by Jorge Posada, then added another in the fifth on Sheffield's RBI
single, giving Wang a 3-0 lead.

After being held scoreless through five, the Cubs finally got to Wang in the
sixth, as Jason Dubois drilled a solo homer to left, his sixth. The homer
didn't faze Wang, who retired the next three batters to hold the lead at two
runs.

New York extended it in the bottom of the inning, loading the bases against
Glendon Rusch (5-3) and Rich Hill with one out. That brought Jeter to the
plate with the bases loaded, giving him yet another crack at his first grand
slam.

But unlike the previous 135 at-bats, Jeter delivered on this one, belting a
2-1 pitch from Joe Borowski over the wall in left-center to boost the lead to
7-1.

Before the at-bat, Jeter was 45-for-135 with the bases juiced in his career,
an impressive .333 average. He had driven in 114 RBIs in those at-bats, but
none of those 45 hits had left the ballpark.

Jeter added a solo shot in the eighth against Cliff Bartosh, giving Jeter
eight career multi-homer games in his career.
