Alex Rodriguez may have been greeted by boos but the Yankees third baseman showed no signs of being affected as he homered and drew a pair of walks in New York’s 6-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in their opening spring training game.

 

A-Rod hit a two-run blast in the fourth inning, part of a three-run frame for the Yankees that gave them a 4-1 lead which they never relinquished.

 

Brett Garner led off the game with a home run for New York but the Blue Jays tied the game in the third on a sacrifice fly from Alex Rios. After jumping up 4-1 the Yankees tacked on a pair of runs in the fifth inning on RBIs from Nick Swisher and Todd Linden.

 

Brett Tomko started for the Yankees and pitched two scoreless innings, allowing just one hit
