Mark Teixeira belted a two-run homer in his return to the lineup Monday. Teixeira's blast capped off a nine-run second inning for the Yankees and was one of four longballs the Bombers had on the night. The first baseman also drew a walk. Teixeira hadn't played since aggravating his left calf strain on September 8, but the Yanks obviously hope that the issue is behind him.
