Teixeira went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and three RBI overall in Friday's 14-4 victory over the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran slugger has endured a forgettable season, but Friday was a highlight. Teixeira erased an early 1-0 lead with a mammoth 430-foot blast to right center in the first that plated Gary Sanchez, and brought him home again in the second with a run-scoring single. The production brought the veteran's average over the Mendoza Line for the first time since Aug. 12 and extended his modest hitting streak to three games.
