CLEVELAND, July 5 (UPI) -- Curtis Granderson smacked a pair of homers and CC Sabathia won his 12th game Tuesday in the New York Yankees' 9-2 win over Cleveland.

Granderson collected three hits, including solo shots in the second and fourth inning, and Derek Jeter had two hits, including a two-run double, leaving him four shy of 3,000 for his career.

Robinson Cano, Nick Swisher and Jorge Posada each provided two hits and an RBI for the AL East-leading Yankees, who banged out 17 hits while evening their three-game set with Cleveland at one win apiece.

Tribe starter Carlos Carrasco (8-5) was rocked for 10 hits over four innings, giving up six runs.

Michael Brantley and Lou Marson drove in the Indians' runs.
