The All-Star second baseman hit a pair of two-run homers to back a solid effort by David Phelps, and New York beat the Toronto Blue Jays for the ninth straight time at Yankee Stadium, 7-2 Saturday. "Im glad thats not a moving part," Girardi said. "Hes not someone you can replace."

Cano also hit one off Morrow (1-3) with two away in the fifth, a shot that gave him his second multihomer game of the year. He has 12 such games for his career.

With runners on first and second in the third, Phelps got Melky Cabrera to ground into a double play. After again walking Bautista, he struck out Encarnacion with a high fastball for the third out. The Blue Jays cut the lead to 3-1 in the fourth. After Adam Lind had the first of his two doubles, Colby Rasmus hit a sharp liner that Curtis Granderson, playing right field for the first time in his big league career, got spun around on and Lind scored. But Phelps struck out Maicer Izturis to limit the damage. "I was making pitches when I needed to," Phelps said. "I was all over the place today." Phelps was greeted on the field just in front of the dugout with a handshake from Girardi after a 1-2-3 seventh. Phelps yielded six hits and walked three. David Robertson gave up Encarnacions 12th homer in a rainy eighth inning.

With two outs, Gardner singled to centre field and third base coach Rob Thomson signalled Nix home with a feverish windmill of his right arm. Nix slid in before the throw arrived. Cano then sent the next pitch on the shortest possible journey out of the ballpark, just clearing the fence down the right-field line. Cano hit his 12th of the year in the fifth with a no-doubter to right-centre, driving in Austin Romine, who singled. "That was a good game," Cano said.
