NEW YORK -- After starter Chris Capuano was booed off the mound in the first inning, the New York Yankees makeshift lineup turned the mood in the Bronx a bit more festive. Mark Teixeira made up for a botched foul pop in the Rays four-run first inning with a go-ahead triple in the fifth, Brian McCann homered and drove in three runs, and the Yankees used their biggest comeback of the season to beat Tampa Bay 8-5 Wednesday night. "There was no panic," Teixeira said. "We just slowly got the job done as the night went on." The Yankees, who moved within 4 1/2 games of a playoff spot with 19 remaining, did not get off to a good start. Teixeira overran leadoff batter Ben Zobrists foul ball behind first base for no play. Zobrist then singled for his 1,000th career hit. Five of the next six Rays reached before Capuano was lifted in the shortest start of his career. By the end of the 30-minute top of the first, New York trailed 4-0. McCann got the rally started with a homer in the bottom half to end Jake Odorizzis scoreless streak at 14 1-3 innings. Filling in for injured Martin Prado, Chris Young hit his first homer with the Yankees -- he was cut by the Mets on Aug. 9 -- to tie it at 4 in the fourth. Young added an RBI double in the eighth and finished a triple shy of the cycle. Five relievers combined for 8 2-3 gritty innings, allowing seven hits, including Evan Longorias 20th homer in the ninth. Preston Claiborne (3-0) pitched two innings for the win. "We just know if we hold the game the way it is our guys could come back," said Dellin Betances, who pitched 1 1-3 scoreless innings. "It was a great win." With a full moon peeking through the clouds in centre field, the Yankees closed the gap to 4-3 in the third with the help of catcher Ryan Hanigans errant throw on ball four. Young, who singled, was running on a full-count pitch to Jacoby Ellsbury. Hanigans throw on ball four went into centre field, allowing Young to advance to third on the error. Ellsbury stole second and, one out later, McCann lined a two-run single to left field. "I thought it was a close pitch so I thought there was a chance were going to get the call, so thats why I just came up throwing," Hanigan said. McCann was hit by a pitch from Odorizzi (10-12) to start the fifth and scored when Wil Myers had trouble with Teixeiras liner into the right-field corner. Teixeira raced into third standing up with his first triple since July 6, 2012, at Boston. "It shows the character of the guys in that room, that theyre going to keep fighting," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. That was the end of the night for Odorizzi, charged with six runs and five hits in 4 1-3 innings. TRAINERS ROOM Rays: RHP Nathan Karns (0-0) will take the rotation spot of Drew Smyly, who has been shut down for the season after throwing 153 innings combined with Tampa Bay and Detroit. Yankees: DH-OF Carlos Beltran was scratched from the lineup about 90 minutes before the game because of right elbow soreness. Afterward, he said he will give it a few days before deciding if he will have to end his season early to have surgery to remove the bone spur that has been troubling him since mid-May. "Its been frustrating," Beltran said. ... Prado (hamstring) and OF Brett Gardner (abdominal strain) were also out of the lineup again. UP NEXT The AL East rivals play the finale of a three-game series Thursday with a matchup of stingy starters: the Yankees Michael Pineda (3-4) vs. the Rays Alex Cobb (9-7). Pineda has not allowed more than two earned runs in any of his nine career starts for New York. Cobb has yielded two runs or fewer in 11 straight starts, a franchise record. 1,000 HITS Zobrists accomplishment was especially meaningful to his manager. "When he first came here I would not have anticipated 1,000 hits," Joe Maddon said. "He went back to the minor leagues and came back reinvented." WATCH ME When asked how a catcher should position himself for a play at home plate on a hit to left field, Girardi, a former All-Star catcher, jumped up from his seat in the press conference room to demonstrate. He used the corner of the riser as the "plate" and proceeded to show the media how he was taught to give a lane to home plate and "then take it away" by sidestepping into the runners path. Benson Mayowa Jersey . Hicham Khalouas late goal improved Almerias chances of avoiding relegation in a match dominated by contentious calls, including three penalties. One day after Barcelonas 4-3 win at Real Madrid featured three penalties, referees again dominated a wide-open game that saw Almeria ultimately move out of the relegation zone and one point ahead of Getafe which took its place.

Billy Slater and Brett Morris both crossed twice and Cooper Cronk added the other try as the Kangaroos produced a near-flawless performance at Old Trafford to win the trophy for the 10th time in 14 editions. New Zealand forward Sonny Bill Williams was bidding to become the first player to win World Cups in both rugby codes but his subdued performance was summed up when his pass was intercepted in the lead-up to Australias final try, a length-of-the-field score finished off by Morris. The Australians finished without having conceded a try since their opening-day win over England five weeks ago. In their five matches since then, they shipped only four points in five matches, scoring 244. For Australias 30-year-olds Greg Inglis, Cameron Smith and Johnathan Thurston, who kicked all seven of his goals, it completes the resumes of three of the modern-day rugby league greats. And it goes a long way to making up for the 2008 final, when New Zealand stunned its fierce rival in Brisbane to claim the sports biggest prize for the first time. This was the heaviest victory in a final, eclipsing Australias 40-12 victory over the Kiwis in the same stadium in 2000. Australia hadnt been beaten in three years heading into the match but, crucially, New Zealand had defeated its great rival in three of the last four major finals they had met -- in that 2008 World Cup and in the Four Nations in 05 and 10. It quickly became apparent, though, that there would not be another upset here in a match played in front of 74,468 -- a record crowd for an international. Australia was sharper around the play-the-ball, made big yardage through the forwards and made the most of New Zealand winger Roger Tuisava-Shecks injury withdrawal in only the seventh minute to make a raaft of incisive attacks down its left channel.dddddddddddd Two of their tries came down that flank. A halftime scoreline of 16-2 didnt flatter the Kangaroos -- and their opponents walked off hands on hips, a punishing first 40 adding to the weariness after that epic semifinal victory over England last weekend. Thurston and Shaun Johnson kicked goals in the opening 16 minutes before Australias attack started making serious inroads and Thurstons perfectly judged kick was collected by the leaping Slater -- soaring way above Kieran Foran -- for the opening try in the 19th. Slater was passed fit only on Thursday after making a quicker-than-expected recovery from a knee injury and his try double -- and Australias victory -- will be particularly sweet for the fullback, whose error gifted Benji Marshall a crucial try in the 2008 final. Isaac Luke somehow held up Cronk over the line to deny the standoff a try in the 25th, but Cronk had the last laugh five minutes later when he collected Darius Boyds kick forward following another raid down the left to force himself over the line. Lukes slip, just as Cronk gathered the ball, proved decisive. Thurston converted again -- in the process surpassing countryman Mick Cronin to become the record international point-scorer -- and his penalty in the 36th gave the Australians a 14-point lead at the break. New Zealand really needed to score next to make a game of it but it took less than a minute after the break for Slater to virtually clinch the trophy. Again the Kiwis were exposed on their right, as Thurston set free Darius Boyd, who passed inside for Slater to race over. Morris was next to cross after finishing a great move by diving to ground Jarryd Haynes kick forward before crashing into the advertising hoardings behind the short in-goal area. The same duo combined for the crowning try in the 72nd, Hayne intercepting Williams hopeful miss-pass and sprinting 60 metres before offloading to Morris, who did the rest.
