Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - Justin Upton drove in a run to lead the Atlanta
Braves to a 2-0 win over the New York Yankees in spring training action on
Tuesday.
Jordan Schafer and Tyler Pastornicky each scored a run for the Braves, who got
3 2/3 innings of scoreless work from starter Paul Maholm.
Brett Gardner had two of the five hits for the Yankees, who saw starter David
Phelps give up a run on two hits over four innings of work.
Earlier on Tuesday, New York first baseman Mark Teixeira was ruled out of the
World Baseball Classic after suffering a strained right forearm during batting
practice before Team USA's exhibition game against the Chicago White Sox.
X-rays came back negative and he is expected to miss the next 7-to-10 days.
