Masahiro Tanaka made a triumphant return from an elbow injury that sidelined him for 2 1/2 months and a rejuvenated Derek Jeter got yet another big hit on his final homestand, leading the New York Yankees over the Toronto Blue Jays 5-2 Sunday. With fans in the crowd of 48,144 giving him standing ovations during every at-bat on the gray, overcast afternoon, Jeter went 2 for 4 and finished his next-to-last home series 8 for 15 with two doubles, a home run and three RBIs. When the retiring 40-year-old Yankees captain batted in the seventh, most fans held up phones and cameras to take photographs and video. In between McCann's drives, Brett Gardner put New York ahead 2-1 in the fifth against Drew Hutchison (10-13) with the Yankees' 15,000th home run since the franchise started play in New York in 1903.
