Swisher had a run-scoring single in the bottom of the seventh for New York prior to Ibanez’s big blow.

Curtis Granderson’s run-scoring groundout in the third put New York ahead for good. Alex Rodriguez added a run-scoring single and Mark Teixeira belted a run-scoring double later in the inning to give the Yankees a 4-1 edge. Swisher capped the four-run inning with a sacrifice fly.

Mark Trumbo homered for Los Angeles in the second inning. Ibanez had a game-tying single in the bottom of the frame.
