TOKYO (AP) -- On the other side of the world, these New York Yankees looked lost.
Jose Cruz Jr. hit a tying home run that sparked a comeback, Tino Martinez helped beat his former team with his 300th career homer and the lowly Tampa Bay Devil Rays roughed up Mike Mussina in defeating the Yankees 8-3 Tuesday night.
"Hopefully, it's 5 a.m. and not many people were watching," Alex Rodriguez said, thinking of when the game began, New York time.
The team that dominates the AL East couldn't do much in the Far East, getting outhit 15-7 and playing sluggishly in the field.
