KANSAS CITY, Mo. Mason Cole Jersey . -- Robinson Cano picked a grand time to break the Yankees out of their offensive slump. The second baseman went deep off Luke Hochevar with the bases loaded in the third inning on Sunday, and Nick Swisher followed with a solo shot two batters later, giving New York plenty of offence in a 10-4 rout of the Kansas City Royals. Alex Rodriguez added a three-run shot in the eighth inning, helping the Yankees to a four-game split. The series began with a freak, season-ending injury to All-Star closer Mariano Rivera, but ended with the Yankees best offensive output in a dozen games. "Great to see that from the middle of the order," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "We know what these guys are capable of doing and eventually its going to come." The Yankees already led on RBI singles by Raul Ibanez and Curtis Granderson when Cano came to the plate with the bases loaded in the third inning. He connected on a 2-1 pitch from Hochevar (2-3), sending the ball over the wall in right field for his second homer of the season. Swisher added a solo shot two batters later, and A-Rods homer came in the eighth. "It took a huge day by Robbie to get us back on track," Swisher said. "Its just what we needed. These guys have been doing it their entire careers. Were not stressed about it." Phil Hughes (2-4) took advantage of the run support to go a season-high 6 2-3 innings. It was only the second time the right-hander had allowed fewer than four runs this season. The Royals had nine hits, but couldnt put them together for a big inning. "I kind of got into a groove after the second inning," Hughes said. "The few times there were guys in scoring position, I was able to execute my pitches and get out of jams." Billy Butler provided an RBI double in the first, Alex Gordon added a run-scoring single in the fifth, and Humberto Quintero snapped a 0-for-18 skid with a solo homer in the seventh. Jarrod Dyson tacked on an RBI single in the ninth. That was all the Royals could muster. The Yankees had been having a similarly hard time scoring lately. They managed a combined 11 runs over the past five games, their worst stretch since June 2009, and were coming off a game in which Derek Jeter, Cano, Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira combined to go 1 for 15 at the plate. They didnt have much problem against Hochevar. The Royals former No. 1 overall draft pick was battered for the second straight start, his ERA soaring to 9.00 on the season. He was yanked after 2 1-3 innings, and has allowed 16 runs and 19 hits with four walks and a hit batter his past two starts. "I need to get back to square one and figure it out and get things going," he said, "and start helping this club and not be putting us in a hole early in the game." Hochevar got in trouble right from the opening pitch, giving up a leadoff single to Jeter, who reached base four times on the afternoon. But the Yankees didnt really capitalize until the third inning, when their bats finally awoke with a vengeance. No. 9 hitter Dewayne Wise started a string of three straight base hits, and Grandersons RBI single was the 1,000th hit of his career. Rodriguez was hit by a pitch to the load the bases for Cano, who delivered his first grand slam since last September against Baltimore. Cano has five grand slams in his past 78 games, regular and post-season combined. "You look at his at-bats today and they were really good," Girardi said. "We know hes a little behind where we expected him to be at this time of the year, but hes not the only hitter in Major League Baseball thats a little behind. Hell catch up." Swisher, who had the Yankees other slam this season, chased Hochevar when he sent a 1-2 pitch into the seats in right two batters later. Swisher had been out since hurting his hamstring last Sunday against Detroit, but looked just fine trotting around the bases at Kauffman Stadium. "It was just nice to be back in there," he said. Irving Falu provided the Royals with perhaps the only bright spot on the day. Falu had spent more than nine years and 949 games in the minor leagues before getting his first major league start at shortstop. He tripled in his first at-bat, and then added a single in the fifth inning, coming around to score on Gordons base hit. "It was great to see him and get a triple in his first major league at-bat," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "And then get another base hit, play great defence at shortstop. That was a real positive note." Notes: Andy Pettitte pitched five innings and allowed five runs, three earned, on eight hits Sunday for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the Yankees Triple-A affiliate. Pettitte could join the major league roster this week. ... New York is off Monday before starting a six-game homestand against Tampa Bay. ...

Leuer scored 16 points and grabbed a career-best 12 rebounds Monday night to help the short-handed Grizzlies build an early lead and hold on to defeat the Orlando Magic 94-85. "Weve had a lot of guys go down," Leuer said. "It obviously makes it tough, but it opens up other opportunities for guys to come in and contribute." Memphis reserves outscored their Orlando counterparts 38-4, helping send the Magic to their sixth straight loss. The Grizzlies bench players are getting more playing time as injuries to four key players left only nine available against Orlando. Memphis centre Marc Gasol is out indefinitely with a knee injury, while Ed Davis (ankle) and Tony Allen (hip) also sat out. Earlier in the day, the Grizzlies announced guard/forward Quincy Pondexter will miss significant time, possibly the rest of the season, with a right foot stress fracture. "Guys are stepping up. Thats what we need. We need everybody now," said Memphis forward Zach Randolph, who led the Grizzlies with 19 points and matched Leuers 12 boards, part of Memphis 52-35 rebounding advantage. Mike Conley had 13 points for Memphis and Jerryd Bayless finished with 11 points, including a late 3-pointer to preserve the win and end a two-game slide. Conley also had seven assists. The Magic were missing centre Nikola Vucevic, their leading rebounder and second-leading scorer, who missed his fourth straight game with a sprained left ankle. "The good thing is these bumps are coming early as far as tough losses and guys not being healthy," said Magic centre Glen Davis, who had 16 points and nine rebounds. "If we can get guys healthy and learn to stay together, we can overcome these obstacles." Andrew Nicholson and Jameer Nelson led the Magic with 19 points apiece. Nicholson also grabbed 11 rebounds while hhitting 8 of 12 from the field. Chase Edmonds Jersey. Arron Afflalo scored 17 points and Victor Oladipo added 10. Jason Maxiell was Orlandos sole reserve to score, getting four points. Memphis, which led by as many as 23 in the game, held a 14-point lead with just over 7 minutes left, but had to withstand a final push from the Magic. "There is always a point in the game that you can give in, or you can choose to rally around each other and try to fight," Orlando coach Jacque Vaughn said. "We put a group out on the floor that gave us a chance to do that. They gave us a chance to win." The short bench didnt seem to faze Memphis in the first half. The Grizzlies used 19 unanswered points spanning the first and second quarters to take a 51-30 lead at the break. While Memphis was going on its 19-0 run, the Magic went almost 7 minutes without scoring. Nicholson did his best to pull the Magic back into the game, scoring 13 points in the third. That allowed Orlando to pull within 10 before Jamaal Franklins 3-pointer at the horn gave Memphis a 73-60 lead entering the final quarter. But the Magic continued to push behind Afflalo, whose seven early points in the final frame included a pair of free throws with 4:19 left to get Orlando within 85-78. The run eventually would reach 12-2, and the Magic were within 87-83. But Randolph scored the next three points, and the Grizzlies weathered the rally for only their second win in the last seven home games. "Its tough. Its real tough," Randolph said of the injuries. "Weve got to just come out and play. Everyone has to step up like theyve been doing." NOTES: Franklin had a career-high eight points. ... The Grizzlies had their string of eight consecutive games with eight different leading scorers end. ... Memphis G Nick Calathes had a career-high eight assists. ... Leuers previous best in rebounds was nine on two occasions, including earlier this month against Phoenix. ... Orlando is 1-10 on the road this season.
