"CC Sabathia had a chance to lock down the AL East crown for the Yankees last night and win his 20th game for the second straight year.

The Yankees got their division title, but Sabathia's milestone will have to wait. The big left-hander was solid last night, though he was unable to finish off the Rays in the eighth. But the Yankees used Jorge Posada's pinch-hit single to complete a sweep of yesterday's doubleheader, 4-2, in the nightcap.

"I tried to do whatever I could to keep us in the game," said Sabathia, who remained 19-8 with the no-decision."
