CLEVELAND - Rookie Billy Traber pitched a one-hitter for his first complete game Tuesday night, leading the Cleveland Indians to a 4-0 win over the New York Yankees, who rested Derek Jeter and Alfonso Soriano.

Traber (4-5), whose only previous link to New York was as a Mets prospect, dominated a depleted Yankees lineup that struggled with the left-hander's offspeed pitches and unorthodox delivery.

"It was Greg Maddux-like," Yankees manager Joe Torre said of Traber needing just 2 hours, 11 minutes to shut out New York. "He didn't throw hard, but you don't have to when you throw strikes."

After giving up a leadoff single to John Flaherty in the third inning, Traber retired the final 21 in a row and 27 of 28. He walked none, struck out five and didn't allow a Yankee to reach second base.

Matt Lawton homered, and Casey Blake had three hits off Jeff Weaver (4-7) as the Indians improved to 7-3 in their last 10 games.

Red Sox 2, Blue Jays 1, 12 innings

TORONTO - Boston's Jason Varitek hit a go-ahead single in the 12th inning. Johnny Damon led off with a double off Jeff Tam (0-3) and Varitek, who had entered as a pinch hitter in the 10th, singled to center to drive in the tiebreaking run.
