Giambi's encore two-run shot in the third gave the Yankees a 4-1 lead and his second home run of the game.
Yankees tacked on another run in the fifth by an Alex Rodriguez sacrifice fly.
Randy Johnson cruised through the game in his old form retiring 21 out of 24 batters after giving up a home run to Tejada giving up three hits, all by Tejada
