NEW YORK - Catcher Russell Martin homered twice and drove in four runs as the Toronto Blue Jays opened a four-game series at Yankee Stadium with an 11-5 victory over the New York Yankees on Friday night.

Martin had his 14th game with at least four RBI and first since June 6, 2014 for Pittsburgh against Milwaukee. He began his big night with an RBI single with one out in the third which chased rookie right-hander Luis Severino (3-2).
