Yanks edge Jays 9-8 with Giambi Walk-Off HR

Pinch-hitter Jason Giambi connected for a two-run homer with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning, rallying the Yankees to a 9-8 victory over the Blue Jays on Thursday.
Giambi's drive off closer B.J. Ryan into the right-field upper deck -- just inside the foul pole -- capped New York's biggest comeback win this season. In erasing a 7-2 deficit, the Yankees overcame another poor outing by Chien-Ming Wang and a key error by center fielder Melky Cabrera.
