Yankees 6, Twins 5: Brian Roberts had a career-high four extra-base hits, scored twice and drove in a run as New York continued its dominance in Minnesota to move back above .500.

Jacoby Ellsbury drove two runs, Francisco Cervelli had three hits and Mark Teixeira added an RBI single as the Yankees won their seventh straight at Target Field and improved to 16-3 in their last 19 at Minnesota. Roberts had three doubles and a triple for a career-high nine total bases to help make a winner of David Huff (3-0), who struck out three and retired all nine batters he faced in relief of an ineffective Chase Whitley.

Chris Colabello homered and drove in a pair of runs and Brian Dozier added a solo shot for the Twins, who lost for the ninth time in 11 games. Kyle Gibson (7-7), who entered with a 1.54 ERA in six home starts, lasted only two innings and was blasted for six runs - five earned - on six hits, five of which went for extra bases.

The Yankees came out swinging as Brett Gardner led off the game with a triple, Roberts and Teixeira delivered RBI doubles and Carlos Beltran added a sacrifice fly for a 3-0 lead. After Dozier hit a leadoff homer in the bottom of the inning, New York added three more runs in the second on Brendan Ryan's sacrifice fly and Ellsbury's two-out, two-RBI single.

Staked to the 6-1 lead, Whitley surrendered a leadoff homer to Colabello in the second and gave up two more runs in the third when Oswaldo Arcia tripled home one run and scored on Trevor Plouffe's RBI single to cut the deficit to 6-4. Dellin Betances gave up a run in the eighth on Colabello's groundout before David Robertson worked around a two-out double in the ninth for his 20th save.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Roberts is the first New York player with four extra-base hits since Alex Rodriguez (two homers, two doubles) in April 2005 and became the first Yankee with at least three doubles and a triple in a contest since Red Rolfe in 1936. ... Colabello homered in his first at-bat since his recall from Triple-A Rochester, ending an 0-for-22 slump in his previous eight games, but LF Chris Parmelee went 0-for-5 and had his 13-game hitting streak snapped. ... Yankees LHP CC Sabathia, who was shut down due to swelling in his knee following a rehab start Wednesday night, could be facing season-ending microfracture surgery, according to manager Joe Girardi.
