NEW YORK (AP) — Nick Johnson and Nick Swisher homered, Mark Teixeira hit a two-run double and New York's depleted bullpen barely held on as the Yankees beat the Baltimore Orioles 7-5 on Wednesday to finish a three-game sweep.

Missing closer Mariano Rivera, the New York relief corps nearly coughed up a comfortable lead after Andy Pettitte held down the Orioles — as usual.

With Rivera resting a stiff left side muscle and Joba Chamberlain unavailable after closing out the last two games, the Yankees' bullpen struggled. New York led 6-1 after seven innings, but the Orioles scored four times against five relievers.
