Teixeira hits 2 HRs in Yanks' exhibition (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Mark Teixeira is feeling right at home in his new house. Flashing the power stroke that earned him a $180 million contract with the Yankees, Teixeira homered twice and drove in four runs to lead New York over the lethargic Chicago Cubs 10-1 on Saturday. Derek Jeter added a three-run shot and the Bronx Bombers opened their glitzy new ballpark by sweeping a pair of exhibition games from Chicago.
