ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - CC Sabathia, pitching on short rest, matched zeros with Scott Kazmir through three innings in Game 4 of the AL championship series Tuesday night as the New York Yankees tried to take a 3-1 lead over the Los Angeles Angels.

After consecutive extra-inning games that took a combined 9 hours, 31 minutes, the first three innings Tuesday were played in 63 minutes.

Six players in the Yankees' lineup came into the game with at least 24 at-bats and a lifetime average under .200 against Kazmir -- Derek Jeter (.111), Alex Rodriguez (.125), Johnny Damon (.167), Hideki Matsui (.179), Robinson Cano (.154) and switch-hitting Nick Swisher (.185).

New York, which led the majors with 915 runs during the regular season, got the leadoff man on in each of the first three innings but couldn't push anyone across. Jeter opened the game with a single, but was quickly erased as Kendry Morales took Kazmir's pickoff throw and relayed to shortstop Erick Aybar for the tag.
