NEW YORK -- Carlos Beltran is done talking about his elbow. Swingman Latrell Sprewell Jersey . All hes focused on now is trying to help the Yankees make the playoffs. Beltran gave New Yorks struggling offence a jolt with a home run in his return to the lineup, Martin Prado had another go-ahead hit and the Yankees beat the Chicago White Sox 5-3 on Saturday. "Its just an issue that I have there," Beltran said about his elbow. "What is important is just being able to come to the ballpark every day and find a way to be in the lineup. ... Im just thinking about winning ballgames." Hiroki Kuroda (9-8) worked in and out of trouble for six innings, allowing two runs and five hits in helping the Yankees to their third straight win after a 2-7 stretch. New York remained 3 1/2 games behind Seattle for the second AL wild card. Beltran missed the previous three games because of a sore right elbow that has almost exclusively limited him to a designated hitter role since May. He singled and scored in the fourth, when the Yankees ran themselves out of a chance to break open the game, and led off the sixth with a drive off Scott Carroll (5-8) that just cleared the fence in right field. Stephen Drews sacrifice fly in the sixth put New York up 5-2, the first time the Yankees had scored more than four runs since Aug. 8, a span of 11 games. "Were grinding out better at-bats," catcher Brian McCann said. David Robertson pitched a scoreless ninth for his 34th save. Yankees batters did not strike out in a game for the first time since May 12, 2011, in an 11-5 loss to Kansas City. Alexei Ramirez had an RBI double in the second but Chicago wasted an early lead for the second straight day -- matching a season high with its fifth loss in a row. "You have to continue to grind and get some runs on," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "You have to put some crooked numbers late and you get a better chance." Prado hit a two-run double in the fourth that put New York up for good. He had a game-ending RBI single with two outs in the ninth Friday night. The Yankees squandered a chance for a big inning in the fourth, with Prado and Teixeira getting caught in rundowns between second and third. New York had seven consecutive batters reach in the inning but scored only on Prados double. McCann started the inning when left fielder Alejandro De Aza lost his routine fly in the sun, letting it drop for a leadoff double. Carroll allowed five runs -- four earned -- and seven hits in six innings. Honouring NO. 6 The Yankees retired former manager Joe Torres No. 6 in a pregame ceremony. The new Hall of Famer led New York to four World Series championships in his first five years running the Yankees from 1996-2000. The Yankees made the playoffs in each of Torres 12 seasons in the Bronx. TRAINERS ROOM White Sox: RHP Javy Guerra was activated from the bereavement list and LHP Eric Surkamp was sent to Triple-A Charlotte. ... OF Adam Eaton (strained right oblique) was set to start his rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte. Yankees: RHP Masahiro Tanaka (elbow ligament) threw 35 pitches in a two-inning simulated game and said he felt fine. The Yankees will wait to see how the Japanese ace feels Sunday before determining the next step in his rehab. ... SS Derek Jeter was given the day off. UP NEXT In a matchup of left-handers, White Sox All-Star Chris Sale (10-3) faces Chris Capuano (1-3) in the finale of the three-game series. Capuano has struck out Adam Dunn 12 times in 27 at-bats, but Dunn has two homers. Sale is 3-0 with a 0.85 ERA against New York. ON THE ROAD AGAIN White Sox RHP Matt Lindstrom pitched two perfect innings, lowering his road ERA to 1.33 since 2011, the second-best mark for relievers during that period. Stephen Curry Jersey . -- The first full day at the Masters turned out to be a short one Monday. Mitch Richmond Jersey . The 29-year-old scored once and assisted on another as Colorado edged the host Calgary Flames 3-2 on Friday.ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills running back C.J. Spiller and linebacker Manny Lawson are doubtful for Sundays game against the New Orleans Saints. Spiller has attempted to play through his ankle injury in recent weeks but has been limited on the field. In the past three games, Spiller has 24 carries for 132 yards and one touchdown. He suffered the injury in Week 4 against Baltimore. Lawson aggravated a hamstring injury in Buffalos win over Miami on Sunday and had a setback during the week. Hes recorded 40 tackles, one sack and one forced fumble through seven games. Neither player practiced on Friday. Custom Warriors Jersey. "Were planning on taking that to game time," Bills coach Doug Marrone said of both players. "It may change before that." Running back Fred Jackson is expected to receive a majority of the carries if Spiller is unable to play. Jackson, who also has been hampered in recent weeks because of a sprained knee, is listed as probable. He was held out of practice on Wednesday but participated on a limited basis on Thursday and Friday. The Bills promoted Ronnie Wingo from the practice squad to the active roster and released cornerback Brandon Burton.
