Austin Kearns hit his first homer in 105 at-bats this season, a stunning three-run shot in the seventh inning off New York's A.J. Burnett, to send the Cleveland Indians to a 6-3 win and spoil All-Star Derek Jeter's return to the Yankees' lineup Monday night.

Jimmy Rollins sent A.J. Burnett's first pitch of the night deep over the right-field scoreboard. A few innings later, Jayson Werth became the first player to reach the left field second deck at baseball's newest launching pad. In the eighth inning, Mark Teixeria hit the first drive into the suite level.

AJ Burnett’s no-hitter disappeared in the seventh inning, and so did his shutout.
