Call at first overturned after Wash's challenge

Originally ruled out, Beltre reaches as umpires tag Yanks with fifth error of night

NEW YORK -- A successful challenge by Rangers manager Ron Washington left the Yankees with five errors through seven innings on Monday.

The Yankees had committed four errors, including three by starting pitcher Shane Greene, when Adrian Beltre led off the seventh against reliever Adam Warren with a grounder to shortstop Derek Jeter.

Jeter's throw to first beat Beltre, but first baseman Kelly Johnson had to stretch for it. First-base umpire Quinn Wolcott called Beltre out, but Washington challenged the call and got it overturned. Jeter was given an error, his eighth of the season.
