ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- New look, same result for the overhauled New York Yankees.

The Tampa Bay Devil Rays batted around on Kevin Brown in the first inning Tuesday night, scoring six runs on their way to an 11-4 victory in the debut of the revamped lineup the Yankees are counting on to pull them out of an early-season funk.

Nick Green had a two-run single, and Travis Phelps and Aubrey Huff also drove in two runs apiece against Brown (0-4), who allowed eight runs and matched a career-high by yielding 13 hits in five innings.

Brown was 4-0 with a 1.88 ERA against Tampa Bay last season, but hasn't pitched well against anyone lately. He has lost seven straight starts dating to last season, the longest skid of his career.

The Devil Rays never gave the Yankees a chance to see whether their revamped lineup works.

Eight of the first nine batters had hits off Brown, and the early deficit was too much for New York's sputtering offense to overcome against Doug Waechter (1-1).

Tino Martinez and Jorge Posada hit solo homers off the Devil Rays starter. Derek Jeter drove in New York's other two runs with a two-out triple off Waechter, who allowed four runs and six hits in seven innings to help the last-place Devil Rays snap an eight-game losing streak.

Yankees manager Joe Torre unveiled a new lineup with Hideki Matsui in center field, Tony Womack in left and minor league prospect Robinson Cano making his major league debut at second base -- a series of moves that bumped Bernie Williams, the regular center fielder since 1993, into a designated hitter's role. Cano went 0-for-3.

The Devil Rays matched a team record for first-inning runs with six. Toby Hall's two-run single off Felix Rodriguez made it 10-4 in the seventh. Phelps finished with three RBI for Tampa Bay, driving in the final run with an eighth-inning double off Rodriguez.
