Well it is a rough start for Joba.  5 straight hits, 4 earned runs.  After that, though, he gets down to business and enjoys 12 strike outs in 5.2 innings.  The Yankees get 3 in the third to try and catch up off a Damon 3 run homer.  In the eighth an intent walk to Drew, who already struck out twice, may have lead to 2 runs being scored.  I was really confused that they did that.  Oh well.  5-3.
In the ninth, Melancon walks the bases loaded with no outs.  Robertson does a great job, getting 2 outs but can't hold off a walk.  And thats how it ends.  7-3.  0-5 against the Red Sox so far.  Doing really good.  I just hope the Yankees beat can win 3 in the play offs against them.  We shall see.
Joba had a rough start but cleaned up with 12 Ks before being taken out.  I thought it was a bit early to take him out, because the 2 outs in the inning were strike outs. Weird.
Bullpen probably won't be an option, having 6 pitchers after the starter.  Damon had a good game 2-4 with the 3 RBIs of the game.  Cano and Swisher in a 2 game slump.  How convenient.  Cabrera was 3-4.
Burnett pitching tomorrow against the Rays at home.  Come on win!! Please oh please!  7:05.
