Last night on Sportscenter they were talking about the Yankees come from behind win. They said it was the 20th time the Yankees have come from behind to win. Fantastic, lets keep winning, even if you only get the lead in the eighth. Pettitte pitches tonight.
Yankees get a little early lead in the first with a Teixeira home run. 0-1. In the second inning, Cano leads off with a single and, after 2 outs, Swisher comes up and smacks a home run that would be a home run anywhere. 0-3. Rodriguez has an error at third, runner advances on wild pitch, and gets to third on a fly ball is hit home with a single, then a home run hits in 2 more. 3-3. In the bottom of the sixth Damon gives Pettitte the lead with a solo home run and some margin for victory if the Yankees can defend well. 3-4. In the bottom of the eighth, first pitch, Jeter hits an insurance home run. 3-5. Final
Pettitte does get the win with 6 innings pitched, giving up 3 runs off of 5 hits and 3 walks with 7 strike outs. The Yankees had 6 hits today, 4 of those home runs by 4 different Yankees. In order those Yankees are; Teixeira, Swisher, Damon, and Jeter. Cano had a single in the second and Swisher in the seventh. Swisher 2-3 HR 2 RBI.
Yankees move up to a full game ahead of the Red Sox going into a three game series in Fenway. We know how the Yankees have done against the Red Sox so far in this season. Just 1 win will keep put back the Yankees back in a tie, but 2 wins, still in first, 3 wins, Boston Massacre.
