Both teams score 1 in the second, the Phillies scored one off a home run and Swisher had a ground out that scored Cano. The Phillies score 3 more in the fifth, though with a 3 run homer and Jeter gets 1 in the sixth. 4-2.
In the ninth inning Damon leads off with a walk and Rodriguez hits him home with a home run to tie the game at 4! Cano singles after that and brings up Cabrera. Cabrera singles to score Cano and it is another come from behind win with Cabrera being the clutch man! 4-5 final!
Pettitte started and he went for 7 innings giving up 4 earned runs off of 5 hits with 2 walks and 5 strike outs. It was a good start, the line up didn't wake up till the ninth inning I guess. Veras gets the win when I thought he was going to blow it in the ninth. Not blow it but make it worse for the line up. Anyways, Teixeira went 2-4, Gardner went 1-1 with a double but wasn't able to score, Swisher went 0-3 with a strike out. Come on Swisher, let it be April again for you. Had such a good start.

Game 43, Gainst the Orioles, at home, going for the Sweep
After just 2 outs, 14 pitches, Joba Chamberlain is done for the night. A pitch hit right back to him hit him in the knee and he was taken out 2 singles later. Does this count for a win if the Yankees score in the first and keep the lead. We'll find out.
In the bottom of the first Jeter doubles, Cano doubles to score Jeter, and Teixeira doubles to score Cano. Thats right, Cano's batting second this game. Damon is not in the line up at all tonight. After two outs, Swisher walks and Cabrera doubles to score Teixeira and Swisher but is called out at third on the throw. Trying to stretch it a little to far.
In the second Cano homers with Gardner on base. 0-6. In the fifth the Orioles get 1 from a home run but Matsui evens it back out with a home run of his own. The Orioles get 2 more in the sixth and 1 more in the seventh to make the games final 4-7. 9 straight.
Joba does not get the win. Surprise, Alfredo Aceves gets the win, finishing the first inning and three more. Rivera gets his ninth save tonight, 491 total. Cano went 3-4 with a home run and 3 RBIs. Teixeira went 2-3 with an RBI and scored a run. Rodriguez went 0-4.
Yankees play the World Champions tomorrow. The Phillies in New Yankee Stadium. Burnett, lets have a good game.

Joba Game 2 in streak
So this will be Joba's second start in this 8 game streak. His last outing, in my opinion, was one of the best of his season so far. He pitched for 6 innings against the Twins, only gave up 2 earned runs off of 3 hits and had 6 strike outs. He did not get the W because Coke pitched and lost the lead in the seventh giving up a home run and 2 runs. In this streak, I think Joba is the only starter who did not get a win. So lets get it tonight baby.
Joba starts tonight against the Orioles in New Yankee Stadium at 7:05.

Games 40 and 41 at home, Gainst the Twins and Orioles
I went camping the last 2 days, got a nice tan, but missed an exciting game on Monday and a great inning Tuesday. Here they are:
After giving up 2 in the first the Yankees put their bats to work and go through the entire line up in the first inning. After singles by Jeter and Damon Teixeira hits them home with a 3 run homerun. Not to be outdone, Rodriguez hits 1 of his own right after Teixeira empties the bases. Cano hits a ground rule double and Cabrera hits him home with a single. Cervelli hits Cabrera home with a single. 6 runs scored in the first inning.
The Twins threaten a little bit later, scoring 1 in the forth and sixth, but Teixeira keeps the Yankees ahead with another home run in the seventh. The final score, 6-7 Yankees.
Pettitte gets the win allowing 4 runs, 12 hits, giving 1 walk and 3 strike outs. Jeter went 2-5, both hits in the first inning, Teixeira went 2-4, both hits home runs, Rodriguez went 1-3, his hit being a home run. Swisher definetly still struggling, 0-4.
Yesterdays game I wish I could have seen. Just because it looked like it was going to be close, until the seventh.
After giving up 1 run in the first, the Yankees answer back with 2. With Damon on, Rodriguez hits a home run to give the Yankees the lead, 1-2. Nothing happens till the bottom of the seventh. Swisher and Cano walk and Cabrera singles to load the bases. Cervelli reaches on a fielding error to score Swisher. Jeter doubles to score Cano, Cabrera, and Cervelli. Damon singles to score Jeter, and Teixeira hits a home run to score Damon and himself. 1-9 Final.
Sabathia pitched until the seventh inning and he left with a very comforatable lead and gets the win. He allowed 1 earned run on 3 hits giving 1 walk and 7 strike outs. Looking more and more like himself every game. Teixeira and Rodriguez went 1-3, 1-4 respectively, both hits being home runs. Swisher went 0-3, come on Swisher.

Game 39, gainst the Twins, at home
Burnett Starts tonight against the Twins in game 3 of this 4 game series.
The Twins score first in the top of the seventh with 2 runs in, but the Yankees answer back with 2 of their own. Alex Rodriguez hits a home run and Matsui doubles and scores later that inning. The winning run tonight doesn't come until the tenth when Damon hits a game winning home run.
Burnett started giving up 2 earned runs off of 6 hits, 6 walks with 7 strike outs. Yikes, 6 hits and 6 walks. In a bad game that could be the equivlent to 12 earned runs against. Anyways the bullpen took care of things after the 2 runs and no more were scored. Damon had a great game going 3-4 with the game winning home run. Many of the Yankees are still experienceing their droughts, Cano 0-2, Pena 0-3, Matsui 1-4, Rodriguez 1-3. Come on, start hitting or you won't win unless you're playing the Twins. Not many other teams will only score 2 or 3 runs against.

Game 38, Gainst the Twins, at home
Joba pitches today. He gets off to a great start with two strike outs in the first inning, but it gets a little rocky in the second when a score runs on a sacrifice double play. 1-0 After a Jeter and a Damon walk, Teixeira hits a home run to make it 1-3 in the bottom of the third. But the twins get 1 back in the forth off a home run by Joe Mauer. The Twins get 2 more in the eighth but Teixeira ties it up in the bottom with a single to score Pena. It stays like this until the 12th inning when Teixeira walks and Alex Rodriguez hits a home run to win 4-6.
Chamberlain has a good start pitching 6 innings, giving up 2 earned runs off of 3 hits, 4 walks with 6 strike outs. Teixeira goes 4-4, holy crap, where did this guy come from, with 4 of the 6 RBIs the Yankees had. Like Gardner was the winner of last night, Teixeira single handedly kept the Yankees in this game. He did great while everyone else slumped.
