The second inning starts off with a walk to Rodriguez. After he steals second, Posada is hit by a pitch and Cano reaches on an error. Ransom walks to score 1, Garder grounds out to score another, and Jeter singles to score a third. The Twins get 2 back with a home run, walk and an error. 3-2. In the forth the Yankees get 2 more with a single by Posada, a double by Cano, a Ransom RBI single, and a Garnder RBI single. The Twins also get 2 runs with a double, single and to many walks. 5-4. Teixeira homers in the sixth to make it 6-4. Final.
Aceves doesn't have the perfect game, doesn't even get the w, but keeps the game from getting out of hand. He allows 4 runs on 4 hits with 1 walk and 2 strike outs in 3.1 innings.
All the Yankee starters had a hit today except Swisher. Teixeira had a HR, Cano had a double, Cabrera had a double, the rest singles, and RBI singles.
From a 4 game series, 3 walk off wins, to a 3 game series where the Yankees have never lost the lead, the Yankees have played the Twins perfectly this season. Well, the Yankees have let the runs scores, have made their errors, but the record shows perfection. 7-0.

Game 86, Gainst the Twins, Lets keep it going...
The Yankees get it started right with 1 run scored in the first and 2 in the second. Jeter singles to start of the game, Teixeira moves him to third with a single and Matsui hits him home with a single as well. In the second, Cano doubled to start off the second inning, Gardner singles right after him, moves Cano to third, and a sacrifice fly by Cervelli scores Cano. Then a single by Damon moves Gardner to third and a single by Teixeira scores Gardner. A home run in the bottom of the inning by Michael Cuddyer gets 1 for the Twins. 3-1.
Cervelli singled to start off the forth, Jeter walks right behind him, Damon walks behind him, Rodriguez scores Cervelli from third on a sacrifice fly (over the fence sac fly, should have been grand slam sac fly), Matsui walks to load the bases again, and Swisher walks, with two out to score an RBI. 5-1.
Big inning in the sixth. Teixeira singles, Rodriguez walks, Swisher walks with two out. Two out, bases loaded, same situation as the forth. Anyways, Cano singles, scores Teixeira and Rodriguez, moves Swisher to third. Garnder triples to score Swisher and Cano. Cervelli doubles to score Gardner. Wow, why can't we have hits like that all the time with 2 outs? 5 runs score with two outs in the inning, 8 out of 10 so far. 10-1 after six. After taking Sabathia out in the eighth, Brett Tomko gives up a run in the inning, just 1. 10-2 Final.
Sabathia pitched 7 innings, gave up 1 earned run off of 3 hits with 1 walk and 3 strike outs. It seemed he didn't have the right pitch to get batters out at home, but get them out in the field. With only 3 strike outs, the team backed him up with 8 ground outs and 10 fly outs.
Teixeira went 4-6 with 4 singles with 1 run and 1 RBI. Cano went 2-5 with a double, 2 runs, and 2 RBIs. Gardner went 3-5 with a triple, 2 runs, and 2 RBIs. Cervelli, for Posada, went 2-4 with a double, 1 run, and 2 RBIs.
Roy Halladay for sale? Yankees, Get him before the Red Sox do!!!! Come on, Pettitte's gonna retire soon, Wang may need more help, Joba isn't putting up the right numbers...
Burnett pitches tomorrow, 8:10 at the Metrodome. Interesting note, Alfredo Aceves will pitch for Wang on Thursday. Interesting, lets see how that goes...

In the first the Yankees score 1 off a Rodriguez single to score a walked and advanced Damon. In the second, after a walk, a ground rule double, and a 2 run single, the Blue Jays take the lead, 2-1. But the Yankees quickly tie with a Matsui home run. 2-2. In the forth the Yankees get ahead with a Home run by Posada. 2-3.
After a Jay double, homer, 2 walks and a 1 run single the score reads 5-3. But the Yankees keep pace with a single by Jeter and a home run by Damon to tie it back up at 5. The next run doesn't come in for either team until the twelth inning, when Posada comes up with 2 on, 1 out. He hits a single to score Rodriguez, who was intentionally walked, from second. 5-6 Final.
Wang pitched 5.1 innings, gave up 4 runs off of 5 hits with 1 walk and 1 strike out. Teixeira went 3-6 with 2 singles and a double, but was not involved in any of the runs scored. Rodriguez went 2-3 with 3 walks, scored a run with an RBI. Posada went 2-6 with a HR and the game winning RBI.
With the Red Sox loss today, 3-2 against the Mariners, the Yankees move to just 1 behind.

Game 78, Gainst the Mets, Subway Sweep complete, Mo 500!!
I saw the first 2 innings of this game in a resturant in Ft Wayne, then I listened to the next 6 innings in the car on my way home to South Bend, then I saw the last inning at home. I was hopeing, wishing, praying that it would all work out for Wang and Rivera on the same night, and it did in a big sweet way.
Before Wang had to throw his first pitch the Yankees gave him some breathing room. In the first, Jeter starts off with a double. He beats out the throw to third to get Swisher on with a fielders choice. Teixeira hits a 2 run double and is scored after advancing to third on a Cano ground out and scores on a Posada sacrifice fly. 3-0.
The Mets get 2 in the forth after a walk, double, ground out and single. 3-2. The next and final run doesn't happen until the ninth inning.
Posada singles, Cabrera force out, Gardner walk, Damon line out, Jeter intentional walk. Bases loaded, 2 out for Mariano Rivera. He works a full count with a nice cut foul ball in there. Ball four! Rivera gets an RBI with a walk! 4-2 Final, Wang gets the win, Rivera gets number 500!!!!
Wang pitched 5.1 innings, gave up 2 runs on 4 hits with 3 walks and 3 strike outs. He is now 1-6 with an ERA of 10.06, 1 more batter and he might have dropped down to single digits... River pitched for the last 4 batters with 2 strike outs and 2 ground outs he gets his 500th career save!
Jeter went 1-2 with a double and 3 walks. Swisher went 1-2 with 1 walk. He was taken out during the sixth inning to switch around the out field and pitching spot in the line up. Teixeira went 1-4 but his hit was a 2 run double! Not a great game but a win none the less.
5 straight!

Cano doubles, Rodriguez advances to third, and Posada hits a home run to score both of them. 5-0, Final.

Game 75, Gainst the Braves, Decide the Series
Pettitte pitches tonight.
Yankees get stated early. 5 hits in the first, Jeter, Damon, Rodriguez, Posada (walk) Swisher, and Garnder. The Yankees only get 2 runs out of it, however, Teixeira grounded into a double play and Rodriguez's hit was a home run with Jeter on third. The Braves get on back in the bottom of the first. 2-1.
The Yankees get another run in the second with a Jeter single, Damon walk, and a Rodriguez single to score Jeter from third. 3-1. In the top of the third the Yankees get some more with a Gardner single, Ransom single, Jeter walk, and a Damon triple! 6-1.
In the fourth, Rodriguez gets on by an error and Posada hits to third with a single. Ransom hits a double to score them both, 8-1. The Braves score 5 in the forth, and we got ourselves a ball game, 8-6 now.
After a Jeter single, Damon walk, double steal, Teixeira intentional walk, Rodriguez hits a single to score Jeter and Damon, 10-6. In the eighth, the Yankees tack on 1 more with a Damon single to score Ransom. 11-6. The Braves got 1 more in the bottom of the ninth. Final 11-7. The Yankees scored at least 1 run in all except 2 innings.
Pettitte pitched 3.2 innings, gave up 6 runs, 3 earned, on 7 hits, with 3 walks and 4 strike outs. Not a good start but with the Yankees hitting, it's ok.
Jeter went 4-5 with a walk and getting on through an error. He was on 6 times and scored 4 runs! Damon went 3-4 with a triple and 2 walks. He scored 4 RBIs! Rodriguez went 3-5 with a home run. He also scored 4 RBIs! Ransom went 2-5 scoreing twice with 2 RBIs. Teixeira 0-5. Great hitting game for some.

Game 74, Gainst the Braves, make up for that 0-4 loss
So the Yankees won this one. Much to talk about.
Joba gets into trouble but not to much, gives up a home run in the fifth. The Yankees bounce back in the sixth after Gardner gets called off at first but was really back safely. The Yankees get 3 with a Cervilli home run and a 2 run single by Rodriguez with two outs. 3-1 after 6. Swisher gets a home run in the seventh to make it 4-1. After Joba gives up 1 more in the seventh, he is taken out for Coke, who gives up 1 on a sacrifice fly. 4-3. But it's ok because the Yankees are awake now.
Interesting play in the eighth. Cano up, bases loaded after a Damon single, Teixeira single, and Rodriguez intentional walk. Cano hits a ground ball, Damon out at home, but the throw from home to first hits Cano in the back. So only one out in the play with Teixeira scoring from second after the mix up. Nick Swisher also hits a ground ball but scores Rodriguez from third.
In the bottom of the eighth Bruney relaces Coke and gives up a run to bring in Rivera. Sweet deal, Rivera gets a strike out to end the inning. In the ninth, after a ground out, Cabrera doubles and goes to third on a wild pitch, but gets called out at home after trying to score on a Jeter ground ball. So two outs, Jeter steals to get to second, Damon hits him home with a single, Teixeira hits him home with a double, Rodriguez walked, Cano walked and Rivera comes up to bat! Basews loaded Rivera batting, second time in his career batting. He gets a hit, but it's caught to end the inning, but it was a solid fly ball. Rivera later ends the game with three straight strike outs.
Joba gets the win, 4-2, and pitched 6.1 innings, gave up 7 hits but only 2 earned runs with zero walks and 5 strike outs. Much better with no walks. Damon was 3-5 scoreing 2 runs with an RBI. Teixeira goes 2-4 scoring 1 run with an RBI. Rivera gets the 4 out save, number 498, with 4 strike outs.

Game 71, Gainst the Marlins, in Florida
Burnette pitches tonight. Alex Rodriguez shall sit out tonight again.
In the second Burnette gives up a home run. 0-1. Then in the sixth, after a walk and an error by Damon in the field, the Marlins get another run. 0-2. In the seventh the Yankees get one after a Posada gets on out of fielders choice, moves over to third on a Cano single, then scores on a Swisher single. 1-2, Final.
Burnette pitched 6.1 innings, gave up just 1 earned run, only 5 hits with 3 walks, all in the sixth, and 8 strike outs. That should have been a win, buddy, that is some mighty fine pitching. Teixeira, Cano, Swisher, Matsui, and Burnett were the only Yankees to get hits. Great.

Game 70, Gainst the Marlins, In Florida
Jeter is back, but Rodriguez is sitting out with fatigue. Left side in field switch I guess.
Well the Yankees get off to a good start on the very first pitch. Jeter hits a ground rule double on the first pitch. Teixeira single moves him over to third and Posada's single scores him. Lets see if they can hold the early lead. 1-0. In the second, Cano singles, moves to second on a pop out by Cabrera. Cano is scored on a double by Berroa, playing for Rodriguez, and Berroa is scored thanks to a double by Pettitte, ya, Pettitte! Jeter singles after that to move Pettitte to third, and Damon singles to score him. In the third inning Melky Cabrera hit a home run. But in the bottom, the Marlins get a home run themselves. 5-1. And that will be the final.
Pettitte, one of his best starts of the season, went for 7 innings, gave up 1 run on only 3 hits, with 0 strike outs, and 7 strike outs! Great start for him. All of the Yankees got at least 1 hit. Damon and Teixeira went 2-5 all 4 singles. Jeter and Posada went 2-4.

Game 64, Subway Seires, Game 1
Sorry about not posting this week. I had no good words for Tuesday's game, still bad things to say about Wednesday's game, and more bad things about another blown game last night. Soo, against the Mets.
Cano homers in the second to be the first run of the game. In the third with bases loaded, Joba walks 1 and hits another batter to allow 2 runs. But the Yankees get them back in the bottom Teixeira homer while Garnder was on. 2-3. Won't hold the lead long, in the fifth, a double, walk, double and home run scores 4 for the Mets. The Yankees only get 1 back in the bottom with a Jeter home run. 6-4. But in the bottom of the sixth the Yankees do a lot more damage. With a Cano single, Posada walk, and a Matsui homer, the Yankees retake the lead 6-7. Wow Sheffield is mean. In the seventh, he doubles and scores on a single to tie up the score. 7-7. The Yankees give up the tie in the next inning with a walk and a double. 8-7. The game won't be decided till a most embarrassing play in the bottom of the ninth.
We all know the scenerio. Bottom of the ninth, runners on, two out. Tonights hero is Alex Rodriguez with a pop up. Thats right, a pop up was the game winning hit. Jeter singles, Teixeira intentionally walked and Rodriguez comes up in the ninth with 2 on and 2 out. He hits a pop up to Mets second baseman Luis Castillo. Castillo DROPS THE BALL, and with 2 out, nothing is holding Jeter and Teixeira to their bases. They're on their horses, both round third and score during the confusion of the missed catch! Yankees win 8-9!
Joba has had worse and better starts. This one goes with 4 innings pitched, 1 hit, 2 earned runs, 5 WALKS!, and 3 strike outs. Those 5 walks were the cause of the earned runs. Rivera does not get a save but he does get a Win.
Jeter went 2-5, scoreing 2 runs with an RBI. Teixeira went 1-3, scoreing 2 runs with 2 RBIs and 2 walks. Cano was 2-4 scoring 2 runs with 1 RBI.
The loss down in the labels is to catch up with my count, having skipped 3 posts.
Cano homers in the second to be the first run of the game. In the third with bases loaded, Joba walks 1 and hits another batter to allow 2 runs. But the Yankees get them back in the bottom Teixeira homer while Garnder was on. 2-3. Won't hold the lead long, in the fifth, a double, walk, double and home run scores 4 for the Mets. The Yankees only get 1 back in the bottom with a Jeter home run. 6-4. But in the bottom of the sixth the Yankees do a lot more damage.

Game 60, Gainst the Rays, Determine the Winner of this Cut Shot Series
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.
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.

Game 58, Gainst the Rays, finally
Sabathia pitches tonight against David Price for the Rays. Should have been yesterdays game but no one can help rain in an open stadium. Oh well, Red Sox lost so back it first. Hold it now.
Speaking of the game yesterday, I looked ahead at the schedule and found that the Yankees have a 3 game series against the Rays at home from September 7th to the 9th. Both teams have an off day on the 10th so I'm betting thats when they'll make up last nights game.
The first pitch in the bottom of the second inning brings home the first run. Alex Rodriguez hit his eighth home run to give the Yankees the early lead. 0-1. In the bottom of the forth Rodriguez gets on after a walk, steals second, and advances to third on a throwing error by the catcher. He later scores in the inning on a ground out by Robinson Cano. 0-2. But in the top of the fifth Zobrist, for the Rays, hits a home run. 1-2. Then a throwing error by Damon gets a Rays runner to third and scores. 2-2.
In the sixth inning Melky Cabrera doubles and advances to third on a sacrifice bunt by Cervelli. He scores on a throwing error from Price trying to pick him off of third. 2-3. In the top of the sixth Sabathia gives up a walk, a single and a home run with no outs. 5-3. In the bottom of the eighth Teixeira hits a home run, his 17th. 5-4. In that same inning Posada walks, Cano singles, and Swisher walks to bring up Cabrera. He hits a force out but scores Posada regaurdless. 5-5.
In the ninth Rivera comes in and gives up a triple and a single without an out. Then later that single scores. Phil Cokes comes in with 2 outs. He gives up a single and a Rodrigiuz error keeps the fun rolling. 9-5. In the bottom of the ninth it will be the top of the order, if they ever get there. The Yankees have struggled with this last out for the last 3 runs. All right, Crawford caught stealing, the responce...Jeter single, Damon double, Teixeira 2 run double, Rodriguez ground out, Posada fly out, and Cano fly out. Final 9-7.
Sabathia pitched 8 innings givings up 5 runs, 4 earned, off of 5 hits with 3 walks and 5 strike outs. Teixeira went 2-5 with a home run and 2 RBI double. Rodriguez went 1-3 with a home run and scoreing 2. It was a good game, except for the ninth inning pitching.

Game 56, Gainst the Rangers, Decide the Series, also, Burnett Suspended
So Wang is pitching. I will not say anything about his three starts let's see if he can redeem himself.
Well the Yankees get off to a good start. With Jeter sitting out Damon takes the first spot in the line up. After working a full count he hits a home run to right field. 0-1 early. But in the third and the fourth the Rangers get 2 each and 1 in the fifth. 5-1. In the bottom of the fifth the Yankee bats woke up. Cervelli and Pena singles and a walk to Damon loads the bases. A walk to Swisher forces 1 run in and a Teixeira 3 RBI double forces the rest in. Rodriguez also singles to score Teixeira. 5-6 Yankees on top.
In the sixth another Ranger home run ties it up, but the eighth inning home run determines the winner. Melky Cabrera hits a home run after a walk to Cano for the lead and the eventual win. Melky Magic again. Final 6-8.
Wang gives up 5 earned runs off of 7 hits with only 1 walk and 5 strike outs. He had a great start considering what his last 3. I was expecting to look at the score and seeing double digits. Anyways, Swisher went 2-3 with a walk, RBI, and scoring a run. Sweet, he may be back. Teixeira went 2-4 with 3 RBIs and scoreing a run.
Burnett was suspended today for intentionally throwing a ball at Cruz's head last night. Bull! He is suspended for 6 games, 1 start pretty much, but I think that's crap. The Ranger pitcher intentionally threw at Teixeira for some history last year and hit him.

Then the Indians get 1 more in the fifth off a double, a single and a sacrifice fly. The Yankees finally get 2 in the sixth with a single by Damon and a homer by Teixeira. Then in the eighth the Yankees get 2 more with a Jeter single, a Damon double and a Teixeira double. So far Teixeira has hit all 4 Yankee runs in. 4-4 in the ninth. But the Indians won with a single in the ninth. 4-5 final.
Phil Hughes had an all right start. He allows 4 runs off 5 hits with 1 walk and 6 strike outs. Wang takes over in the sixth. He allows 1 hit with 1 walk and 3 strike outs in 3 innings. His ERA is down to 16.07. Much better than his 32 he had just 2 games hes been in ago. Robertson gives up the game winning hit but its Cokes earned run, giving up the walk in the beginning of the inning.

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.

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 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.
