The Yankees first hit did not come until the forth inning, when they had gone through the first three innings, one, two, three, and were losing 3-0. Jeter doubles with Gardner already out, so it was like they had started the game all over with. Teixeira hit a single to score Jeter.
Nothing interesting happened again until the seventh when Cano hit a double then Matsui hit a single to score Cano. Then Posada hits a home run, which was reviewed for about 10 minutes. I was scared, I thought the umps were going to call it a double. Anyways, 3-4 Yankees on top.
In the eighth inning, after 2 outs, Swisher doubles, then Cano is intentionally walked, then Matsui walks. When Ransom got up to bat I almost changed the channel because he had already gone 0-3. But he came through this time, hitting a double, scoreing 3 RBIs. I was amazed, never again will I doubt a player. Final score, 3-7 Yankees.
Burnett has a shaky start pitching 6.1 innings, giving 3 earned runs, on 4 hits with 7 walks. Unfortunately Burnett left the game before the Yankees got the lead back so he does not get the win.
Tomorrows game is the start of the last series in this endless game rotation. The Yankees host the Athletics at New Yankee Stadium for a 3 game series. Pettitte takes on Eveland for the Athletics. Tomorrow is game 13 of 15 in a row.
