Game 3 at Baltimore Part 2, The Game

The Game, Burnett vs. Simon. Burnetts first game in the season with Pinstripes on.

Hit less until the third inning, Gardner is the first to get on base safely. He is stranded but in the forth Mark Teixeira gets his first home run of the season. Swishers home run in the same inning, with Cano on base, gives the Yankees a 3-1 lead.

After a Baltimore home run in the forth, Teixeira singles, followed by a Cano single, followed by a swisher single to score Teixeira. 4-2 Yankees. In the same inning, after a Ransom walk to load the bases, Gardner reaches on a throwing error and scores Cano and Swisher. 6-2 Yankees. Molina singles on a pop up to second? Anyways it scores Ransom.

Then in the seventh Cano hits a 2 run home run with Nady on base to make it 9-2. And in the ninth Swisher doubles to score Pena from third and Cano from first to make it 11-2. If it stays like this the Yankeed will have made up all the runs scored against them, 5-10, 5-7, 11-2 totals to 21-19.

Well the Yankees had a very rough start to the season but made up for it all in this game. Scoring 11 on 13 hits and allowing only 2 was a very nice game to watch, even though it was just on gameday online.

Burnett is the first starting Yankee pitcher with a Win, allowing the only 2 runs, with 6 strike outs and only 1 walk. After the 5.1 innings he was in the pullpen took care of the rest with no hits in the last 3.2 innings and a Rivera save opportunity.

Nothing like getting through five innings with less than 6 runs scored against you. Improvement for the Yankees!
