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.
