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.
