Game 76, Gainst the Mets, Subway Series Part 2

The Yankees, I think, are 0-3 in rain delayed games. This one was delayed for about 50 minutes, lets see how it goes.

The Yankees get started in the second with Sabathia's help on he mound and at the plate. It all started with a Melky lead off single in the second and advance to second on a throwing error by third baseman Wright. Pena doubled Cabrera home and Sabathia hit a single to score Pena from second. The Yankees get some help from the Mets in this inning. Damon reaches on a throwing error by shortstop Cora and scores Sabathia. Teixeira reaches on a fielding error by Evans and scores Gardner. 4 runs scores with 3 errors by the Mets, only 2 runs were earned. 4-0.

Gary Sheffield homers in the bottom of the fifth. That puts an end to Sabathias command over the Mets, he pitched a 4 inning no hitter. 4-1. In the eighth inning Gardner homers, Teixeira draws a walk and Rodriguez hits a home run with two outs on the first pitch to him. Poor unexperienced pitcher, never throw a perfect pitch right down the line to a power hitter. 7-1.

Brett Tomko replaces Sabathia in the eighth. 6 up, 6 down. ERA went down to 5.51. In the ninth inning, Pena singled, Gardner tripled to score Pena, Damon doubled to score Gardner. 9-1, Final.

Sabathia pitched 7 innings, gave up 1 run on only 3 hits. He had zero walks and 8 strike outs. Great strong start for the big man tonight. Good start to the series.

Gardner went 5-6! Great lead off night for him, 3 singles, a triple and a home run. He scored 3 times and had 2 RBIs. Rodriguez was 1-2 with a home run and three walks. Pena also had a great night, playing for the sick Jeter. He went 3-5 scoring 2 runs with 1 RBI.
