Game 86, Gainst the Twins, Lets keep it going...

The Yankees get it started right with 1 run scored in the first and 2 in the second. Jeter singles to start of the game, Teixeira moves him to third with a single and Matsui hits him home with a single as well. In the second, Cano doubled to start off the second inning, Gardner singles right after him, moves Cano to third, and a sacrifice fly by Cervelli scores Cano. Then a single by Damon moves Gardner to third and a single by Teixeira scores Gardner. A home run in the bottom of the inning by Michael Cuddyer gets 1 for the Twins. 3-1.

Cervelli singled to start off the forth, Jeter walks right behind him, Damon walks behind him, Rodriguez scores Cervelli from third on a sacrifice fly (over the fence sac fly, should have been grand slam sac fly), Matsui walks to load the bases again, and Swisher walks, with two out to score an RBI. 5-1.

Big inning in the sixth. Teixeira singles, Rodriguez walks, Swisher walks with two out. Two out, bases loaded, same situation as the forth. Anyways, Cano singles, scores Teixeira and Rodriguez, moves Swisher to third. Garnder triples to score Swisher and Cano. Cervelli doubles to score Gardner. Wow, why can't we have hits like that all the time with 2 outs? 5 runs score with two outs in the inning, 8 out of 10 so far. 10-1 after six. After taking Sabathia out in the eighth, Brett Tomko gives up a run in the inning, just 1. 10-2 Final.

Sabathia pitched 7 innings, gave up 1 earned run off of 3 hits with 1 walk and 3 strike outs. It seemed he didn't have the right pitch to get batters out at home, but get them out in the field. With only 3 strike outs, the team backed him up with 8 ground outs and 10 fly outs.

Teixeira went 4-6 with 4 singles with 1 run and 1 RBI. Cano went 2-5 with a double, 2 runs, and 2 RBIs. Gardner went 3-5 with a triple, 2 runs, and 2 RBIs. Cervelli, for Posada, went 2-4 with a double, 1 run, and 2 RBIs.

Roy Halladay for sale? Yankees, Get him before the Red Sox do!!!! Come on, Pettitte's gonna retire soon, Wang may need more help, Joba isn't putting up the right numbers...

Burnett pitches tomorrow, 8:10 at the Metrodome. Interesting note, Alfredo Aceves will pitch for Wang on Thursday. Interesting, lets see how that goes...

Game 36, Gainst the Blue Jays

Sabathia tries to out due his complete game. Pitches against Tallet for the 1st place Blue Jays.

The Yankees get 1 in the first after a Damon double and a walk to Teixeira, Matsui, and Swisher. So the RBI goes to Swisher. The Blue Jays get 1 in the forth and fifth to make it 1-2.

Gardner walks and scores after a Cervelli single and a Jeter single. Matsui gets the final run in the eighth with a home run. 3-2 final score.

Jeter 1-5, Damon 1-5, Teixeira 1-4, Alex Rodriquez 0-5, Matsui 1-3, Swisher 0-2, Cano 1-4, Gardner 0-2 and Ninth on the line up, Francisco Cervelli 2-4. The best of the game is ninth in the line up. I am amazed the Yankees won today. 1 had a good game. Close one I guess.

Sabathia went 8 innings, gave up 5 hits, 2 runs, and 4 walks with 5 strike outs. He had a very strong outing and it was just strong enough. Rivera gets save number 7 for the season. Sweet.

The Loss in the Tags is for my count. Today was a win.
