So Sabathia takes the ball against the Nationals, his first start after holding the Red Sox to 1 run in 7 innings, then blowing it in the eighth. So lets get your sixth win!
The Yankees score 1 in the second. Cabrera hit a sacrifice fly to score Cano from third. In the third inning the Yankees score another Cano singles to score Damon from third. The Yankees fall back when Sabathia gives up a 3 run homer to Anderson Hernandez in the fifth. 3-2. But in the seventh, after a Damon single, Teixeira double, and Cano double, the Yankees retake the lead 3-4. In the eighth Pena hits in an insurance run, playing for Jeter who left with ankle stiffness, with a single to score Gardner, running for Matsui. Final 3-5.
Sabathia pitched 7.2 innings, allowing 3 runs off of 6 hits with 2 strike outs and 1 walk (last at bat he pitched in the eighth inning). He was taken out after that walk and replace by Brian Bruney for the 1 last at bat of the eighth. Rivera got his 15th save of the season. 3 more till 500.
Cano was 4-4 scoring a run with 2 RBIs. He had half the hits of the game.
The Yankees are back to 10 over .500. Tomorrow Wang (0-4) hopes to get his ERA down. He needs all the help he can get to get his first win. No offence but I think Wang should be in the Pen and Hughes should be the 5th starter. Wang pitched 3 scoreless innings some time ago in the seventh, eighth of a game and then the next game. He seems much better later than earlier.

Game 53, Final game gainst the Indians
Joba has his start in this series against the Indians.
The Yankees strike first in this game 4 with a walk to Gardner, a single from Jeter and a RBI double play from Swisher in the third. But the Indians break Jobas no hitter in the forth with a home run. 1-1 Not a scoring play but just amazing. Joba gets himself in a bit of trouble in the fifth with runners on first and second. A bunt attemp off the bat of Kelly Shoppach pops up to half way between third and the mound. Chamberlain leaps off the mound catches the ball on a dive and throws to second for the double play. For the third out, Posada catches Jamey Carroll stealing. Bad inning turned into a Yankee fire starter. Lets see how they handle it.
With a walk to Matsui, pinch hitting for Berroa, a walk to Gardner, and a walk to Jeter the Yankees score 2 with a Swisher single in the seventh. I feel alot better about the lineup now rather than last inning with three walks with no outs and no runs in. That was horrible. 3-1 now. Teixeira is intentionally walked to load the bases again. And this time Rodriguez hits a single to score Jeter and Swisher. Teixeira out at second over running the bases. So I guess that worked out for the Indians. In that inning, five walks and 2 singles turns into 4 runs for the Yankees. 5-1.
In the bottom of the frame the Indians get 1 with a ground out RBI. 5-2 final.
Joba Chamberlain pitches 8 innings giving up 2 runs off of 4 hits with 2 walks and 5 strike outs. Rivera pitched in the ninth getting his eleventh save of the year. 493 all time. The Yankees took 11 walks this game. Jeter was 2-3 with 2 walks scoring 1 run. Swisher was 2-4 with 2 RBIs, scoring a run, and a walk. Rodriguez was 1-4 with 2 RBIs, but 2 strike outs. Ouch. Could have been a better game but I'll take the win without a comeback from the Indians.
The end of this game marks the end of the Indians Yankees games for the season. After 8 games the record is 5-3 in favor of the Yankees. Done with 1, 13 AL teams to finish up with.
The Yankees now have the record for errorless games with 18 straight. Sweet, they are now headed home where earlier this year they won an entire 6 game homestand. Lets get some more, please.
Tomorrow the Yankees play the Rangers at home at 7:05. AJ Burnett starts against Padilla.
Wednesday Pettitte, with the Yankees best starting record (5-1) starts against Feldman at 7:05.
Thursday Sabathia takes on McCarthy at 1:05 to end the series.

Game 50, Gainst the Indains, in Cleveland
Pettitte pitches tonight against Cliff Lee. Lets get another win.
In the second the Yankees get 2 with many singles. Swisher walks, Gardner singles, Jeter singles (to score Swisher), Damon singles, and Teixeira grounds out to score Gardner. In the third Cano singles, then Posada singles, then Matsui grounds out to advance the runners and Swisher goes out on a sacrifice fly. The Indians get 1 in the sixth. Final 3-1.
Pettitte pitched 5 innings gave up 1 earned run on 6 hits with 5 walks and 1 strike out. Not his strongest start but I'll take it. Rivera got another save. That is 492 I believe. Jeter went 2-5 with an RBI. Swisher went 1-2 with an RBI and scoreing a run. Posada, first day back, went 2-3 sweet. Good game. 2 consecutive.

Game 47, Gainst the Ranger, Hughes day
Phil Hughes starts tonight. trying to improve his 2-2 record.
Well the Yankees start their bats early tonight. Jeter doubles, Damon singles, Teixeira doubles, and Rodriguez singles to start off the game. 4 straight hits in the first gives them a 2-0 lead early.
In the third Damon doubles to start off the inning and Teixeira walks to bring up Rodriguez again. He doubles to bring in Damon. Then Cano triples to bring in the 2 on base. Swisher grounds out to bring in Cano. Alex Rodriguez singles in the fifth and Cabrera singles to get him to third base and Swisher hits him home for another run. 7-0.
In the sixth inning Jeter walks, Damon walks and Teixeira singles to score Jeter. Rodriguez doubles to score Damon and Teixeira. Teixeira hit by a pitch to start off the eighth. Roriguez singles, Cano singles and Nick Swisher is the one to score the RBI. He goes out with a sacrifice fly to score Teixeira. 11-0 after eight.
Phil hughes taken out in the ninth. Won't finish his shut out win. Yikes, I'd have left him in, get his confidence through the roof. Anyways, Alfredo Aceves gives up the only run to the Rangers of the game. A home run to Nelson Cruz in the ninth. Final 11-1.
Phil Hughes pitched 8 innings gave up 0 runs off of 3 hits with only 1 walk and 6 strike outs. I am pretty sure this game was the best start by any starter for the Yankees. I guess i am kind of glad Wang had 2 disgusting games. Hughes has 3 wins now.
Rodriguez went 5-5 with 2 doubles and 3 singles. He scored 2 of the runs and had 4 RBIs. Cash also had a good game going 3-5 with 3 singles. 11 runs scored by the Yankees off of no home runs. 0 home runs for the Yankees and 11 runs. I am impressed.
