Games 40 and 41 at home, Gainst the Twins and Orioles
I went camping the last 2 days, got a nice tan, but missed an exciting game on Monday and a great inning Tuesday. Here they are:
After giving up 2 in the first the Yankees put their bats to work and go through the entire line up in the first inning. After singles by Jeter and Damon Teixeira hits them home with a 3 run homerun. Not to be outdone, Rodriguez hits 1 of his own right after Teixeira empties the bases. Cano hits a ground rule double and Cabrera hits him home with a single. Cervelli hits Cabrera home with a single. 6 runs scored in the first inning.
The Twins threaten a little bit later, scoring 1 in the forth and sixth, but Teixeira keeps the Yankees ahead with another home run in the seventh. The final score, 6-7 Yankees.
Pettitte gets the win allowing 4 runs, 12 hits, giving 1 walk and 3 strike outs. Jeter went 2-5, both hits in the first inning, Teixeira went 2-4, both hits home runs, Rodriguez went 1-3, his hit being a home run. Swisher definetly still struggling, 0-4.
Yesterdays game I wish I could have seen. Just because it looked like it was going to be close, until the seventh.
After giving up 1 run in the first, the Yankees answer back with 2. With Damon on, Rodriguez hits a home run to give the Yankees the lead, 1-2. Nothing happens till the bottom of the seventh. Swisher and Cano walk and Cabrera singles to load the bases. Cervelli reaches on a fielding error to score Swisher. Jeter doubles to score Cano, Cabrera, and Cervelli. Damon singles to score Jeter, and Teixeira hits a home run to score Damon and himself. 1-9 Final.
Sabathia pitched until the seventh inning and he left with a very comforatable lead and gets the win. He allowed 1 earned run on 3 hits giving 1 walk and 7 strike outs. Looking more and more like himself every game. Teixeira and Rodriguez went 1-3, 1-4 respectively, both hits being home runs. Swisher went 0-3, come on Swisher.

Game 39, gainst the Twins, at home
Burnett Starts tonight against the Twins in game 3 of this 4 game series.
The Twins score first in the top of the seventh with 2 runs in, but the Yankees answer back with 2 of their own. Alex Rodriguez hits a home run and Matsui doubles and scores later that inning. The winning run tonight doesn't come until the tenth when Damon hits a game winning home run.
Burnett started giving up 2 earned runs off of 6 hits, 6 walks with 7 strike outs. Yikes, 6 hits and 6 walks. In a bad game that could be the equivlent to 12 earned runs against. Anyways the bullpen took care of things after the 2 runs and no more were scored. Damon had a great game going 3-4 with the game winning home run. Many of the Yankees are still experienceing their droughts, Cano 0-2, Pena 0-3, Matsui 1-4, Rodriguez 1-3. Come on, start hitting or you won't win unless you're playing the Twins. Not many other teams will only score 2 or 3 runs against.

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.

Game 37, gainst the Twins, at Home
After giving up runs in the second, forth, forth and fifth, Jeter hits a home run in the bottom of the fifth to get the Yankees on the board. Then the Twins get a 4th run in the seventh to get a 4-1 lead. But the Yankees aren't done. Gardner hits an inside the park home run in the seventh. And then Gardner triples in the ninth and scores off a Teixeira single. Then, with bases loaded, two outs, Melky Cabrera, on the first pitch, hits a 2 run single to give the Yankees the first lead of the game and the win!
Hughes had a good start, 3 earned runs is a good start in my book, the line up should be able to win with only 3 scored against. He pitched 5 innings, gave 3 runs on 6 hits, 4 walks with only 2 strike outs. All right, so maybe it wasn't as strong as I thought.
Gardner 3-3 with 1 RBI and scoreing 2 runs. I think it is safe to say he got the Yankees back in this. Hitting an inside the park home run is something that gets everyone excited, and being in Yankee Stadium, I am sure everyone was on their feet in the ninth inning to help Cabrera after that triple and single. Teixeira was 2-4 with an RBI, Gardner in the ninth, and scored a run in the ninth as well. Rodriguez got up 5 times, struck out once, and was walked 4 times. I wonder how many times he has been walked now since hes been back..? Melky Cabrera, with the game winning single, 2-5 with 2 RBIs.

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.

Game 32, 33, Off day, Game 34, and 35
So this past weekend I was busy moving out and movie back into my house. I did not have anytime to get on my computer, and even if I did have time I couldn't because my computer was packed. Anyways, so I missed a lose, a win and another lose. So they are playing the Blue Jays now, the first place Blue Jays. Lets see how it goes.
After giving up 1 run in the first, the Yankees have a huge inning. Cabrera started it off with a double and scored with a Gardner home run. Then Pena triples (playing shortstop for Jeter) and scores off a Damon triple. Teixeira scores Damon with a double. Good inning. In the forth Damon scores after hitting a double, advanced on Swishers ground out, then scores on Teixeiras sacrifice fly. In the fifth, after giving up a run in the bottom of the forth, Cano doubles and scores on a Gardner triple. Then Gardner scores on a Cervelli single. 8-2.
And that is how it ends.
Pettitte pitched 6 all right innings. He walked 4, gave up 5 hits, 2 runs (only 1 earned), and had only 2 strike outs. Teixeira had a good game going 2-4 with a double, a single and 2 RBIs. Gardner also had a good game, going 2-3 with a home run, his first triple, and 3 RBIs.
