The Yankees won a game. Not only that, they scored 5 runs. Crazy I know, but these are the Yankees we've been waiting for. Let's start with the pitching and then we'll get to the dramatic part:
Phil Hughes started and went 5.2 innings. He gave up 4 hits and 3 runs. He was not outstanding, but you know what? None of our starters have been lately... except for the recent appearance by Ivan Nova and of course... Hiroki Kuroda. One thing Hughes did do was keep us in the game. Boone Logan came in and gave up an earned run on a homer. But that was the end of the run scoring for the Rangers. The Yankees hitting went like this:
In the 3rd inning, Austin Romine doubled in Melky Mesa. Shortly after that, Ichiro Suzuki knocked in Romine. In the 4th, Brent Lillibridge reached on a fielders choice, and with that, Vernon Wells scored. Then nothing... until the 9th.
In the 9th, Eduardo Nunez tripled and with it knocked in Vernon Wells to tie the game. Then .... Holy Lillibridge... That's right...
Final: Yankees 5 - Rangers 4
Maybe this is a sign of things to come... I'm happy, you should be happy... go buy one of our shirts... I know, shameless plug... that's how I roll!
