Yankees Recap

The New York Yankees were defeated by the Boston Red Sox tonight 8-4. Wang got the start and didn't fare too well giving up 7 run and 6 hits in 1 2/3 innings. Only one of the runs was earned though. Apparently Juan Miranda made one error but looked like he misplayed a couple of balls. I know a lot of people get all worked up over this but the Yankees didn't have anyone on the long trip to Fort Myers. On the good side Brett Tomko pitched 3 1/3 innings giving up 2 hits, 0 runs with 5 strikeouts. In the spring Tomko has now pitched 10 1/3 innings giving up 2 runs with 10 ks and 1bb. It looks like he is the frontrunner for the long man spot but we will see. I don't think he can do much more to show he deserves the job. Kei Igawa pitched another scoreless inning but don't worry he won't be seen in the bronx unless a disaster happens. Cody Ransom went 1-3, Brett Gardner 0-2 with a walk. Xavier Nady was 1-3 with 2rbi, Jose Molina was 1-3 with a rbi. Shelly Duncan was 1-2 with a walk and Angel Berroa was 2-3 with a rbi. The Yankees will be on YES tomorrow at 1:15PM at home against the Astros with AJ Burnett getting the start, they have a split squad and the other half of the team will play the Pittsburgh Pirates with Phil Hughes getting the start. The Yankees also aren't too happy with Cano not saying anything about his shoulder before he left for the WBC.

    this topic. You realize so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I personally
    will need to…HaHa). You certainly put a brand new spin on a subject that's been written about for years.
