Yanks even series with Jays

Andy Pettitte pitched six strong innings giving up 2 runs on 5 hits. He walked three hitters in the first inning but fought through it and then settled down. Brett Gardner hit his first major league homerun and also had a triple. Johnny Damon and Ramiro Pena also had triples making it the first time since April 5, 2003 the Yankees have had at least 3 players hit a triple in the same game when Raul Mondesi, Alfonso Soriano and Bernie Williams did it. Alfredo Aceves pitched 2 scoreless innings, the Yankees are looking for anyone out there to get outs so maybe he will pitch more as a middle guy for multiple innings. Brian Bruney threw today and will throw off a mound again on friday, he feels good and will be activated next week which should really help the bullpen. He also shaved his head today which is an interesting look. Mark Teixeira had a big night with a couple of hits and a sac fly, he had 2 rbi's, hopefully this will get him going in the right direction. A-rod had 3 walks as he continues to come back from hip surgery. Derek Jeter probably won't play until Friday and Matsui could have pinch hit tonight but we will see about tomorrow. Chien-Ming Wang will pitch one more game in Scranton on Sunday and if that goes well he should be activated and return to the majors. The Yankees had 8 extra base hits tonight, the most they have had in a game all season. CC Sabathia will go against Brian Tallett as they go for the series win and winning roadtrip, if they can get the win and come home 4-2 they will have some momentum as they come home for a 10 game homestand where they can do some damage.
