The Yanks win a great one

What a great come from behind win from the Yankees. I don't want to pour sour milk on this but the Yankees have to stop relying on the homerun hit a little with runners in scoring position. I will know be positive. Brett Gardner his last couple of games is getting it going which is great to see, its good to see him and Melky not pout or sulk when they weren't playing. They just kept working hard and when they get a chance they make the most out of it. Brett Gardner is so fast he can slip rounding the base and still get a standup triple. I love the inside the parker really got the fans fired up. A-rod had 4 walks, he hit the ball well yesterday and the day before had 3 walks so he seems to be getting there. I am happy Big Tex got a big hit in the ninth and showed some emotion there with Gomez. I hope his wrist is ok and also love Joe Girardi going after Gardenhire, I thought he was going to deck him. Johnny Damon getting thrown out showing some emotion was good also, the Yankees need to show more of this. This game hopefully was a game that can really bring them together and hopefully Yankee Stadium will continue to be a homefield advantage and the crowd will be like it was in the Old Stadium. Tonight was the first time they really got into a game and it was great to see. Phil Hughes pitched ok but not great and I am sure he will be back in AAA when Wang gets back next week at some point. I would think Hughes gets one more start on Wednesday since Wang is pitching on Sunday. Edwar Ramirez and Jose Veras pitched well in the eighth and ninth to give the Yankees a chance. Joba will pitch tomorrow and it will be interesting to see if he sends Carlos Gomez a message at all and if this gets worse over the next 3 games.
