Yanks/Indians Recap

The New York Yankees defeated the Cleveland Indians by the score of 10-5. CC Sabathia pitched 7 innings giving up 3 runs on 5 hits with 8 strikeouts. Dave Robertson pitched a 1-2-3 eighth inning and Jose Veras finished it off but gave up a couple of runs and hits in the ninth. CC had a no hitter going until the fifth when a ball went up the middle and off his hand, he struggled a little after that but got through it. I know Jose Veras has no options but he just shouldn't be on this team anymore. Hideki Matsui led the offense by going 3-5, Nick Swisher and Jorge Posada had solo homeruns. Derek Jeter had a couple of hits and so did Robinson Cano. It does seem like pretty much everyone is hitting right now. Brett Gardner was the only guy in the lineup tonight that didn't have at least a hit. The Yankees are now 2 up in the loss column over Boston and rolling along. They have Phil Hughes on the mound vs Carl Pavano. The Yankees also will try and tie a major league record tomorrow for longest streak without an error at 17 straight games.
