The New York Yankees defeated the Texas Rangers 12-3 tonight. A.J. Burnett pitched 7 innings giving up 3 runs, 8 hits, 1 walk and 8 strikeouts. Brett Tomko pitched a scoreless eighth and Jose Veras finished it with a scoreless ninth. The only real blemish was the Yankees errorless streak is over at 18 games. Jorge Posada made a throwing error to second. The offense was great though todya.
Jorge Posda had a three hit game including a almost upper deck 3 run homerun. Hideki Matsui also had a homerun. Derek Jeter had 3 hits and a walk, Johnny Damon had a hit, rbi and 2 walks. Mark Teixeira was hit by a pitch twice and after the second one had a hard takeout slide at second that really seemed to fire up the team. A-rod had a rbi and a walk, Robbie Cano had 2 hits and a rbi. Melky Cabrera and Brett Gardner each had a hit and a walk. The Yankees are at 10 games over for the first time this season and remain in first place. Andy Pettitte will get the start tomorrow against a undefeated Scott Feldman.
