Yanks back on winning track

The New York Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays by the score of 4-2. A.J. Burnett pitched 7 strong innings giving up 2 runs on 6 hits with 2 walks and 7 strikeouts. The interesting part of this game was that Phil Coke started the eighth getting Adam Lind out and then Phil Hughes finished out the inning by giving up a single then getting two weak groundouts. Brian Bruney was nowhere in sight and Joe Girardi said once he gets him going again he will be the 8th inning guy. Brian Bruney said he doesn't care and doesn't know why he has to answer all these questions. The offense was pretty stagnant with a solo homerun by Robinson Cano and A-rod, the other runs were scored on a bases loaded walk and a passed ball. Derek Jeter was 2-3 with a walk, Johnny Damon, Big Tex, Hideki Matsui and Francisco Cervelli all had a hit each. The Yankees have a tough task tomorrow with Chien-Ming Wang facing Roy Halladay. The Yankees will try and make it 2 in a row and 9 of 10 overall.
