Yanks win a laugher

The New York Yankees defeated the Chicago White Sox this afternoon by the score of 10-0. Sergio Mitre got the start and pitched brilliantly giving up 1 hit and no runs in 6 1/3 innings. He left the game with one out in the 7th after getting hit in the forearm, there was swelling and him and Joe Girardi are not sure if he will make his next start but they will see what happens in the next couple of days. Chad Gaudin came on to pitch 2 2/3 hitless and scoreless innings. The Yankees made a couple of really nice plays defensively to help Sergio Mitre also. The offense saw Derek Jeter get 3 hits as he is just on fire and Alex Rodriguez had 2 hits and 2 rbi's. One of his hits was a solo homerun. Johnny Damon had a hit and 2 rbi's, Hideki Matsui had 2 hits and a rbi. Nick Swisher had 2 hits and a rbi and Robinson Cano had 3 hits and 2 rbi's. Jerry Hairston had a hit and 2 rbi's. Jerry Hairston started in center field and then moved to shortstop late in the game. It is great to have a guy on the team that can play every position in the field other then pitcher and catcher although he has been the emergency catcher for the last couple of days. Jorge Posada is good to go for tomorrow according to Joe Girardi in the postgame. Joba Chamberlain will start tomorrow and go I guess 5 innings at most. Alfredo Aceves will be the caddy along with Dave Robertson. The Yankees will try and sweep the White Sox making up for losing 3 out of 4 to them in Chicago earlier in the year.
