New York Yankees lose to the Toronto Blue Jays 10-6

The New York Yankees were defeated by the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday afternoon.  The

game took place at Steinbrenner Field and the final score was 10-6.  Chris Leroux started the game

on a day when the Yankees named Michael Pineda their fifth starter.  The Yankees used a whole

bunch of pitchers to get through the game.  Derek Jeter had a hit and drew a walk, Carlos Beltran

had two hits and two RBI and Kelly Johnson had a hit and a couple of RBI. 

Leroux pitched three innings giving up five hits and two runs.  Matt Daley retired the only batter that he faced, Fred Lewis pitched 2/3 of an inning giving up two hits and two runs with a walk and Preston Claiborne didn't record an out and gave up four hits and six runs with a walk.  Claiborne got charged with the loss and then even worse got optioned to the minor leagues.  Jim Miller gave up a hit in a scoreless inning, Dellin Betances pitched a perfect inning with a strikeout and Danny Burawa pitched an inning giving up a hit and two walks.  Yoshinori Tateyama pitched a scoreless inning giving up a hit and striking out one. 

Brett Gardner drew two walks, Jeter had a hit and drew a walk and Scott Sizemore had a hit.  Beltran had two hits and two RBI, Alfonso Soriano had a hit and an RBI and Johnson had a hit and two RBI.  Yangervis Solarte had a hit, Brian Roberts had a hit and Adonis Garcia had a hit.  Dean Anna had a hit, an RBI and drew a walk.  Anna, Beltran and Garcia each hit a double.  The Yankees were 5-12 with runners in scoring position and left seven men on base. 

The Yankees will travel to Bradenton to take on the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday afternoon.  CC Sabathia will make his final start in a tuneup before the season opener next Tuesday night in Houston.
