The New York Yankees were defeated
by the Anaheim Angels on Tuesday night.
The game took place at Angels Stadium in Anaheim, California and the
final score was 2-1. Ivan Nova made the
start and pitched well and Adam Warren making his first appearance out of the
bullpen for the year was great. The
Yankees offense only managed two hits.
Nova pitched 5 1/3 innings giving
up eight hits and two runs with two walks and seven strikeouts. Nova lost his first game of the season. Warren pitched 2 2/3 innings giving up a hit
and a walk with two strikeouts.
Andrew Heaney won his first game of
the season pitching seven innings and giving up two hits and a run with two
walks and seven strikeouts. Joe Smith
pitched a perfect inning and Huston Street saved his 23rd game of the season
pitching a perfect inning with a couple of strikeouts.
Brett Gardner had a hit, Mark
Teixeira had a hit, an RBI and drew a walk and Chase Headley drew a walk. Teixeira hit a homerun and the Yankees never
had a runner in scoring position and didn't leave anyone on base.
Johnny Giavotella drew a walk, Kole
Calhoun had a hit and Mike Trout had two hits.
Albert Pujols had a hit and an RBI, Erick Aybar had two hits and an RBI
and David Freese had a hit. Matt Joyce
had two hits and drew a walk, Chris Iannetta drew a walk and Joyce and Aybar
each hit a double. Pujols and Aybar each
hit a homerun. The Angels were 0-11 with
runners in scoring position and left nine men on base. Trout was caught stealing and Smith committed
an error.
In the second Teixeira hit a solo
homerun to give the Yankees a 1-0 lead.
In the sixth Pujols and Aybar hit back-to-back homeruns to give the
Angels a 2-1 lead and that would be the final score. The two teams will play the third and final
