He did give up 2 runs after after Evan Longoria single to left. But was able to pitch out of trouble in the 7th. The Yankees quickly got the the lead back in the top of 8th. Gardner doubles, moved to 3rd on Jeters single, Gardner scored on Teixiera's Sac fly. Gardner added a ground rule RBI double in the 8th along with Derek Jeter hitting a 3 run homer to put it away.
