Derek Jeter did it again with his late inning heroics, this time a solo shot to right with two outs in the bottom of the 8th giving the Yankees a 6-5 lead. Damon and Teixeira homered back to back in the third inning. Melky Cabera joined the party in the fourth inning. Robinson Cano led of the sixth with a solo shot. Joba Chamberlin struggled with command all day allowing 5 runs in 4 2/3 innings, walked 5 , striking out 4. But the bullpen was able to hold Cleveland in check the rest of the way. Mariano Rivera pitched the ninth struggled a little bit, but prevailed with the save.
The wide known problem of the Yankees high ticket prices was never more evident today, with block of seats near the field empty. But if you looked in the upper deck full, left field bleacher full, right field bleachers full. I don't think the Yankees will want to keep those seats empty or will they ?
