Andy Pettite went six plus of solid work before Alfedro Aceves finished the job. Mark Teixiera hit the ball hard and seems to be getting close to be on track after two soild hits. Johnny Damon countinues to be hot adding a triple in the second inning outburst. The Yankees can head back to New York with a winning road trip with a win tonight.

They have won 3 in a row, improve to 9-6 and now hit the road for Boston. Melky Cabrera with a 2 run homer in the bottom of the 14 inning gave the Yankees the win.

Sabathia struggled throughout pitching 6.1 innings and only 2 so , 7 runs , 6 earned runs. The bullpen really did there jobs today, especially Jose Veras who tossed three scoreless innings for the win.
