CMW - The Ultimate Pitching Machine
10:08 PM EDT Friday, April 11 2008
The Yankees got a big win in the first of 3 against the Sox tonight in large part due to the pitching performance of Chien-Ming Wang. If Abreu had caught the ball that went just over his glove in the bullpen for a homerun, we would be talking about his no-hitter. He actually gave up a lot of fly balls, but pitching a complete game is great considering the Yankees are in a stretch of playing 20 games in 20 days with 11 of the last 13 being on the raod. Although they left a lot of runners on base, the Yankees offense seems to be starting to click. Giambi's homerun should get him going and as soon as Cano starts hitting and they get Jeter back, they should start putting up some crooked numbers. The Yankees are probably looking at a loss tomorrow with Mussina going against Beckett, so hopefully they can take the series on Sunday with Hughes going up against Dice-K.
