For the moment the Yankees are 10 games over 500 and in second place. As I say for the moment. The youngsters came alive and through today Cervelli had 3 hits and 2 runs scored, Pena had two RBI and Gardner scored 2 runs. The bottom of the lineup was key in the victory, but they are not the star of the night.
The star of the night was AJ, he won his Fourth victory tonight all while striking out eight batters.
The Yankees starting pitchers have been amazing this year, well all with the exception of Vazquez, Hughes 3-0 1.44 ERA, AJ 4-0 1.99 ERA, Andy 3-0 2.12 ERA and CC 4-1 with a 2.14 ERA. Not even the 1998 record winning team had this great of a start from the starting pitchers.
The Captain
Jeter had another hit he is batting .315, with his double tonight he passed Donny Baseball for 3rd place in doubles in Yankees history with 443 doubles.
Robby Cano
Cano had two more hits to bring him to .376 batting avg. sprinkle a great D play and he is slowly turning into the Yankees MVP.
The Yankees are now 18-8 and are rolling not letting down or seeing ahead towards this weekend when they play Boston.
Girardi after the game said he was impressed with AJ and Cervelli.
