04/06: Pettitte's Return a Loss for the Yankees
Posted by: Patrick
Andy Pettitte, in his first start since returning to the Yankees, lasted only 4 innings, allowing 6 hits, 3 walks, 4 runs and 2 earned runs while striking out 2. As you can probably tell from the 2 unearned errors, we had some... defensive issues, commiting 3 errors (2 by Jeter, 1 by Minky).
The bullpen combined to allow 3 ER in the final 5 innings. Proctor pitched 1 and 1/3, allowing 2 of those 5, Myers pitched 2/3, Bruney pitched 1 (striking out 2), Vizcaino pitched 1 (allowing the other ER) and Farnsworth finished it off with an inning of his own.
Devil Rays starter Jae Seo lasted 6 and 1/3, allowing 5 earned runs. After a Derek Jeter single to start the 7th, Seo was relieved by Ruddy Lugo. A Hideki Matsui single brought in Jeter and Abreu to tie the game at 6. But, that would be all for the Yankees offense.
When Vizcaino relieved Bruney in the 8th, he allowed 2 hits and then threw a wild pitch, allowing the Rays to score the go ahead run.
The Yankees had 14 hits and 3 walks. Cano, as the lead off man, went 3 for 5 with 1 run and 1 RBI. Jeter was 2 for 5 with 1 run and 1 RBI. Matsui went 2 for 5 with a run and 2 RBI. Posada was 3 for 5 with a run. Mientkiewicz was 2 for 3 with a run and a walk. Giambi (0 for 3, 1 BB) and Cabrera (0 for 4) went hitless.
Tonight at 7 Eastern, we'll get Adam Loewen of the Orioles against Moose.
