07/30: Yanks Lose to Angels 4-1
Posted by: Patrick
The Yankees wasted a good outing from Moose, losing 4-1 to the Angels. Mike went 8 full innings, allowing just 3 runs (all in the second inning) on 8 hits. Sturtze pitched the 9th, allowing an ER of his own.
The Angels staff, meanwhile, was able to hold the Yankees to 1 run on 7 hits. The lone run, a Tino Martinez homer off of starter Ervin Santana (who went 6 and 1/3), came in the 7th. Tino has 35 hits on the year. 16 (or approximately 43%) of them are home runs. Jeter was the only Yankee with 2 hits, pulling his average up to .300. We've now fallen to 2.5 games back in the division and 2.0 games back in the wild card.
Shawn Chacon (1-4, 4.09 - probably 10-7 or 9-6 if he had that with the Yankees all year!) makes his Yankee debut today against Paul Byrd (9-7, 4.10).
Good luck, Shawn. Welcome to New York.

"Not many pitchers leave Coors Field and get worse. I'm getting a good opportunity here."
