07/27: Yankees win suspended game vs. Orioles 8-7
Posted by: David
The Yankees started off on Friday night by beating the Orioles, 8-7, in completion of a suspended game from June 28th. Fans will remember then when Derek Jeter hit a two run single off of Chris Ray in a driving rain storm to take the lead and the game was suspended shortly thereafter.
The Yankees could not add any more insurance runs and had to hold on dearly for the win. Mike Myers started the eighth but could register only one out before walking a batter. Rivera came in and quickly got a double play ball to end the inning.
In the ninth, Mo surrendered a run and had two runners on before he got Brandon Fahey to ground to second with Cano forcing the runner at second to end the game.
In the regularly scheduled game which starts soon, Andy Pettitte will be on the hill for the Bombers vs. Jeremy Guthrie for the Orioles.
