05/25: Yanks Win 12-3; Ends in Drama
Posted by: Patrick
The Yankees beat the Tigers 12-3 last night behind 6 homers (2 from A-Rod, 2 from Posada, a Sheff shot and the 1st of Cano's career) and 7 shutout innings (no walks, 6 hits, 6 K's) from Moose.
Sheffield went 2 for 5 with 2 RBI, bringing his average up to .317. With A-Rod's 2 for 2 (3 RBI) day, he's up to .318. Posada's 3 for 4 (4 RBI) puts him at a respectable .284. Bernie also added 2 hits (including a double), bringing his average up to .244. And Womack stole another base (number 15).
There was a little drama in the latter innings with A-Rod getting hit and then Q (who won Steve Lombardi over)throwing behind a batter and then hitting the batter with the next pitch. Anyone see it? I didn't. Just going on what I've read. Dimitri Young says it's not over.
