You don't want to see Andy on the mound when you're up to bat! He's playing out of his mind!
Who said Gardy didn't have power!
Sir Lancelot rides to the rescue! C’est lui! C’est lui!
The Yankees win an AL East matchup at home, taking their win streak to 8 with a victory over the Orioles.
The Yankees demolished the Orioles 12-0 last night, winning in front of 52,325 happy fans at Yankee Stadium.
Andy Pettitte was the star on the mound, hurling 7 scoreless frames in picking up his 9th win of the season.
Going 3-for-4 and driving in 2 runs, Mark Teixeira was the catalyst offensively.
Skipper, Joe Girardi, gave some comments on his team's performance, saying,"It's hard to be on the winning end of a game like this sometimes, but not as hard as it is to be on the losing end. I'm glad my boys have put together another great streak of wins. Let's keep pushing for some history here!"
The series continues tonight with Roy Oswalt (5-3, 4.66) going for the Yankees and Jeremy Guthrie (3-4, 5.51) slated to work for the Orioles.

Due to my loss of laptop it made it extremely hard for me to continue my last season of Yankee baseball. I now have my laptop fully up and running at this point. I've been trying to play along with the real-life Yankees: So the first game I will be posting will be today's game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
The scheduled pitching match-up is C.C. Sabathia (16-7 4.37) going up against A.J. [Yes] A.J. Burnett (10-11 3.87) for the Blue Jays. I released A.J. early on in the season due to me not having faith in him anymore.
The Yankees are currently 101-39 which puts them atop the AL East with the Rays trailing in second[9.0 games back] with a record of 92-48. (Red Sox in third 90-49. L10: 8-2)
So here I go with more dynasty posts of Yankee baseball!
Aaron Hill was the player of the game. - Seen here getting ready to reek havoc on a ball.
I call this the slutty scoreboard. [It gets plenty of action]
New York toppled at home, shrinking their AL East lead to 8 and a half games over the Rays.
The Yankees lost some ground in the AL East, as the Blue Jays scored a 9-4 win at Yankee Stadium last night, Cutting New York's lead to 8 and a half games ahead of the Rays.
Eric Chavez slugged a home run and drove in 2 runs, going 2-for-4 at the plate to lead the offense.
C.C. Sabathia (16-8) got the call, but perhaps shouldn't have answered it, as he pitched only 4 and a third innings, giving up 7 runs and 8 hits, to take the loss. Joe Girardi talked about his club's performance in a post-game interview. "C.C. sucked a great deal today. Goodbye."
The two teams conclude their series this afternoon at Yankee Stadium, with Freddy not so krueger Garcia (14-7, 3.94) going for the Yankees against Clayton Richard (6-14, 4.54) and the Blue Jays.

This team is so conceited: They still play New York New York even when they lose!
Your player of the game.
Yankees suffer loss at home, as lead over Rays in AL East drops to 7 and a half games.
The Yankees suffered a 5-0 loss to the Blue Jays last night, cutting their AL East lead to 7 and a half games over the Rays.
Mark Teixeira went 2-for-4 to provide a small jolt for the offense.
Freddy Garcia (14-8) was the starter and loser, working 6 and a third inning allowing 4 runs on 6 hits in defeat. Joe Girardi gave an assessment after the team's performance, saying, "I'm lucky enough that this team has built up such a lead in the division. To have the Blue Jays come in a sweep us on our turf is quite disturbing for me to fathom. Have a good day, folks."
The Yankees start a new series in New York tomorrow night, sending Bartolo Colon (16-7, 2.67) to the mound against the Orioles and Jake Arrieta (11-12, 4.29).
