With the first win out of the way, the Yankees can now focus on their first winning streak of 2012. Left-handed pitchers they haven’t seen before have been a bit of a bane over the years, and tonight they get the Taiwanese-born southpaw Wei-Yin Chen. The 26-year-old is anywhere from 88-94 with the fastball plus a slider and a split-changeup hybrid. He’s supposedly stingy with the walks, but he’s never faced anything like the Yankees’ lineup before. Here’s the starting nine…
SS Derek Jeter
RF Nick Swisher
2B Robinson Cano
3B Alex Rodriguez
1B Mark Teixeira
CF Curtis Granderson
DH Andruw Jones
C Russell Martin
LF Brett Gardner
RHP Freddy Garcia
Tonight’s game starts at 7:05pm ET and can be seen on My9 locally or MLB Network nationally. I can only assume it’s going to rain since the game is on My9. Enjoy.
