Last night’s win over the Indians felt like a million bucks, but now the Yankees have to do it again. One win does not halt a skid as we learned with last Friday’s victory over the Red Sox. The Bombers need to string a few more of these things together and get on a little bit of a roll as the weather warms up. Here’s the lineup that will face left-hander Scott Kazmir…
- CF Ichiro Suzuki
- SS Jayson Nix
- 1B Mark Teixeira
- DH Robinson Cano
- LF Vernon Wells
- 3B Kevin Youkilis
- 2B David Adams
- RF Lyle Overbay
- C Chris Stewart
And on the mound is the former Hazelwood West High School Wildcat, right-hander David Phelps. He’s coming off that disastrous five-run, one-out start against the Mets.
The weather is lovely in New York, so there won’t be any trouble getting in a full nine innings tonight. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05pm ET and can be seen on YES locally and MLB Network nationally. Enjoy.
Injury Update: Eduardo Nunez (setback) tried to swing a bat today and suffered another setback. He’s headed for various tests and won’t be back anytime soon.
