Maybe it’s just me, but that road trip seemed to last forever. I dunno, it was only nine games, yet it felt much longer. Whatever. The important thing is that the Yankees are once again back home in the Bronx, starting a three-game series against the Twins tonight. They’ve dominated Minnesota over the years and it would excellent if that continued this weekend. It would be nice to see the Yankees get on something of an extended roll, win seven of nine or nine of 12, something like that.
Here is the Twins lineup — ex-Yankee Eduardo Nunez is starting … at DH! — and here is the Yankees lineup:
- LF Brett Gardner
- SS Derek Jeter
- CF Jacoby Ellsbury
- 1B Mark Teixeira
- DH Brian McCann
- 2B Brian Roberts
- RF Ichiro Suzuki
- 3B Yangervis Solarte
- C John Ryan Murphy
LHP Vidal Nuno
It is cloudy and cool in New York right now, and there is some rain in the forecast later tonight. Nothing too heavy. Seems like they’ll be able to play through it. Either that or there will be a slight delay. First pitch is scheduled for a little after 7pm ET and you can watch on YES. Enjoy the game.
