YANKEES 3
ROCKIES 4



Thursday Night in Colorado, the Yankees lost their 3rd straight to the Rockies, 4-3. Roger Clemens didn’t pitch too well, and the Yanks offense could not score in the easiest ballpark to score runs.


Clemens ran out of gas after just 4 1/3 innings while allowing 4 runs on seven hits. He walked one and struck out six. Clemens also gave up 2 long balls in the game.


The Yankees managed just five runs over the 27 innings in the series, which is horrible considering this ballpark gives up the most runs in baseball. Derek Jeter extended his hitting streak to 15 games, and Hideki Matsui belted a homerun.


The Yanks dropped back down to .500, and will head into a weekend series in San Francisco to face the Giants. Kei Igawa will make his first start since his return from the minors, and will face Matt Cain.



GAME NOTES:
CLEMENS: 4.1 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 6 SO
MATSUI: 1-4, HR, 2 RBI
POSADA: 2-4
CANO: 2-4
