YANKEES 10
ORIOLES 6



Sunday Afternoon in Baltimore, the Yankees took the last game of the series, be defeating the Orioles 10-6. Chien-Ming Wang picked up his 12th win of the season, and the Yankees bats came back to life.



Yankees starter Chien-Ming Wang worked six solid innings, holding the Orioles to three runs on nine hits and inducing eight groundouts. Wang (12-5) struck out 1 and walked 4. Unfortunately, we had to see Kyle Farnsworth enter the game, and take a WILD guess as to what he did?? THATS RIGHT…gave up a Home Run. When is Torre gonna just let his dream go…and STOP pitching his boyfriend.



Offensively, the Yankees batted around in the 8th inning, and scored 5 runs to break the game open. Johnny Damon went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and four runs scored on Sunday, including an RBI double in the eigth.
Hideki Matsui hit sacrifice flies in the first and seventh innings and finished with three RBIs. The Yankees tied season highs with nine walks and eight doubles, including two each from second baseman Robinson Cano and center fielder Melky Cabrera. Alex Rodriguez still di dnot hit homerun #500.



The Yankees return home on Tuesday to face the Chicago White Sox. Mike Mussina will face Jose Contreras.
