It was a pitching duel that lived up to its hype:
Defending Cy Young Award Winner C.C. Sabathia vs. Yankees ace Chien-Ming Wang.
Wang struck out 9, went 7 dominate innings, after a shaky 1st, Melky Cabrera hit a solo shot, and Joba Chamberlain and Mariano Rivera were perfect to close things out.
Wang is now 5-0! He missed last April, yet finished with 19 wins last year. One can only imagine how many wins he would have had last year.
By the way, the combination of Wang-Joba-Mo has been invincible this year. When Wang’s sinker is working, the opposition is SUNK. And congrats to Mariano Rivera, who is now 7/7 in saves, and hasn’t walked anyone yet, not to mention he is sporting an ERA of 0.00.
EAT IT AND WEEP, critics and Cashman!

After last night game my opinios is that some of the player are not giving the extra mile. I saw Alex Rodriguez lost in space, that rolling was hitted for a normal double play that could end that inning. Mark Texeira is swinging to the air, has not concentration at the plate. Bret Gardner need to use the surprise bunt more often. Our Pitchers (Joba Chamberlain) need to be more agressive and or intimidating the batters. So those millionaires are not playing the best baseball. If they does not change their minds, we will be strugling this Season.
