Joba, bats come to life

It seemed like same old, same old, and the Yanks were getting no-hit through 5 innings vs the Braves. It looked like Joba Chamberlain was going to be a tough-luck loser. Then in the 6th Joe Girardi got ejected when he yelled at the umpires when the blew a Brett Gardner pickoff.

The newspapers are saying Girardi’s ejection sparked the team.

Fransisco Cervelli got his 1st HR, and things got rolling into a real game. Nick Swisher and Johnny Damon did great, and the Braves made some errors and miscues.

Although A-Rod gets all the press for his 2-RBI single, the truth is he barely got his bat on the ball- it was the cheapest hit. He’s far from breaking out of his lethargy, but the result was good.

Brian Bruney kinda blew the 8th, but Mariano Rivera- on 8 days rest- got 4 K. In a humourous moment he also batted and made contact.

Final score: Yankees 8, Braves 4
