As the Yankees hope for the their 8th win in a row they send out the following lineup (via Peter Abraham):
SS Derek Jeter
LF Johnny Damon
1B Mark Teixeira
3B Alex Rodriguez
DH Hideki Matsui
RF Nick Swisher
2B Robinson Cano
CF Melky Cabrera
C Kevin Cash
And on the mound Phil “Phranchise” Hughes
This is a big game for Hughes with Chien-Ming Wang inevitably returning soon.
Not much news today, but you got to check this out (I found it on RAB)
On Memorial Day the Yankees and all of baseball will be wearing this hat
Ewww...
Well just like that the season is 25% over right? with 40 games out of 162 (so technically 24.69%), anyhow it went fast enough but at least things are moving in the right direction with this new 8 game winning streak and exciting wins such as the 3 straight walk-offs or the 4-straight homer games from A-Rod, or back-back-back tonite or the best part: big Tex moving his average and RBI totals back to normal.
The Yankees are hot right now!! The Yankees have a kind of a good test this weekend with the defending World Champions Philadelphia Phillies!!! The Yankees are now 23-17 on the season!!! Phil Hughes already have two wins but I don’t know what the Yankees going to do with Phil Hughes with Chien-Ming Wang in the horizon!!!
