April 16th-18th
Game 1, Att: 49,188
The way the Yankees started off the 1st it looked like it was going to be a long night, Jeter hit his 1st home run of the year and Rodriguez hit his 4th of the year, but that was it for the Yankees. Saltalamachhia got the fight back started in the 2nd with his 2nd home run of the year then we added a few runs in the 4th and the 6th to wrap up the game.
Game 2, Att: 48,821
Once again another close game that ended in our favor. Davis got the ball rolling in the 1st with 2 on as he hit his 1st home run since 2008, but we just couldn't pull away from the Yankees as they kept in contact. Swisher got his 1st of the year in the 9th to make it a 1 run game, but Strop held his nerve to take us to the win.
Game 3, Att: 48,775
The key to this one for us was to get Joba out of the game early and we did, so in 2 starts this year Chamberlain has lasted 4 and 1/3 innings. By the time he was pulled we were 5 runs to the good although it wasn't all Joba's fault as Cano committed 2 errors to help us out. In the 2nd with 1 on Byrd hit his 1st home run of the year and in the 3rd with 1 on Davis got his 2nd of the year. Feliz once again pitched well he got into a little trouble in the 8th but no harm was done, as we swept the Yankees.
