Chicago White Sox vs New York Yankees
Post Game Recap
Final Score: White Sox 5 Yankees 6
The New York Yankees were able to
complete the sweep at home of the Chicago White Sox, despite almost
blowing their lead in the late innings. The win moves the Yankees to
(75-64), which is 2.5 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays for the second
Wild Card spot in the American League.
C.C Sabathia was able to put together a
pretty good start together on Wednesday night, as he picked up his
13th win of the season. The first inning was to good for
Sabathia, but he kept the damage at a minimum, as only one run scored
on Avisail Garcia double that scored Gordon Beckham. Sabathia went
into the eighth inning, but after two singles allowed he was pulled
for David Robertson, who allowed both of Sabathia's runners to score,
which hurt his final line. Sabathia finished going 7.1 innings
allowing three runs on five hits and four walks.
