... to score. Those three runs were all they would score off of Lee in six innings of work. But, considering that he entered the game with a 3.04 ERA, that is pretty good. They had 9 hits and 2 walks off of him. Pettitte was great through five, holding the Indians scoreless on 5 hits and 4 walks. He allowed a single and a walk to start the 6th and was removed for Alfredo Aceves, who allowed just one run to score in that inning. Pettitte was dealing with stiffness in his lower back, according to Peter Abraham . Aceves pitched great, allowing just 1 hit in 3 innings of work. ...
Cashman to B-Jobbers: FORGET IT!
The Yankee Universe —
... Cashman is right. For Joba, his velocity is tied to his ability to get everything in sync. Joba has had trouble finding his rhythm early on in games and sending him to the bullpen won’t solve that. That will only make every inning the 1st inning for him, and do you know what he’s done in the 1st inning this year?
Here it is, we could get Kei Igawa to produce like this:
