Mark Teixeira is showing you why his defense means a lot to the Yankees as he is able to pick out the bad throw!


The Grandy Man just stands and watches his Grand Slam fly high and away!


Jorge juiced one here for his 1500 career-hit!


New York defeats visiting Texas to win series 2-1.

The Yankees had a somewhat easy time of it against the Rangers yesterday, winning 10-4 in front of a crowd of 47,300 at Yankee Stadium. Curtis Granderson collected 2 hits -- including a home run -- and 4 RBI in 4 at-bats to spur the offense. Andy Pettitte collected the win, working 6 and a third innings and giving up 4 runs and 7 hits. Jorge Posada achieved a personal milestone in the game, picking up career-hit number 1500. The ball was a home run so Jorge will not be able to this one in his trophy case.

The Yankees and Athletics will begin a series tomorrow in Oakland, as Javier Vazquez (0-1 8.18) and Trevor Cahill (0-1, 16.50) will face under the lights at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.
