Alex Rios can't believe that A-Rod hit a home run into Monument Park!


Mark Teixeira had to stretch all the way out to make a nice catch at first!


Yankees win at home to seize 1-0 series lead.

The Yankees whipped the White Sox 10-3 last night before a crowd of 52,325 excited fans at Yankee Stadium. Leading the way offensively was Francisco Cervelli, who had 3 RBI and 3 hits in 4 at-bats. Andy Pettitte threw 5 and a third innings of work, allowing 3 runs and 4 hits, but it was good enough for his 4th straight victory and 4th of the season. Joe Girardi discussed his team's performance, he said,"Gavin Floyd's a tough right nobody likes to face - unless it's our hitters, because we beat him today"

The next game of the series is this afternoon, with Phil Hughes (1-0, 1.46) going for the Yankees and John Danks (2-2, 5.11) scheduled to start for the White Sox.
