Curtis "Take It Back" Granderson robs Nolan Reimold of a home run!


Brian Roberts still showing that he wants to be in contention for the Gold Glove, with a gorgeous turn on the double play!

New York squeezes out victory over Baltimore.

Tonight at Yankee Stadium the Yankees were able to put enough runs on the board to beat the Orioles, 4-2 the final. Andy Pettitte gave up 1 run and 4 hits over 6 and a third innings of work, and that was good enough for him to record his 5th win of the season, and 5th in a row.

Giving the offense a mild boost was Brett Gardner, who went 2-for-3 on the day.

The Yankees travel to Boston for the first game of a 7-game road swing, as Phil Hughes (1-0, 1.47) gets the nod against Clay Buchholz (1-2, 3.95) under the lights at Fenway Park tomorrow.

Adrian Beltre hopes to add to his 10-game hitting streak.
