A Dozen Scoreless Innings
The Yankees pitching staff did not allow an earned run last night. After three unearned runs came across in the first inning, the Bronx hurlers combined for twelve straight scoreless innings against the Athletics. Rasner allowed four hits in the first inning, but just one over his next four and one third. The bullpen walked four, but the A's could just scrape out two hits to go with those.
The Yankees offense wasn't great last night, either, but Alex Rodriguez hit his seventh home run to get the team on the board, and Jason Giambi launched a shot to centerfield in the 13th for the game winning run.
Both pens are depleted right now as two extra-inning games in a row took their toll. Both teams will be looking for long outings from Andy Pettitte and Rich Harden this afternoon.

The four Yankee errors were a bit much. Two from Jeter, for four on the year.
Stop the bleeding!
