Godzilla on the Run

Hideki Matsui gave a nice clinic on base running in the top of the eighth against Tampa Bay. With Alex Rodriguez on second and none out, Matsui picked up his second single of the day, a hard line drive to right. A-Rod could only go to third on the hit. With one out, Cano launched a ball to the warning track in left that scored Alex to tie the game, but Hideki tagged up and moved to second as the throw was off line. He then came around on a Phillips single as he got a great jump. The throw was cut off near home, allowing Phillips to go to second. After two walks, he scores on an infield hit and the Yankees take a 7-5 lead.
