Helping the Twins
The White Sox fall to the Yankees 5-1. Johnny Damon and Alex Rodriguez both homer, and the Yankees bullpen pitches five scoreless innings, earning a win for Brian Bruney.
Phil Hughes pitched okay, but inefficiently. He gave up one run in four innings, but took 89 pitches to get through the White Sox. At least he brought his ERA down below 8.00.
The Twins and Indians are tied at four in the seventh. Minnesota has a golden opportunity to gain back a game in the AL Central race.
