The yankees wouldn't say it, but they really needed this win, A.J. Burnett needed to step up, and he did. Here are some notes from the game...
-A.J. Burnett wasn't lights out, but he was solid and gave the Yankees just what they needed, 5.1 innings, 2 runs, 6 Ks... looks good to me.
-That double in the 9th last night may have sparked something in Mark Teixeira, he had 2 hits today including a homerun.
-Robbie Cano 2.0(2-point-oh) went 3-4 with a 2 run homerun AND a walk... how about that?
-Nick Swisher should start in right field until he proves he doesn't deserve the spot, seriously... the guy had an outstanding day, 3-5... a clutch 2 run homerun and ended the day with 5 RBIs.
-The Yankees bullpen was lights out today, 3.2 IP 0 hits 0 walks, 6 strikeouts.
-Overall, great day for the Yankees... now we get to look forward to Sidney Ponson tomorrow for the Royals...that should be funn.

Great day is right. Now let's hope Sir Sidney doesn't no-hit us!
If sidney ponson pitches decent tomorrow... i may hurt someone....
I totally agree that Swisher should get thr RF job until he shows he doesn't deserve it. Nady is overrated and not very good in my opinion.
