Pitching: CC Sabathia LHP vs. Brad Bergesen RHP
Notes: The yankees have won 6 games in a row and are now 1 game behind the division leading Red Sox....comeon... the Blue Jays arent for real...and if the Rays don't get their pitching in order.... they may be back to pre 08 form.
...back later with updates from the game...
Update 7:17: i genuinely hate brian roberts.
Update 7:29: Monster homerun by A-Rod... 2-1 Yankees.
Update 8:08: looks like another strong start by Sabathia so far tonight, 4 innings 2 hits 1 run 0 walks and 3 strikeouts.
Update 8:10: how bout this chin music. ... it's off the page!
Update 8:20: Michael Kay just compared a flock of birds flying... to parallel parking... i still don't know how he did it.
Update 8:22: you can NOT walk guys like greg zaun when guys like brian roberts and adam jones soon follow... take the easy out.
Update 8:24: Dontrelle Willis is mowing down the Rangers right now... really? Dontrelle Willis?
Update 8:44: why did francisco cervelli try stealing there? i'm pretty sure derek jeter is up with no outs.
Update 8:46: ohhh Michael Kay... you tease...
Update 9:09: CC through 7 innings...1 run 3 hits 1 walk 7 strikeouts.... now that bruney is back from the DL, gotta wonder if girardi uses him in the 8th with CC's pitch count over 100 pitches.
Update 9:29: by the way.... it's 9-1 Yankees.

Game 3: Yankees vs. Orioles 4/9
Lineup:
Jeter SS
Damon LF
Teixeira 1B
Nady DH
Cano 2B
Swisher RF
Ransom 3B
Gardner CF
Molina C
Pitching: A.J. Burnett RHP vs. Alfredo Simon (See-moan) RHP
Notes:
The Yankees lost their second consecutive game to start the season, but their hitting wasn't really to blame, though Teix was miserable. 5 runs should be enough for the Yankees to win every single game this year, that is how good their rotation is. Every Yankee fan who watched the last two games will agree, the offense was not impressive...and if they pulled 5 runs out of their asses like they did the first two games, imagine what it will be when everyone's clicking.
The Yankees will be fine, it's only 2 games, Wang will bounce back, CC will bounce back, Teixeira will be a beast. A.J. Burnett does however need to stop the bleeding before ESPN and sportscenter jump all over it saying the 2009 New York Yankees are a big bust, those Red Sox nation bastards...
...back later with updates from the game...
Update 11:29: Peter Abraham over on his blog did a little research on Eiji Sawamura, if you don't know who that is... i reccomend reading this.
Update 1:38: the first pitch to Jeter is a ball...
Update 1:48: Johnny Damon just made an amazing play reaching into the stands battling fans for the ball.
Update 1:50: first strike out by a Yankee starter this year.... and it's the 3rd game of the season.... sad.... A.J. Burnett... our savior!!
Update 2:06: Sidney Ponson is pitching for the Royals tomorrow... atleast i know there is no way we go 0-4...
Update 2:28: Brian Roberts.... singled to center scoring pie. 1-0 orioles.
Update 2:37: A.J. Burnett just struck out Aubrey huff with the bases loaded... love to see that kind of emotion from a starter.
Update 2:39: Mark Teixeira just crushed a ball over the left center field fence for a homerun... 1-1 now.. YEEEEAA BABYYY!!
Update 2:42: "Cano becomes the walking man" ... yes.
Update 2:47: Nick Swisher just flyed one out to right for a homerun. 3-1 Yankees.
Update 3:00: Luke Scott just homered to center. 3-2 Yankees.
Update 3:31: Swisher just smashed one past Ty Wiggington, 4-2 Yankees are in bussiness.
Update 3:36: Huuuuge error by Bass there, 2 runs score and the Yankees are still threatening. 6-2 Yankees.
Update 3:46: Derek Jeter hit into a double play with runners on the corners and 1 out. 7-2 Yankees. going to the bottom of the 6th now.
Update 4:14: i wasn't around to watch it, but apparently Robinson Cano hit a 2 run homerun, it's now 9-2 Yankees bottom seven.
Update 4:40: Ok, Nick Swisher should start for the yankees... somehow... 5 RBIs today. 11-2 Yankees.

Opening day: Yankees vs. Orioles 4/6
Yes, it's finally here... opening day for the Yankees... here's the lineup:
Derek Jeter SS
Johnny Damon LF
Mark Teixeira 1B
Hideki Matsui DH
Jorge Posada C
Robinson Cano 2B
Xavier Nady RF
Cody Ransom 3B
Brett Gardner CF
Pitching: CC Sabathia LHP
The rain has apparently stopped at Camden yards... which is good news, back later with updates from the game.
Update 3:59: the lineups are being announced right now... and.. did anyone else get chills when Mark Teixeira got announced? i did.
Update 4:25: aaand we're underway with the first pitch to jeter being a strike!
Update 4:27: Derek Jeter just rocketed one up the middle for a single.
Update 4:34: CC Sabathia's first pitch was up and away... the velocity was down, hopefully that will get up.... and he just gave up a single to brian roberts.
Update 4:45: nice play by Ransom getting the roberts at home... as of right now, it's still 0-0, but CC is still in a jam.
Update 4:46: and the threat is over, Huff hit a rocket but right at Jeter, end of the inning.
Update 5:08: 1-0 Yankees after a sac fly by Johnny Damon, Gardner produced that run on his own.
Update 5:21: CC gave up a triple that was rocketed to right center by Adam Jones, that scored 2 runs, then Nick Markakis hit him in. 3-1 Orioles.
Update 5:35: CC really doesn't look good today, if you can't locate your fastball, you're going to have problems...and CC just hasn't located well today.
Update 5:45: Maybe that double play to end the 4th will pump CC up, top 5 now, Orioles up 3-1.
Update 6:07: apparently the double play did not pump CC up, he's still pitching miserably... 5-1 Yankees, he needs to hold them right here, or this could be a bad start to a very hyped season.
Update 6:47: i had to step out for a bit, but apparently the Yankees struck back for a few runs, it's 6-3 Orioles now.
Update 6:50: Hideki Matsui just crushed one to right center for a 2-run homerun, 6-5 Orioles.
Update 7:22: Jeter couldn't get the run in from 3rd with less than 2 outs...Damon walked, and Teixeira grounded out... it will be up to the Yanks to come back in the 9th now...
Update 7:30: well... 8-5 after Phil Coke gave up a 2 run homerun.... to Cesar Izturis?... really? wow...
Update 7:45: 10-5 ... turning off the game...
