Yankees beat Mariners in game 2, look ahead for sweep

by @ 11:37 pm. Filed under 2008 Yankees

In a game that was strangely similar to yesterday’s pitching gem by Chine-Ming Wang, Mike Mussing  also stepped up and produced for the Yankees  another  great day from the mound.   He also went 6 innings.  He also had 5 strikeouts.  He also gave up one run.  He gave up 7 scattered hits, instead of Wang’s 3.  He was relieved by a fantastic bullpen, also giving up one hit, and not allowing any runs to score.  In other words, pretty much a carbon copy of yesterday.  Nice job.

The runs came in a very similar fashion as well.  Another Yankee stepped up big in this series.  Johnny Damon had a monster day behind the plate.  He doubled twice, and hit a two-run home run in the 6th inning to take the Yankee lead to 6-1.  That was your final score. 

This is good to see some of the veterans playing so well, and seemingly injury free.  Both Damon and Mussing admit to having injury-plagued seasons last year, as older players normally do.  But the production is up from these guys, and the team tends to ride that wave. 

This is the second win in a row, and the Yankees are back to that illusive .500 mark, again, at 16-16.  Tomorrow presents an opportunity for the club to sweep the Mariners, right on the heels of being swept by Detroit.  This is baseball.
