Yankees Comeback Falls Short In Loss to Jays

by @ 5:08 pm. Filed under 2009 Yankees

Those pesky Blue Jays knocked the Yankees down a notch today in a game where Andy Pettitte was roughed up.  The Yankees were down as much as 7-1 but they scored five unanswered runs to make it tight but they couldn’t quite pull this one out.

Pettitte gave up six runs in six innings before yielding to the pen.  David Robertson shined out of the pen and he struck out two and he didn’t allow a hit in 1 1/3 innings.  Brian Bruney gave up the other run and that pushed his ERA up above 4.00.

Eric Hinske belted his first home run since joining the Yankees.  Nick Swisher went three for four with a double and a pair of RBIs while Robinson Cano doubled twice and scored two runs.

The loss puts the Yankees a game and a half back of the Red Sox but that should be a single game by the end of the night because they’re losing to the Athletics 5-0.  Now the Yankees hit the road.  They play three against the Twins before heading to the West Coast.
