Yankees win first in Chicago

by @ 11:53 pm. Filed under 2008 Yankees

On the forth game of this long road trip the Yankees find themselves in Chicago facing the White Sox.  Chien-Ming Wang was on the mound for the Yankees.  He delivered a win, just like his previous outings this year.  This took his record to a solid 4-0, and seems to have the wind at his back.  He is really crusin’ right along.  In what would have to be considered his worse outing of the year so far, he went 6 innings gave up 10 hits (scattered), 3 runs (all earned), and struck out an uncharacteristicly high, 5 batters.  All in all, a game you expect to win, by only giving up 3 runs, but not your best stuff.

There was a lot of offense in this one from the Yankees.  Giambi hit a no-man-on, no-out,  solo shot off Contreras in the second inning, to take the score to 2 for the Yankees.  They were silenced for the entire middle portion of this game on some strong pitching by the White Stockings.  But in the 7th and 8th innings they blew open the lead with some singles and walks loading the bases for Bobby Abreu, with 2 outs in the 7th inning.  Grand Slam!  4 runs score, and the Yankees are right back in the drivers seat with a 6-4 lead. 

Damon wanted in on the long ball action and rocked a 2-on, 2-out, jack in the 8th inning, giving the Yankees a large enough lead to relax in this one.  The White Sox scored a late run in the 9th inning, but not anything to be concerned about.  The Yankees win this one in the late innings.  There record is one game over .500 at 11-10.
