The Yankees will try to bounce back from Tuesday's disappointing loss with Freddy Garcia making his New York debut Wednesday night.
Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira is off to a red-hot start for the first time in New York. He joined Boomer & Carton on Wednesday morning to talk about it.
For years, being a Yankees minor leaguer was like being a Broadway understudy: You tried to keep busy, waited a lot, and hoped something happened to the guy blocking your path. But nowadays, things are different.
CC Sabathia and the Yankees were in complete command for seven innings, until Rafael Soriano and the rest of the bullpen threw all that hard work away.
Joe Mauer hit a go-ahead single in the 10th inning and Minnesota broke through in the Bronx, rallying past the New York Yankees 5-4 on Tuesday night to overcome a dominant outing by CC Sabathia.
Injured reliever Pedro Feliciano got his say on the Yankees vs. Mets bickering. What hurt, the Yankees' situational left-hander offered Monday, was what the Mets said about him.
Roy Halladay has been so dominant the last few years, he will certainly achieve the 300-win milestone, right? Wrong.
It may be premature to call him Ivan "Super" Nova, but the youngster showed grit, heart and lots of guts in the Yankees' 4-3 Monday night win over the Minnesota Twins.
Alex Rodriguez and Jorge Posada both hit a two-run homer, rookie Ivan Nova kept New York ahead and the Yankees made it another tough visit for Minnesota, beating the Twins 4-3 Monday night.
Before Opening Day, most Yankees fans were worried about A.J. Burnett, Ivan Nova or Freddy Garcia being the weak link in the Yankees' rotation. Add Phil Hughes to the list.
Regular season or postseason, the Yankees have consistently dominated the Twins. In steps Ivan Nova, eager to put his stamp on the series.
After three games Mark Teixeira is still on pace for 162 home runs. I'm betting against it, but a good start takes some weight off his notoriously slow-starting shoulders for a little while.
Jorge Posada smashed a pair of two-run homers, Mark Teixeira connected for the third straight game and Robinson Cano hit his first of the season for New York, which was trying for its first 3-0 start since 2003.
A.J. Burnett took a steady first step as he aims to bounce back from a wobbly season and Mark Teixeira hit his second three-run homer in two games, sending the New York Yankees to a 10-6 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday.
Feliciano, on the disabled list with a strained left rotator cuff, has made 344 relief appearances since 2007, a major league record for a four-year stretch. He led the majors in appearances each of the last three seasons, including a career-high 92 outings in 2010.
