I know teams in any sport struggle at some point in a season. The New York Yankees needs to wake up. The offense needs to wake up especially in runners in scoring position. The pitching has been ok, but it can do better. The Yankees are lucky their still above .500 and are only 2 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays. I guess its better to struggle early in the season than mid-season or late in the season.

New York Yankees 10- Tampa Bay Rays 0

There was really nothing you can say about this game except for C.C. Sabathia and defense. C.C. Sabathia flirted with a no hitter into the 8th inning. He went 7 2/3 innings of no hit ball until Kelly Shoppach hit a line drive to left. Great job by C.C. Sabathia, he was in control the whole time. Sabathia also had help from his defense. Mark Teixeria with a diving catch. Alex Rodriguez with numerous plays by diving, jumping, long throws, etc.

Mark Teixeria finally came through with 3 hits. Wow!!!

Who cares about the offense today. It was all about C.C. Sabathia.

Some way to kick off the 15th season of MLB on FOX with a flirted no hitter and some great defensive play. Who cares how long a baseball game goes as long as the game has some dramatic exciting plays.

New York Yankees 3 Tampa Bay Rays 9- Last Night Game

I'll make this nice and short.

Javier Vazquez awful start in his second stint as a Yankee. Offense shut down by David Price.

In my opionion, Javier Vazquez will have a decent season and will prove he can pitch in the American League with pressure.

See told you its nice and short. Nothing really good to say about that game.

Yankees 3 Red Sox 1

Yankees take 2 out of 3 at Fenway Park. Pitching dominated this series finale. Andy Pettite pitched 6 great innings in his first start of 2010. Pettite gave up only one run. Nothing more you can say about that.

Chan Ho Park redeemed himself with 3 shutout innings in relief. Great job by Park especially against the Red Sox which is not an easy thing to do in relief.

Nick Swisher finally the Yankees on board with a game tying single in the 7th inning. Good heads up for Jorge Posada to go back to the plate and touch it after he missed it to avoid a tag from Victor Martinez in which he never caught the ball.

Curtis Granderson welcome to the Yankees. Granderson with a huge solo shot in the 10th inning to give the Yankees the lead. His next true test is Yankee Stadium.

Mark Teixeria added an RBI to the lead, but still no hits. He'll turn it around very soon.

Next up is Javier Vazquez against Tampa Bay Rays. Hopefully he'll  have a better stint with Yankees than that dreadful 2004 year. This time around everyone knows he can be a dominating pitcher. I still don't like the trade to give up Melky Cabrera for Javier Vazquez. Melky Cabrera was the best as a Yankee, hopefully he will back soon.

New York Yankees 6- Boston Red Sox 4

Everyone by now should know that there is no easy win when it comes the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry. This game was no easy win for the Yankees. It took an 8th inning baseloaded walk by Nick Johnson to take the lead for good and Robinson Cano 9th inning solo home run gave the Yankees insurance. It was sloppy game defensively with 3 errors, but a win is a win. The big error that hurt was Marco Scutaro error in the 8th inning which would've ended the inning with the game still tied, but no give the Yankees an extra out and they will take advantage which they did. In the 9th inning, Mariano Rivera seal the win with a save like usual.

A.J. Burnett first start of the season was ok. He allowed 3 runs in 5 innings. He walked only one and struck out five, but he threw a lot of pitches. Only batter that hurt him the most was Victor Martinez. This was good start between Burnett and Posada. As the season progresses, I see it getting better. If it doesn't, well, Fransisco Cervilli is there waiting. Well, then again any pitcher for the Yankees works well with Cervilli because they like his attitude and the way he calls a game.

Joba Chamberlain with 2 big outs in his 8th inning relief work. This is the Joba the Yankees want as the 8th inning set up man. He just dominated Adrian Beltre and J.D. Drew by striking out both of them. Joba needs to keep that up to have that role for the season.

How many wins can Alfredo Aceves take away from starters? Aceves always does his job with long relief work. 2 innings of work and allow no hits.

Robinson Cano can really do some damage in that 5 spot if he keeps hitting the way he does in the first two games. 2 RBIs in the game with home run. Cano is too good of hitter to be in the bottom of the order.

Mark Teixeria off to his usual slow start with no hits, but did have an RBI. Don't be surprise and he'll get things going soon. No worries.
