Yankees Daily

It was about Wang, Joba, Rivera. It was about A-Rod, Melky, Abreu. What it basically was about was the Yankees winning. Chien-Ming Wang outdueled Roy Halladay as the Yankees broke the hearts of the Blue Jays and their fans. Melky hit one of those big bronx bombs. A-Rod went 2 for 3 with 1 run scored and 1 rbi. Wang went 7 innings giving up 2 earned runs on 6 hits. Joba came in the 8th and with a lot of emotion, got three outs and the ball to the SandMan, Mariano Rivera who saved the game for Wang as the Yankees win Joe Girardi’s first game as manager as a Yankee.
