Yankees lose to the White Sox 7-6
The Yankees lost to the Chicago White Sox by a score of 7-6 and lost the game in the bottom of the 9th. Phil Hughes started for the Yankees and it looked as though he would redeem himself for past game failures but the long rain delay ended his night. Hughes pitched 2 innings and gave up no runs on 1 hit. Ross Ohlendorf followed Hughes and did terrible. He gave up 5 earned runs on 5 hits in 2 innings of work. Latroy Hawkins came in and pitched the 5th and 6th inning and gave up 1 earned run. Kyle Farnsworth pitched a scoreless 7th on 1 hit. Joba came in the 8th and pitched well but lost the game in the 9th. Joba gave up 1 earned run on 2 hits in 1.1 innings. Joba wasn’t throwing enough fastballs and relied on his breaking ball just a little too much imo. The hitting stars for the Yankees were Bobby Abreu, Jason Giambi and Melky Cabrera. Abreu went 2 for 5 with 1 run scored and 2 rbi’s. Giambi went 2 for 4 with 2 runs scored and Cabrera went 2 for 3 with 2 runs scored and 2 rbi’s along with a home run.

Tough loss for Joba
April 25th, 2008 at 8:26 AM
I wanted to see Hughes pitch longer.
April 25th, 2008 at 8:41 AM
Me too.
April 25th, 2008 at 8:42 AM
Yankees are better than this.
April 25th, 2008 at 8:43 AM
The Yankees will win the weekend series, I’ll tell you that much.
April 25th, 2008 at 8:46 AM
Joba is still great
April 25th, 2008 at 8:49 AM
This game ended late and I didn’t get to watch the whole thing and I’m glad I didn’t.
April 25th, 2008 at 8:50 AM
Ross Ohlendorf bit the bullet.
April 25th, 2008 at 9:17 AM
I’m not sure Ross Ohlendorf will stick around
April 25th, 2008 at 9:17 AM
Ohlendorf lost the game.
April 25th, 2008 at 1:26 PM
Ohlendorf should not be sent down. He’s been great for us, think about the whole season, not just last night.
April 25th, 2008 at 3:55 PM
He did let up an earned run almost every game. He needs time like Hughes.
