Yankees beat the Reds 4-1
The New York Yankees won easily over the Cincinnati Reds by a score of 4-1. Starting for the Yankees was Andy Pettitte and he pitched 6 scoreless innings giving up 4 hits for the win. Replacing Pettitte to start the 7th inning was Edwar Ramirez and he pitched a perfect inning. Following Ramirez to start the 8th inning was Kyle Farnsworthless and he gave up 1 earned run on 2 hits in .2 of an inning before quitting like a punk. The SandMan, Mariano Mo them down Rivera entered the 8th inning and pitched 1.1 scoreless innings giving up 2 hits for the save.
Winner: Pettitte (8-5)
Loser: Cueto (5-8)
Save: Rivera (21)
The hitting stars of game for the Yankees worth mentioning were short stop Derek Jeter, first baseman Jason Giambino Giambi and Jorge Posada. Jeter went 1 for 3 with 1 run scored. Giambi went 3 for 3 with 2 runs scored and 2 BIG rbi’s. Posada went 2 for 4 with 1 rbi.
The Disgraceful Player of the game was the phony baloney Kyle Farnsworthless. He faked an injury because he didn’t want to keep stinking it up. He’s not a real man. He grabbed his crotch about a billion times like a freak and then pretended he was injured. That’s not only a disgrace, but a nightmare.

I’m happy the Yankees didn’t get swept.

Great pitching by Mariano Rivera.
June 22nd, 2008 at 5:54 PM
Mariano will never get old.
June 22nd, 2008 at 6:06 PM
Great win. We couldn’t of gotten swept. THAT would of been a nightmare.
June 22nd, 2008 at 6:24 PM
Mariano is the god of all closers. Farnsworth is better this year but he might of lost some confidence.
June 22nd, 2008 at 6:25 PM
Talk about never getting old, Giambino! never gets old.
June 22nd, 2008 at 9:12 PM
Yankees are back!
June 22nd, 2008 at 9:12 PM
The amazing thing to me is that Jorge Posada is still one of the best hitting catchers in the league.
June 22nd, 2008 at 9:13 PM
I can’t believe Giambi stole a base!
June 22nd, 2008 at 9:14 PM
If the Yankees don’t win it this year, the Red Sox better not.

Joba should be starting versus the Mets!
