Game recap

Sabathia was dominant today: but apparently, a 2-hit, 11 strikeout start wasn't enough to get the win. The Yankees got on the board in the 2nd with a Homer by Swisher and then followed with a RBI single by A-Rod. Dempster went 5 and gave up 6 hits and 2 runs. Sabathia was dominant until the 8th, when he gave up a walk and a hit by pitch: Rafael Soriano came in and allowed back-to-back RBI single to Soto and Alfonso Soriano. The Cubs then won the the game in the 10th with a RBI single by Colvin.

It was quite a thriller today as both teams battled until the end. The Yanks managed to prevail thanks to a couple of clutch homers. The Reds got the lead thanks to a RBI double by Votto.

In the 8th inning, Jeter got hit no.3000 of his career: the Yankees then loaded the bases and Swisher cleared them with a Grand slam home-run, giving the Bombers a 5-2 lead. But the game wasn't over yet: a RBI double by Bruce and back-to-back sac flies by Gomes and Phillips tied the game at 5.
