Here are the notes and lineups for tonight’s game:
– In the last two games, the Yanks have one walk and 17 strikeouts.
– Robinson Cano is up to .380 and has a 14-game hitting streak.
– Nick Swisher is struggling, going 6 for his last 35, and has two RBI in that time.
– Hideki Matsui has a seven-game hitting streak and is 11 of his last 27.
– The Yankees have scored three runs in the last 19 innings.
– The Yanks are 32-39 in April over the last three seasons.
– Steven Jackson was sent back to AAA as expected. Jorge Posada is out with a sore hamstring, which would explain him not running to first last night.
