For the second time this month, the Yankees swept Seattle. Yesterday's 6-to-5 victory brought New York to the .500 mark and allowed them to jump over Baltimore in the standings. It was their 5th consecutive win but, more importantly, it was a win that was earned in the eighth inning when New York was down by 3 runs. The first win of the season that was achieved after the team had been down after the seventh inning.
"We got contributions from everyone, especially there in the last inning with walks and with timely hits," said shortstop Derek Jeter, who got the rally started by drawing a lead off walk. "We pretty much did a lot of things right."
Timely hits... it is what the team has been lacking and it is good to see the Yankees back on track.
They will begin a three game set against Baltimore today at 1:35pm.
