News and Notes (Courtesy of MLB.com):
- Shortstop Derek Jeter turned 36 on Saturday, but the Dodgers did little to make sure the New York captain would have a flawless celebration. Besides laying a victory on the Yankees, Dodgers pitchers limited Jeter during chances to play the hero, striking out the shortstop three times and stranding six men on base with the birthday boy up to bat.
- The Yankees are now 10-7 in Interleague Play, while the Dodgers bumped their record to 4-10.
The game will take place at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California. It’s slated to start at 8:00PM ET. The game is being televised on ESPN. The game can also be heard on the radio on WCBS 880. En1oy the game. Go Yankees!

I started watching the game and I saw Andy wasn’t pitching his game. I know that they have their ups and downs but it angers me when they aren’t being normal unhittable self. I changed it back at the 7th inning bc it tends to be the Yankees best inning. Which wasn’t it was the 9th. I said to my brother that Robinson Canó needed to hit a HR bc he hadn’t hit one in awhile and the I look at the TV and BAM. HOMERUNRobbie truly deserves to be the American League MVP. He has really stepped up his game. He should be the clean-up hitter because he produces more than A-Rod
GO YANKEES
Do you remember back in 2006 when we had the 5 game bashing vs the Redsox in fenway…There was the 2nd game of the day/night doubleheader. We came back against the sox’s pen. It seems to have jumpstarted the season to takeover mode. This game had the same feeling to it. Let’s see if we can build upon this.
