After being shutout for the 7th time this season, the look to finally put their offensive woes behind them as they begin a seven-game road trip that starts tonight in Baltimore for three games, then will head out to Minnesota for a four game set with the Twins.
Tonight's lineup, 7:05 ET @ Camden Yards:
Gardner CF
Nix SS
Cano 2B
Wells DH
Suzuki RF
Almonte LF
Stewart C
Adams 1B
Gonzalez 3B
Sabathia P
Big misunderstanding during the pregame gathering as we were all lead to believe that David Phelps, not Sabathia, was suppose to take the hill for game one of the series. When the lineup was posted, it garnered CC's name, giving the impression that Phelps had been scratched.
Pitching coach Larry Rothschild announced shorty after that Phelps was never intended to start Friday's game, and that Sabathia had always been the scheduled starter, siting that the Yankees had falsely announced the weekends projected rotation.
Either way, all is good and there's nothing to worry about, for now, in the Yankees club house that is currently preparing to face a very young and challenging Orioles lineup, that will attempt to put up some runs to support Baltimore's starting pitcher, T.J. McFarland (1-0, 4.14).
McFarland is making his first career major league start, but has appeared in 18 games as a reliever for the Orioles this season. He'll face off with Sabathia, who's sporting a 3-1 record during the month of June, while also holding a unusually high, 5.10 ERA this month.
