Tonight's game was very enjoyable to watch as a baseball purist. The game between the Blue Jays and Yankees featured two young and impressive right-handers that went head-to-head for most of the game. The Yankees scored the go-ahead run in the 8th inning when Johnny Damon bunted (it seemed he was bunting for a hit more than sacrificing) and Downs bobbled the ball near the first baseline. Derek Jeter followed that with a sacrifice bunt that he actually beat out; unfortunately the umpire "saw" differently. Bobby Abreu blooped a single that brought in Melky Cabrera.

Dustin McGowan and Phil Hughes matched each other for six innings. The "so-far" dominant Yankee tandem of Joba Chamberlain and Mariano Rivera sealed the deal for the Bombers in the eight and ninth innings.
