Bombers Come From Behind in Fort Myers to Defeat Twins

NYY4                                        2MIN

 

Exciting day for a Yankee fan. Mostly because Mark Teixeira hit his first home run as a New York Yankee off of Joe Nathan, the Twins talented closer. Todd Linden also hit a solo shot to tie the game up at 2 runs a piece. Francisco Cervelli knocked in the go-ahead run in the 8th inning. Austin Jackson hit a home run in the 9th inning to seal the game up. On the mound, Phil Hughes got the start for the Yankees. He went 4.1 innings allowing 3 hits and gave up 1 run. Jason Johnson pitched 1.2 innings, gave up 3 hits, and gave up a run. Anthony Clagget picked up the win, his first (1-0). He walked 1 batter. David Robertson pitched 1.1 innings and struck out 3 batters. Kei Igawa got the save.
