Tigers Go Moose Hunting
The Detroit Tigers made Mike Mussina's trip to Lakeland, Florida a most unpleasant one. Mussina coming off of a 5 inning, 8-strikeout performance, got jumped on immediately, allowing 4 first inning runs. Things got worse in the third, when Dmitri Young blasted a 2-run home run, and Brandon Inge and Alexis Gomez hit back-to-back solo shots. Magglio Ordonez finished things off with a line-drive 2-run home run in the fifth.
Mussina went from his best outing to his worst. In four innings pitched he allowed 10 runs on 12 hits. Non-roster invitee Dusty Bergman was charged with 3 earned runs, and Ron Villone allowed a final pair in the eighth inning, as the Tigers lashed out 19 hits.
The Yankees scattered 8 hits off of starter Jeremy Bonderman and 3 relievers. Miguel Cairo blasted a solo home run and Derek Jeter delivered an RBI single. Jeter, Johnny Damon, and Andy Phillips had 2 hits each.
The Yankees have a rare off day tomorrow, before hosting the Boston Red Sox in a televised primetime matchup.
