Yankees-Cardinals 1:15 on YES, ESPN
The Yankees return to Legends field today to take on Tony LaRussa and the St. Louis Cardinals. The 1:15 matchup will be televised on both YES and ESPN.
Randy Johnson will get the start for the Yanks, while Sidney Ponson goes for the Cards.
The Yankees got some not-so-good news yesterday from the WBC. Johnny Damon has been shutdown due to a sore left shoulder and may be removed from the star roster. Damon isn't concerned, feeling that is a short term, rather than long term, problem and that it is best to err on the side of caution. Damon's shoulder bothered him last season and he received a cortisone shot in September.
Update 2:00
Yankees lead the Cardinals, 1-0, in the bottom of the 4th. Robinson Cano broke the scoreless tie moments ago with an opposite field home run. Randy Johnson breezed through the first four innings. His best out of the spring thus far.
Update 2:45
Cardinals have jumped on top of the Yankees, 2-1, after 5 1/2. Chris Duncan's solo home run tied the game at one, and then the Cards added another off of Randy Johnson in the 5th.
Game Notes 4:45
The Cards Chris Dunca, son of Cards coach Dave Duncan and brother of the Yankees Shelley Duncan, homered off of Johnson and had the game winning hit off of Tanyon Sturtze in the eigth.
Jason Giambi returned to the lineup, going 0-2 with a sac fly and an RBI. Mariano Rivera pitched a 1-2-3 sixth innings. Mike Myers allowed an insurance run in the ninth. Johnson breezed through the first four innings, before being charged with two runs in the fifth. He allowed five hits, walked one and struck out five.
The Yankees will travel to Kissimmee tomorrow to face Houston. Andy Pettitte will be getting the start for the Astros.
