Can Teixeira And The Yankees Break Out The Brooms Against The Royals [PREVIEW]
The Yankees continue to hit for power instead of play small ball but hey whatever works right? Mark Teixeira hit his 14th round tripper of the year last night in the Yankees 5 - 1 win over the Kansas City Royals.
Meanwhile the guy we thought was the biggest question mark in the Yankees starting rotation, Adam Warren continues to improve. Warren threw 88 pitches through six and a third innings earning his third win on the season.
Tonight the Yankees defacto ace Michael Pineda takes the mound as the Yankees look to earn a three game sweep over the Royals. Opposing Pineda is Chris Young. Young has been amazing this year 4 - 0 record 0.78 ERA. So runs could be tought to come by today for the Yankees.
Kansas City Royals:
Chris Young (4-0 , 0.78 ERA)
