The Bats played a daytime doubleheader today. Minor league doubleheaders only go 7 innings each, which means fewer at-bats (and fewer chances to keep a hitting streak going). But Andy kept his hitting streak alive. It's now the longest for the Bats this season.
He was 1 for 2 with two walks in the first game. (Started at 3B, batting cleanup.)
In the second game, he played 1B, and again batted cleanup. He was 1 for 3 with a double.
The Yankees are about to lose to the mighty Rays. Gotta give Tampa credit. They deserve this win. Andy Pettitte was pitching in and out of trouble all night, and eventually, the odds caught up with him.
And jeez, do the Rays have the best defensive outfielders in the league? They're catching balls that seem uncatchable. Yankees hitters are being robbed, again and again. It's like they've got a whole outfield of Bubba Crosbys.
