After several shaky appearances, CC Sabathia finally gave the Yankees a decent start to work with. He gave them six innings of four-run ball on six hits and two walks while striking out nine, but it ended up being the Yankee bats that secured the win over the Rays Monday night. It turned out to be quite the homer parade.
Things got underway in a hurry as Alex Rodriguez hit home run no. 662 in the first inning to put the Yankees ahead from the beginning. CC started off slow as he walked two and allowed a run on a Logan Forsythe double.
