Yankees score six runs in first for 8-2 win over Angels

YANKEES 8, ANGELS 2

The Yankees trumped another ace on Saturday night.

The Bombers this season already had shellacked Mariners top gun Felix Hernandez and Tigers front man David Price. Now they can add the Angels' Garrett Richards to the discard pile.

The Los Angeles righthander didn't even make it through the first inning as the Yanks pounded him for six runs in the first frame and then rolled to an 8-2 victory before 40,096 at the Stadium. Richards (5-4), who has eclipsed Jered Weaver this season as the Angels' big arm, looked very small as he recorded only two outs.
