Last night on Lou Gehrig Day, the New York Yankees not only celebrated the career of their greatest first baseman, but they celebrated a back-to-back win over their nemesis Tampa Bay Rays, leaving open the opportunity to take the four-game series. The final score was 4-3.
Montgomery pitches well in the win
Jordan Montgomery may not have had his best stuff working last night, but he pitched into the seventh inning, using 99 pitches, giving up three runs; only one was earned. He also struck out six Rays hitters. He also got 8 ground ball outs.
