Last night the New York Yankees needed a win, after a poor series they lost to the Tampa Bay Rays over the weekend, and that’s what they got. Jordan Montgomery pitched five innings of scoreless ball, and Luke Voit and Mike Ford powered the Yankee offense with three RBI’s apiece.
The Yankees got off to a fast start last night at Yankee Stadium. Luke Voit, with DJ LeMahieu and Aaron Hicks on base, hit a long blast into the left-field stands for the first for the 3-0 lead. For Voit, it was his fifth home run of the year with 11 runs batted in.
