  Hiroki Kuroda #18 Of The New York Yankees Reacts

The Yankees' lost Wednesday Night's game by a score of 6-5. Hiroki Kuroda struggled early on by allowing 4 runs in the 1st inning. The Yankees' quickly came back with 3 of their own in the bottom half. Unfortunately, they weren't able to tie the score and the Twins added some more runs on in the 3rd and 5th inning. Justin Morneau homered twice to lead the offense for the Twins. Kuroda allowed 6 runs, on 10 hits, in 4 1/3 innings pitched. He struck out 4 and walked 0. 

Derek Jeter stayed red hot for the Yankees'. He collected 3 hits in 5 at bats. He slugged his 4th home run of the season in the 9th inning. 

The Yankees' and Twins will conclude this 4 game series tomorrow when Phil Hughes looks to pick up his first win against Anthony Swarzak and the Twins.
