The Yankees were unable to snap their three-game losing streak tonight as they were defeated 5-2 by the Angels. The Yankee offense struggled again tonight and could not back up starter Andy Pettitte. Pettitte defiantly gave them a chance to win, but with the slumping offense, the losing streak increases to four games.

Andy Pettitte allowed four runs on eleven hits in seven innings of work. He struck out four and walked only one. He finished his outing with 101 pitches thrown, in which 68 of them were for strikes.

David Adams provided the offense tonight for the Yankees with his two-run single in the fourth inning.

The Yankees hope to snap their four-game losing streak tomorrow against the Angels.
