The Yankees were unable to solve the Royals in the opener of their three-game set on Monday as they were defeated 5-1. Phil Hughes started for the Yankees and he exited after four innings due to rain. The Yankees only run came off of a Lyle Overbay pinch-hit solo shot in the seventh inning.

Adam Warren came into the game to replace Hughes and he did well. Preston Claiborne followed him and he struggled a bit as he allowed two runs. The Yankees have to be a bit relieved as they didn't have to burn out their bullpen in the opener of this three-game set.

The Yankee offense was silent tonight as they scored only one run on nine hits.

The Yankees and Royals will continue this three-game set tomorrow night.
