Raul Ibanez did it again. Just when you thought the Yankees lost a crucial Game 3, Joe Girardi made a gutsy move to pinch hit Raul Ibanez for Alex Rodriguez, which paid off. Ibanez jumped on a 1-0 pinch and belted it into the right field seats to tie the game a two. But he wasn't done. With the game still tied a two in the twelfth  Ibanez would come up again and launch a solo shot to deep right , which sent the Yankee off to a Game 3 win. 

Hiroki Kuroda started for the Yankees and he was brilliant. Kuroda allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 8 1/3 innings of work. He stuck out 3 and walked only 1 batter. Kuroda finished his night with 105 pitches thrown, in which 65 of them were for strikes. 

Kuroda made two mistakes tonight: A solo shot to Ryan Flaherty and a solo shot to Manny Machado. 

The Yankee bullpen was outstanding tonight as well. Boone Logan, Rafael Soriano, and David Robertson limited the Orioles to just 2 hits over 3 2/3 innings. 

David Robertson pitched a scoreless eleventh and twelfth inning as he picked up the win tonight. 

Down one going into the third, Derek Jeter drove in the first Yankee run with his RBI triple to center field which plated Russell Martin. 

Derek Jeter left the game in the ninth inning after an apparent leg injury. Jeter fouled a ball off of his foot during an at-bat and he is listed as day-to-day. 

The Yankees and Orioles will play Game 4 of the American League Division Series tomorrow night.

The Yankees were unable to pick up consecutive victories against the Orioles as they were defeated 3-2 on Monday.

Andy Pettitte started for the Yankees and he was solid. Pettitte allowed 3 runs on 7 hits in 7 innings of work. He struck out 5 and walked only 1 batter. Pettitte finished his outing with 98 pitches thrown, in which 64 of them were for strikes.

The Yankee offense failed to back their starter up as they were 2-for-8 with runners in scoring position and left 10 men on.

Derek Jeter and Robinson Cano drove in their only two runs of the game.

The Yankees had a bunch of missed opportunities such as bases-loaded with one out in the fourth inning. Eduado Nunez would pop-out to shortstop and then Derek Jeter would ground out to third base.

The Yankees will travel to New York and play Game 3 on Wednesday.
