Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - CC Sabathia dazzled on the mound to get his
first win as a Yankee, as New York made short work of the Kansas City Royals,
6-1, in the second installment of a three-game set from Kauffman Stadium.
Sabathia (1-1) threw 7 2/3 innings of scoreless, six-hit ball while fanning
six batters for the Yankees, who won their third in a row after starting the
season with two consecutive losses. Jose Veras recorded the final four outs
and gave up the lone run.
Nick Swisher went 2-for-3 with a triple, a homer, two walks, three runs driven
in and three runs scored in the win. Jorge Posada had two doubles and drove
in three runs, while Xavier Nady had two hits. Johnny Damon scored twice in
the win. New York's first baseman Mark Teixeira did not play due to a sore
left wrist.
Tony Pena drove in the lone run for Kansas City, which dropped its second
straight game to move to 2-3 on the young season. Mark Teahen scored the run
in defeat.
Horacio Ramirez (0-1) was saddled with the loss after yielding all six runs on
eight hits in 4 1/3 innings of work.
The Yankees got on the board in the first inning. Damon had a one-out single,
and Swisher followed with a walk before Hideki Matsui lined out. Posada then
made it 2-0 with a double to right.
Derek Jeter singled to lead off the third and came around to score two batters
later as Swisher slugged a triple to right field. Matsui grounded out, but
Posada kept it going with an RBI double to left, making it 4-0.
Damon drew a one-out walk in the fifth before Swisher launched a 1-1
fastball over the fence in left to make it 6-0. Matsui followed with a double
that chased Ramirez in favor of Robinson Tejeda, who got out of the inning
without any further damage.
After a few scoreless innings, Teahen drew a leadoff walk for KC off Veras in
the ninth. Brayan Pena then flied out to Damon in left, but Mike Jacobs put
two runners in scoring position with a double. Tony Pena grounded to Robinson
Cano at second, which drove in a run to get the Royals on the board. Willie
Bloomquist followed with a groundout to end the game.
Game Notes
It was Teixeira's 29th birthday...Sabathia threw 108 pitches, 73 for
strikes...These teams split 10 meetings last season, but the Yankees are 23-8
against the Royals since the start of the 2006 campaign. New York has built an
11-4 record at Kauffman Stadium over that span.

Big East Conference odds
Work left to do: Villanova, Syracuse, DePaul, West Virginia, Providence
 Notre Dame and Louisville appear to have done enough to make the move, so we'll make them locks. The Cardinals, despite a modest RPI, are trending way up and have clinched at least a tie for third in the Big East, which should be more than enough with their pair of big road wins. Villanova got back to .500 and gets back to more solid footing. Syracuse got a very important road win and crippled a fellow contender in the process. West Virginia's fate could be in its hands Tuesday at Pitt.
Work left to do:
Villanova [18-9 (7-7), RPI: 21, SOS: 5] Pounded Rutgers to get back to .500. If Cats can get their last two (at UConn, vs. Syracuse), that should be enough with strong computer numbers and a host of wins away from The Pavilion. The Cats have beaten Texas and swept the Big 5 (never easy in Philly), but have a couple of losses to bubble teams (Xavier, Drexel), too. I still think they'll be OK, possibly even at 8-8.
Syracuse [20-8 (9-5), RPI: 53, SOS: 62] History says 10 wins will be plenty, but it might be hard for the Orange to get that last one with a final two vs. G'town, which is trying to win the league title, and at Villanova, which will be desperate for a W. The relative lack of nonconference heft and the weak computer numbers are still concerns, but the Orange have won four in a row and got a very, very big win at Providence on Saturday.
DePaul [16-12 (8-7), RPI: 54, SOS: 18] Beat Cincy and should get past South Florida to get to 9-7, but then what? They have beaten Kansas and Cal (right after the DeVon Hardin injury) earlier this season, but also have lost to Bradley and Purdue, among others. They'll likely need a couple of BE tourney wins, too, but we'll see ...
West Virginia [19-7 (8-6), RPI: 58, SOS: 125] The game at Pitt on Tuesday night could decide the Mountaineers' fate (barring a deep tournament run). They can still get to 9-7 in the Big East without it by beating Cincinnati, but the nine wins would be against UConn, Villanova, St. John's, South Florida, DePaul, Rutgers, Seton Hall twice and the Bearcats. Beating bubble foes is fine, but where's the beef? Outside of beating PG-less UCLA in nonconference play (still a top quality win), there's not a lot to fall back on (besides maybe NC State). WVU vs. Syracuse would be an interesting debate, as the teams don't play in the Big East regular season. WVU has the best win, but Cuse has played the much better schedule.
Providence [17-10 (7-7), RPI: 70, SOS: 33] The Friars likely saw their at-large hopes die at home in the four-point loss to Syracuse, barring an unexpected run to the Big East semis or more. The RPI, bad already, won't be helped by playing St. John's and South Florida in the final two league games.
