- Yankees 5 Toronto 1: Derek Jeter got his 2,416th hit, a RBI-single that put the Yankees ahead 1-0 and moved Jeter past Mickey Mantle on the all-time team hit list. It was Jeter’s only hit of the night, but the Yankees had plenty of offense. Johnny Damon had three hits and a RBI, Wilson Betemit had a home run and Jose Molina even chipped in with two hits.
All the hitting backed up a great effort from Mike Mussina. Mussina won his 259th career game by pitching six innings and only allowing one run. He struck out six as well. Kyle Farnsworth showed he is the best when the pressure is off, but sending the Jays down 1-2-3 in the eighth.
- Mets 5 San Francisco 3: The Mets jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first and John Maine made it stand up. Carlos Beltran had two hits and two RBI’s while Jose Reyes had three hits and his 8th home run of the season. Maine worked six innings to improve to 6-4.
