Last Night's Action: Yanks Can't Sweep
Andy Pettitte once again fell victim to his home ballpark, but that wasn't the only story in the Yankees' 7-6 loss to the Blue Jays. The bats almost bailed Pettitte out, making a furious comeback from a 7-1 deficit, but a sweep of the four-game series was not to be. Derek Jeter got thrown out stealing third with no one out in the first inning, but replays showed he avoided the tag. He and manager Joe Girardi took exception when third-base umpire Marty Foster said it didn't matter. No matter the call, that wasn't a good decision by Jeter, and it wasn't a good outing by Pettitte, who doesn't look comfortable in the Bronx. The Yankees finish the first half with a trip to Minnesota and then Anaheim to face the Angels.
