Angels 11, Yankees 4: Dan Giese did his part, but the bullpen where he used to reside didn't help him out. He hung around six innings, long enough for him to leave with his team leading, 2-1, after Alex Rodriguez and Jason Giambi hit back-to-back homers in the top of his last inning of work. The Yankees then extended that lead to 3-1 but saw Edwar Ramirez and the rest of the bullpen implode. Yes, the Yankees have been playing the Angels for a good portion of this recent stretch of poor play, but they still are killing themselves. And how are things going to get better with Ian Kennedy, Giese (he will be exposed) and Sidney Ponson still drawing three starts out of five? Phil Hughes can't come back soon enough.

Johnny Damon continued his hot hitting with two more hits and scored two runs. Bobby Abreu and Jason Giambi both hit home runs and Alex Rodriguez doubled home two runs in the 7th to give the Yankees a comfortable lead. Dan Giese earned his first career win with 2-2/3 innings of shutout relief and Mariano needed only seven pitches to nail down his 16th save of the season.
