Pirates 12, Yankees 5: Darrell Rasner didn't have it -- again -- and the Yankees lost to the Pirates for the first time since the 1960 World Series. Of course, the teams had only played each other six times since. Bill Mazeroski hit that infamous home run. The Yankees have no choice but to stick with Rasner, their No. 4 starter, but the righty needs to limit the home runs. He allowed two on Tuesday. Some early double plays -- one by Derek Jeter, one by Bobby Abreu -- cost the Yankees early chances against Tom Gorzelanny. LaTroy Hawkins continued to ask for his release struggle by allowing four runs in 2 2/3 innings of relief.

It was part of a 3-for-3 night for Abreu that ended with him only a double short of the cycle. Hideki Matsui continued his good hitting with two hits and two RBI’s.
