-Toronto 13 Yankees 5: Sidney Ponson showed why the Cardinals released him and Kris Wilson showed why the Royals released him. Together, the two of them gave up ten runs in four innings and the New York bats couldn’t make up the difference. A-Rod went 0-4, continuing his streak of looking clueless at the plate. Vernon Wells hit two home runs to power the Blue Jays.

-Mets 4 Reds 2: Tom Glavine struggled through 6 and 1/3 innings, but was bailed out by some excellent relief pitching from Chad Bradford and the Mets used three doubles in the tenth to beat Cincinnati. New York now comes home to face the Astros this weekend.

Jon Lieber pitched his best game as a Yankee. Lieber went seven and two-thirds innings, scattering seven hits, and allowing two earned runs (the game tying run that Heredia allowed to score was charged to Lieber). Scott Proctor, who has pitched wonderfully in the last week, retired one batter before allowing the home run to Vernon Wells.
