The ten-game winning streak came to an end last night but the quick turn around means the Yankees have a chance to start a new streak this afternoon. Phil Hughes has to battle both the Braves and the scorching Bronx heat in the rubber game of this three-game set, which is no easy assignment. Here’s the starting nine…
DH Derek Jeter
CF Curtis Granderson
3B Alex Rodriguez
2B Robinson Cano
RF Nick Swisher
LF Raul Ibanez
1B Eric Chavez
C Russell Martin
SS Jayson Nix
RHP Phil Hughes
Today’s game starts at 1:05pm ET and can be seen on YES locally and MLB Network nationally. Enjoy.
Mark Teixeira Update: Teixeira is a little sore after taking that Jason Heyward line drive to his heel yesterday, but he’s expected to be good to go on Friday.
