The Chicago Cubs go Inter league for Two at Yankee Stadium as last nights game was cancelled due to inclement weather. They will play two today as one is already in the Book as Japanese Hurler Masahiro Tanaka dominated Cubs Hitters all day long through eight to get the win.

The Yankees Offense was jump started in Inning One as Yanks OF Carlos Beltran who continues to swing a hit bat took Cubbies Starter Jason Hammel deep to make it 1-0 Yankees. That was ll that Yanks Starter Tanaka would need as he goes eight allowing just two hits and striking out ten with one free pass as he dominated Cubs Hitters all day long. The Yanks did tack on two more runs in the 4th and 5th to beat the Cubs 3-0.

North Siders Starter Hammel didn't pitch all that bad as he just didn't have any Run Support. He went seven allowing three runs on five hits walking three and striking out five Yankees Hitters while giving up that Solo Shot to Beltran in Inning One. The Cubs fall to 4-9 while the Yanks move to 8-6.

The 2nd of the Double-Dip will feature Cubs LHP Travis Wood vs Yankees RHP Michael "Stick-Um" Pineda....7:10pm ET scheduled start.
