The New York Yankees need Ace C.C. Sabathia to come up big to avoid a 0-6 west coast trip through the Black Hole and Halo Land. They get that from C.C. as he goes eight innings allowing two runs on five hits and sending six halos back to the Bench to watch more film on that C.C. Slide Piece. The Halos Ace Jared Weaver looked anything but as he goes six innings giving up five runs on seven hits and one via the "Big Fly" off of Yanks DH Travis Hafner's Bat a 3-run Big fly at that. The Yanks go 1-5 and salvage one game out of the Trip as they move to 38-31. The Halos fall to a disappointing 30-39.

The Detroit Tiger also get the rubber game from the Twinkies in Target Field by the score of 5-2. Tiger RHP Doug Fister goes 7 2/3 allowing two runs on two hits. The Tigers get their offense from the Top of the Line Up Card with Austin Jackson and Torii Hunter combining for four hits, three runs, and five ribbies as Hunter goes Yard on one of his hits a two-run job. Detroit moves to 38-29 and up 4 1/2 on the Tribe in the AL Central. The Twins 30-36 fall off the pace as they are in 4th place in the Central 7 1/2 games back.

The Atlanta Braves after that "Gem" thrown by Giagntes RHP Madison Bumgarner on Friday take the last two games including Sunday's Rubber Match 3-0. Braves RHP Julio Teheran goes six innings and gives up seven hits and no runs while striking out eight. Giants RHP Tim Lincecum went six innings allowing three runs on six hits. Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman was the hitting star and going 3 for 4 with a run batted in. Braves move to 41-28 atop the NL East and the Gigantes to 35-33 in the NL West.
