AJ Burnett goes for victory No. 5 in the afternoon when the Yankees wrap up a series of four with the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park.
Burnett caught in April against Toronto on Saturday, but not as strong as it has allowed four runs and nine hits in six innings. Still and all, right-hander, who last year produced the worst statistical season ever by Yankees starter, has completed the first month of 4-1 and 3.93 earned run average.
"I'm not happy at the moment. I know I can do better," said Burnett. "I'll be the best. It's just a matter of work between the two [Start] and stay humble and not get caught by it."
Burnett first win of the season was against the Tigers and is 4-1 lifetime against them, despite an ERA of 7.07 in seven starts.
Yankees could use a good start today Burnett if they intend to recover a fraction of this series. After ending a sequence of seven defeats on Tuesday in Detroit is twice on Wednesday, as Max Scherzer continued his excellent start to the season with eight innings without a goal in 4-0 win.
Scherzer (5-0) had a season high with nine strikeouts allowing only four hits in the beginning of the quality of the Tigers, while Magglio Ordonez hit a two-run homer and Alex Brennan Boesch Ávila, each having a pair of hits in the victory. . "It was really good," said Tigers manager Jim Leyland of Scherzer. "He was very aggressive and uses the strike zone. The most important thing is that he went after them."
Mark Teixeira was double the Yankees, who have not lost three in a row all season and has not lost a series since the beginning of April with Boston. Freddy Garcia (1-2) gets 10 hits and four in seven innings, while Fanning eight.
"It seemed to fall much earlier," New York manager Joe Girardi said of the Tigers Hurler '. "He threw the slider to change, and when he was behind the fall and shut down to us."
New York, Derek Jeter, who singled in the 0250 season, left the game in the eighth inning with an apparent hip injury. Jeter, however, does not seem too concerned after the game, but is doubtful for today's final.
On the way to the hill this afternoon for the Tigers right-hander Rick Porcello, who is 1-2 with a 4.25 ERA. Porcello has not received a decision on Saturday in Cleveland, where he gave up two runs and seven hits in seven innings of a 3-2 defeat his team.
