Yanks Start ALCS With A Win!

The Yankees defeated the Angels 4-1 Friday night in the Bronx in Game 1 of the ALCS thanks in large part to CC Sabathia's ace-like performance...

Sabathia stymied the Halos over 8 innings of work, allowing only 1 run on 4 hits while striking out 7...

A great start for the Yanks in a series that you'd expect to go six or seven...

Additional Notes:

Derek Jeter, Johnny Damon and Hideki Matsui each had 2 hits...Matsui had 2 rbi...

Mariano Rivera got the save...

Tomorrow A.J. Burnett will be on the hill, weather permitting...

Let's Go Yanks!!!!!
