Yankees Pummel Padres

The Yankees welcomed the San Diego Padres to the Bronx on Tuesday night with an 8-0 pummeling featuring home runs by Alex Rodriguez and Jason Giambi, who hit 2. The Padres offense meanwhile proved no match for Andy Pettitte who pitched 7 strong innings of shutout ball...

Additional Notes:

Veras and Traber relieved Pettitte in the 8th and combined to pitch a scoreless inning...Mariano Rivera struck out the side in the 9th...

Tomorrow Darrell Rasner takes the hill...

Let's Go Yanks!!!!
