Yankees Hit Hard

Game 4 of the ALCS was pretty much over from the start. Yankees ace pitcher C.C. Sabathia was awesome, as he went 8 innings, gave up 5 hits, 1 run, and had 5 strikeouts. But the Yankees also put this game away early with their bats. Robinson Cano would hit into a fields choice to give the Yankees a early 1-0 lead in the 4th inning. Later in the 4th Melky Cabrera would hit a single and 2 runs would score to give the Yanks 3-0 lead. In the top of the 5th the man who has been red hot through out the postseason Alex Rodriguez hit a 2 run home run to make it a 5-0 game. Rodriguez's home run made it his 5th home run this postseason as he the most dangerous batter for the Yankees.

By the end of the night the Yankees would crush the Angels. The Angels only got 1 run. The final score ended up being 10-1 all YANKEES! So the Angels in the outfield i guess will come up short as if it looks like they might be done, but don't forget teams have came back in the postseason before. Like the 2004 Red Soxs were down 3-0 against the Yankees and came back and won 4 straight and won the 2004 World Series. So never count a team out in till its over for good. I think if you look at this Angels team they have had a great season. They started off the season rough losing close friend starting pitcher Nick Adenhart who died in a car accident killed by a drunk driver. "Just making the postseason is an honor cause you always have that chance to go to the World Series" said Angels outfielder Tori Hunter. Game 5 of the ALCS will be Thursday night at 7:57 on Fox. The Yankees look to their right hander AJ Burnett to win Game 5 and head back to New York for the World Series. The Angels give the start to John Lackey as he will try to slow down these red hot Yankee batters and at least give his team a chance to stay alive. Yankees - Angels Game 5 of the ALCS.
