Colon is brilliant again

Yanks 3 White Sox 1
Bartolo Colon gave a solid pitching performance through 8 innings and secured the win through a 9th inning save from struggling Mariano Rivera. Colon looked pretty impressive today. He got into a bases loaded situation in the second inning and worked his way out of it with no damage. Colon must have drunk from the fountain of youth because he looking pretty close to his old form. He is throwing lots of strikes and hitting zones pretty much on the money.
It was good to see Colon make it to through 8 innings so Girardi didn’t have to go to his “8th inning guy” Thank God Colon was strong so we didn’t have to see that scenario.
Robbie Cano had a nice line drive homerun to right field. Cano was described by Andrew Jones as a cross between Ruth and Aaron.
Jeter another hit, 52 away from three large.
Game ball: Colon
Win Colon 2-1
Yankees 13-8
Just a Brooklyn kid talkin about the Yankees
