Mike Mussina pitched 7 innings tonight, allowing just 5 singles and 1 ER en route to his 12th win of the season. Flash and Mo (1-2-3 9th) preserved the victory.

The Yankees were only able to score 3 runs on 8 hits. Robinson Cano, batting in the 9th spot, was 2 for 4 with 2 runs. Bernie, up in the 2nd spot, was 2 for 4 with 1 RBI, as was Sheffield. The other run was scored by Tino while the other RBI was sacrificed in my D. Jeter. A-Rod had the only other hit as he went 1 for 3 on the night.

The game only lasted 2 hours and 55 minutes.

Shawn Chacon (1-1, 2.14 as a Yankee - 2-8, 3.59 total) goes against El Duque (8-5, 4.67) tomorrow at 1:15 eastern.
