Wasn't that his 25th Grand Salami as well?
The Bird Is The Word
The Bird Is The Word
Rookie Greg Bird drove in all the runs with a pair of 2 run HRs in NY's 4-3 win over the Twins.

LOOK: Yanks' Jorge Posada gets No. 20 retired, plaque in Monument Park - CBSSports.com
On Saturday prior to their home game against the Indians, the Yankees honored Jorge Posada by retiring his No. 20 and giving him a plaque in Monument Park.
The honor is deserved, as Posada spent his entire pro career with the Yankees (24th round, 1990 draft). Across parts of 17 big-league seasons, Posada batted .273/.374/.474 (121 OPS+) with 275 homers, 379 doubles, and 936 walks. As well, he spent almost 13,000 innings behind the plate; made five All-Star teams; won five Silver Sluggers; and was a vital part of five championship Yankee teams. So, yes, the hullabaloo is very much merited.
Posada is the 19th player to have his number retired by the Yankees. On Sunday, it'll be Andy Pettitte's turn

Cleveland has NY's number ... It's 39 now.
Pettite was inducted into Monument Park. Yanks should have started Andy instead.
Jays clobber the Angels ... again to take over 1st by a half game.

Yankees Back In First!
Yankees Back In First!
Eovaldi with his 4+ ERA is accustomed to a lot of NYY run support to cover his sizeable ERA. He didn't get it yesterday. He pitched 8 scoreless innings allowing 4 hits while still throwing a 100 mph fastball into the 8th.
But the Yankees bats were largely silent as Houston's Feldman matched Eovaldi gooseeggs allowing no runs and 6 hits through 8 innings. McCann was cut down at the plate trying to score on a fly to center in the 7th.
In the 9th, Miller relieved Eovaldi after 109 pitches and held Houston scoreless. Perez relieved Feldman, 110 ptiches, and walked a batter, threw a WP, then intentionally walked ARod, walked McCann to load the bases, and gave on a sac fly to Beltran for the 1-0 Yankee win. Miller evened his record at 2-2.
NY placed Sabathia on the 15 day DL with a sore knee and Girardi noted he might not be back this season.
Nova pitches Tuesday.
Toronto didn't play Monday.

Severino had another good outing, shutout ball through 6 innings, 4 hits, 3 BB, 6K for his 2nd win. Yankees still have trouble scoring spurns for Severino. He had a 2-0 lead when he was pulled for a pinch hitter in the top of the 7th. NY only had 6 hits but 5 were doubles.
Eovaldi pitches Sunday.
Teixeira still not able to play, sore shin.

A braves chat i get on now saying that there was possible an altercation that took place and this gentle man was pushed and then fell over. Either way sad for his family and all the fans that had to see this.

I think he calls them "Clear Slams", or "Cream Slams"...

Toronto is peddling just as fast..
As of right now you've got to be pretty proud of these guys though.
Cashman has done a heck of a job providing veteran leadership with young talent.. Let's just hope the veterans stay healthy and strong for the back end of this ride.

Could have used some of those runs in NY. Yanks dropped 3 of last 4 at home while scoring only 7 runs in those 4 games.
