Sabathia out duels Verlander
The New York Yankees CC Sabathia outdueled Justin Verlander in a vintage pitching match-up. The Yankees won against the Detroit Tigers, 2-1. Sabathia didn’t allow a run in seven innings. He picked up his ninth win of the season.
‘If it went out by 10 rows, all right. But just scraping the back of the wall is frustrating. I’d rather a guy hit it 10 miles,’ Verlander said. ‘I didn’t think he hit it very well, but it had the right trajectory and he hit it to the right part of the field.’
‘It’s very frustrating,’ Verlander said. ‘It’s very disappointing to throw the ball as well as I did and come away with a loss.’
Alex Rodriguez hit his 571st home run of the season. The Yankees have lost only five times in their last 20 games.
