The Yankees vs Francisco Liriano
Francisco Liriano opposes A.J. Burnett at the Stadium tonight.
It only feels like Liriano has been around a while, given how much hoopla surrounded his break-through 2006 season. But an elbow injury, surgery and long rehab kept him off the mound for so long that the Yankees really don't have much experience facing him. Nevertheless, here's how they've fared:
Mark Teixeira ... 1-for-9, home run, seven strikeouts
Marcus Thames ... 4-for-9, three home runs
Nick Swisher ... 3-for-9
Robinson Cano ... 1-for-6
Derek Jeter ... 2-for-5, home run
Alex Rodriguez ... 0-for-3, three walks
Jorge Posada ... 1-for-3
Brett Gardner ... 2-for-3
