Yanks rip Oswalt; Burnett throws well
Edwin Nunez hit a three-run home run and Curtis Granderson added a two-run shot off Roy Oswalt in this afternoon's 7-1 exhibition victory over the Phillies. Oswalt left in the third inning.
A. J. Burnett pitched hitless ball for three innings. (Listen to him talk about his start at facebook.com/newsdaysports.)
Yankees pitching had been perfect through the first five innings. That ended when Wilson Valdez homered off Hector Noesi with two outs in the sixth inning.
Eric Chavez had three hits for the Yankees.
