Yanks Beat A's

Curtis Granderson and the Yanks built up a good lead for Bartolo Colon, who was one again sharp, then had to hold on as David Robertson, Mo Rivera and went conditions almost cost them the game. Colon pitching well was a great sign. Nunez seems to be heating up at the plate a bit, too. The bullpen gave up fly balls, and the OF was so wet, some of them turned into doubles. Good win and getaway day. One week to the deadlines, and as happens every year, some of the Yanks best prospects have been struggling this week and probably will until the deadline passes. It must be tough. Let's see if the Yanks can finally go 20 games over tomorrow.
