Had Our Phil for the Night

The Phil Hughes debut is over. After much acclaim, we saw flashes of brilliance, and flashes of a 20-year old who definitely needs some seasoning. Make no mistake though, this kid has a live arm.

Rookie Adam Lind and veteran Vernon Wells provided the difference in the the type of night it was for Hughes. Lind struck out all 3 times he faced Hughes and looked over matched in doing so. Wells, one of the best players in the game, had hits all 3 times and stung the ball each time. Hughes showed good command and a very live fastball.

Hughes' final line score was 4 1-3 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 5 K. He threw 91 pitches, 53 of which were for strikes. He left with 2 men on and one of those runners came home against Brian Bruney, and stands to lose if the 4-0 deficit is not overcome.


The Yankees bats have not been very lively so far, wasting whatever opportunities A.J. Burnett has give them.

Derek Jeter was in the original starting lineup, but was a late scratch due to his sore left thigh.
