http://0rz.tw/7b3X5 Wang outduels Sabathia Yankees end three-game slide; Cabrera's homer only run By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com CLEVELAND -- The Yankees' Chien-Ming Wang may have lost twice in last year's abbreviated postseason run, but the 19-game winner pitched like an October ace on Sunday at Progressive Field. In a rematch of Game 1 of last year's American League Division Series, Wang outdueled defending AL Cy Young Award winner C.C. Sabathia, hurling seven scoreless innings as the Yankees edged the Indians, 1-0, snapping New York's three-game losing streak in a classic pitchers' duel. Wang struck out a season-high nine, one shy of his career high, and only allowed one baserunner to get as far as third base in the effort. Wang continued his undefeated opening to the campaign and finished the month of April 5-0, scattering four hits while walking two in a 113-pitch performance. Melky Cabrera accounted for the game's only run when he popped a solo home run, his fifth of the season, just over the left-field wall in the fifth and immediately following a pickoff of Robinson Cano from first base. As Cabrera rounded the bases, Sabathia barked a few words in the general direction of third base, apparently displeased that Cabrera spent a few extra moments admiring a 347-foot shot. Sabathia would get his revenge, in a sense, as New York threatened in the sixth. Derek Jeter opened the inning with a double to left-center and moved up on a groundout, but after a mound visit, Sabathia struck out both Alex Rodriguez and Shelley Duncan to end the sixth. That was a highlight moment in an overall sharp outing for Sabathia, who lived up to his award-winning billing with a four-hit, eight-strikeout performance. He walked just one. Joba Chamberlain relieved Wang for the eighth following two days of rest. Despite the victory, the Yankees received a large dose of bad news before the game as catcher Jorge Posada was scratched from the starting lineup with a recurrence of the right shoulder injury that prevented him from catching for a good portion of this month. A New York Times report indicated that Posada has a torn shoulder muscle and likely appears headed for the disabled list. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.166.146.25
