Kansas City at New York

The Yankees' bats awakened last night and they got another gem from Ivan Noza. While that should lift the Yankees this afternoon, they anticipate that Derek Jeter will be in the lineup as well for the first time this season. That should ignite a big crowd and give the Yankees a lot of juice for this one. Pettitte tamed this Royal lineup on the road this season when he allowed just 2 runs on 5 hits over 7 innings of work. Santana has had zero success against the Bombers as he enters with a career mark of 0-6, including a loss this season. The Yanks are an impressive 100-48 in Pettitte's last 148 starts as a home favorite. Play on the Yankees.
