As brilliant as CC Sabathia was on Tuesday night in the Yankees win over the Blue Jays, pitching six shutout innings of work, the Bombers attempt to complete this series sweep with Hiroki Kuroda (8-7, 3.67 ERA) on the mound - not quite the sure thing Sabathia was the day before.
It's been a rough month of July for Kuroda. He gave up seven runs and 10 hits over 5 2/3 innings while not receiving a decision in a 10-8 win on the road against the Red Sox on July 6. Then, upon returning from the All-Star break Friday, he gave up five runs and two homers in 7 1/3 innings while also not factoring in the decision of a 6-5 win against the Angels.
Kuroda will attempt to avoid yet another bad start to lead the Yankees to victory, while facing Ricky Romero in the pitching matchup.
