Yankees win both doubleheader games over Baltimore

Yankees won the first game 8-3. The Yanks rested a few starters and still won big. Bartolo Colon got the win with great run support. The whole team was hitting the ball. Nick Swisher had three hits which included a 2 run homerun.

It was a bad day to be an Orioles fan as the Yanks sweep the doubleheader with an amazing win 17-3. The bronx bomers put up 12 runs in the first inning! They set a franchise record for 12 runs in the first inning. Cano, Swisher, and Granderson all had good days at the plate. Cano went 5 for 5 with 5 RBIs. Swisher hit another 2 run bomb during the night game. Granderson went 4 for 6. It was just a great game to watch. Super Swisher has been crushing the ball lately. I love watching Swisher when he is on top of his game. Another important part of this game was Ivan Nova getting called back up from Triple-A. Nova had an easy night but still posts a (9-4)record on the year. Nova was sent down on July 3 for Phil Hughes when he came off of the disabled list. I believe that was a mistake. Nova needs to be in the rotation.
