Triangle Trade

Johnny Damon starts off the game with a triple to the centerfield triangle in Fenway. Johnson got ahead in the count, then after missing twice left a pitch up for Damon to drive. Crisp bobbled the ball, and for a moment I thought Damon might score.

Update: Jeter works Johnson to a 2-2 count, and singles up the middle to give New York a 1-0 lead. Johnson's already thrown 12 pitches without getting an out.

Update: Johnson hangs a changeup and Abreu lines it up the middle for a single. Two on, none out for Giambi.

Update: Giambi pops out to Gonzalez in shallow center for the first out.

Update: A-Rod also pops out to shallow center, this time to Crisp. It's up to Cano now.

Update: Cano grounds out to second to end the inning. Johnson does a good job of limiting the damage, although he uses 29 pitches to get it done. The Yankees did an excellent job of working the count.
