Nova Done

My box score shows Phil Hughes in the game. I wonder if Ivan Nova was hurt?

Update: Hughes strikes out Austin Jackson to start the third.

Update: Hughes strikes out Don Kelly on three pitches.

Update: Hughes grooves in a 3-1 pitch to Delmon Young, and he hits the ball to the wall in right for a double.

Update: Miguel Cabrera grounds into a force play to end the inning. I have to assume at this point that the Yankees brain trust saw something in Nova they didn’t like (too many hanging breaking balls?) so they decided to go with Hughes before the game got out of hand.
