PREGAME NOTES:

• Talk about getting thrown into the fire from the onset - Brett Gardner will make his major league debut tonight and bat leadoff in place of Johnny Damon.
  
• As expected, Justin Christian has been sent back down to Scranton to make room for Gardner.
• Yanks have owned the Rangers in recent years; winning 20 of the 26 meetings between the teams since 2005.
• Scott Feldman is a lifetime 0-0, 81.00 ERA, 12.00 WHIP in one career appearance against the Yanks. 
  
• Mike Mussina is a lifetime 17-12, 3.76 ERA, 1.11 WHIP against the Rangers.  He is 6-0, 2.72 ERA, 0.84 WHIP in 9 starts against them since 2003.
