Mood Music - The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden
Tonight, with portly hero CC Sabathia taking the hill for the New York Yankees, they will look to get back to their winning ways. CC has been his usual self, posting a 2.98 ERA and giving the Yankees depth in nearly all of his starts. He will look to keep things going against the Angels, who defeated the Yankees 3-2 last night.
Opposing CC will be Ervin Santana, who has posted a 4.34 ERA and 3.82 FIP in 76.2 innings so far this season. Santana will feature a four-seam fastball in the neighborhood of 92-93 MPH, a slider (his best pitch), and a change up.
Look for the game thread at 8:30.
