Now We Have A Problem
Top of the 4th here in the Bronx and Nick Swisher has been pulled from the game. Swisher looked like he hurt his bicep again in the bottom of the second when he dropped the bat after striking out. He played in the field in the top of the third, but was shown shaking his arm and didn't have to make a play.
Chad Huffman is currently the only other outfielder on the 40-man. Huffman popped 20 HR's in AAA last year and is off to a .274/.337/.453 start at Scranton.
UPDATE (11pm) Kim Jones reported on the YES postgame that Nick Swisher had a MRI which revealed a "slight strain" in his bicep. He is listed as day-to-day
Comments
Side comment here: Cervelli made that entire 7th inning possible by beating out the infield hit. I can't remember the last time we had a catcher who had some speed in his legs. Jorge would have been out by 6 feet. And nice to see A-Rod launch that slam under pressure. Can you say, "clutch"?

The intentional walk to Teixeira seemed to fire up A-Rod. Nice to see.
