Yankees blast Texas

Phil Hughes pitched a terrific game, and the Yankees backed him up with 19 hits and 11 runs as they pounded the Ranger 11-1. The lone Ranger run came on a solo homer in the 9th off Aceves.

The Yankee attack was led by A-Rod, who went 5-5 and drove in 4 runs. Every Yankee starter had at least one hit, while Hughes's spread 3 hits and no runs over 8 innings. The 6 strike out performance was one of his best as a Yankee. The next game is Tuesday at 8:05 in Arlington.
