He’s done it so many times before that we shouldn’t be surprised, but Derek Jeter had another great night in October. The captain went 5-for-5 with two singles, two doubles and a home run as he helped spark New York to an 8-4 victory.
Chien-Ming Wang didn’t pitch up to his usual standards, but he was good enough. Wang gave up eight hits and three runs over 6 2/3 innings, but he got key groundballs in the second and third innings to snuff out potential Detroit rallies. Tiger starter Nate Robertson was hit all over the park, surrendering twelve hits and seven runs in 5 2/3 innings of work.
New York will look to take a 2-0 series lead tomorrow night with Mike Mussina facing Justin Verlander.
