Darrell Rasner pitched the game of his life, but thanks to two defensive miscues by newly appointed center fielder Johnny Damon, the Blue Jays were able to eke out a 2-1 win over the Bombers.
The Yankees handed Rasner a 1 run lead after their first at bats of the game. Rasner eventually gave up a solo shot to Adam Lind in the seventh, and Damon's costly error in the bottom of the eighth cost the Yanks the game.
