Yankees (79-70)
Scouting Report:
White Sox: Vazquez will likely be pitching on short rest in the finale of the Yankees series. He was brilliant in Game 1 of a doubleheader against the Tigers on Sunday. He threw 7 2/3 innings of shutout baseball, striking out eight and giving up just three hits. He faced the Yankees once this year in an outing he would much rather forget. The right-hander gave up six runs on 10 hits in 5 1/3 innings to pick up the loss.
Yankees: Mussina delivered a solid performance against the Rays until he fell into trouble in the fifth inning and could not escape a bases-loaded jam. He was tagged for five earned runs -- his highest total in a game since July 28, and his five innings marked his shortest outing since the same date. Mussina's pitch count built up to 100 before he exited the game. He will look to bounce back in his final start at Yankee Stadium. Mussina picked up the win in his only appearance against the White Sox this season. He held Chicago to just two runs on four hits through seven innings.
