Yankees starting pitcher Phil Hughes was once again hammered as he took the mound for the Yankees on Tuesday night.  This time it was the Detroit Tigers who did the hammering as the put up six runs on Hughes in only 3.2 innings.

Besides Hughes sucking, the Yankees bullpen pitched pretty good and atleast gave the offense a chance at coming back and winning the game.  Give the bullpen credit for that atleast.

Robinson Cano hit a two run home run in the second inning, but it wasn’t until the eighth inning when the Yankees scored another run.  In the eighth inning, Derek Jeter was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.  Of course, the Yankees didn’t score another run after Jeter was hit.  In the ninth inning, Jason Giambi had a RBI single that scored Hideki Matsui.
