The Los Angeles Angels but a whooping on the New York Yankees Monday night by the score of 12-1. The Angels used a big sixth inning where they scored six runs to really break the game wide open. There was also a little fight between Pudge Rodriguez and Torii Hunter that caused the benches to clear in the sixth inning. Hunter bumped into Pudge and Pudge pushed him and Hunter went back at Pudge. Wasn’t a full out brawl but sure did nothing for the Yankees in the end.

Carl Pavano dropped to 2-1 on the year as he took the loss for the Yankees. Pavano gave up five runs on six hits in just 5 1/3 innings. Dan Giese and Edwar Ramirez both allowed three runs to score each before Chris Britton allowed one more in the eighth inning. All the Yankees pitchers struggled against the high powered Angels lineup.

Alex Rodriguez had the one rbi for the Yankees. A-rod singled in the first inning to score Johnny Damon. That was all the offense for the Yankees and it was just a terrible game.
