Pettitte has been the Yankees’ best starter today; will he be the stopper for them that he’s been so long? He didn’t give up a walk or a strikeout in his last outing (seven innings) so that may not bode well for him. On Masterson’s side, he’ll likely struggle with Yankee players laying off his sinker. If he can stay in the zone, he’ll go long. Otherwise, it’ll be a short outing.
