- Yankees 10, Mariners 0: CC Sabathia hasn't lost at Yankee Stadium in his last 15 regular-season decisions -- he did lose Game 1 of the World Series last year -- and he extended that streak with ease Sunday. Rain prevented him from working into the seventh inning, but it didn't stop Robinson Cano from hitting a grand slam and knocking in a career-high six runs. The Yankees now have 10 grand slams this season. That matches a franchise mark from 1987, when Don Mattingly had six himself. The Yankees are now 12-0 without Alex Rodriguez this season. Rodriguez is on the disabled list for almost another two weeks, so if the Yankees can keep that up, they can probably all but wrap up a playoff spot. Don't hold your breath, though.
- Pirates 2, Mets 1: Johan Santana has now thrown three straight complete games. Unfortunately, he's lost the last two of them. Zach Duke outdueled his Mets counterpart as the Pirates avoided a sweep. Jose Tabata -- an ex-Yankees prospect -- and ex-Met Lastings Milledge homered for the Pirates runs. A Carlos Beltran sacrifice fly accounted for the Mets run.
Who needs medical school when all you need to do is cover the Dodgers? It surely isn’t get any easier for the Dodgers as they place right-handed pitcher Vicente Padilla on the 15-day disabled list with a bulging disk in his neck. The team will be recalling right-handed relief pitcher Travis Schlichting from Triple-A Albuquerque.
“It’s a blow,” Torre said. “It’s like that other shoe hitting the floor, you hoped it was going to be better after the last one.”
“He’s had a little bit of left neck pain the last two starts,” head medical trainer Stan Conte said. “After the first couple of innings in his last start it started bothering him again. It kind of bothers him a little bit in the neck, a little bit on the left side in between his shoulder blade.”
Padilla since coming off the disabled list on June 19 with a sore right elbow had been remarkable for the Dodgers before his last two starts having a 1.80 ERA in nine starts with a 4-2 record. He hasn’t fared that well in his last two starts giving up 12 earned runs in 9 1/3 innings pitched - the same amount of runs he gave up in his previous nine starts.
“It didn’t show up in the velocity, but it showed up in his command,” Torre observed.
Dr. Robert Watkins, Jr. performed an MRI on Padilla today and discovered the bulge in one of the disks in the neck.
“It’s not a real big bulge, and it’s not pushing on a nerve,” Conte said. “But it’s a bulge nevertheless and probably the source of where his problem is.”
Padilla most likely will not undergo surgery instead receiving an epidural injection tomorrow to help reduce the inflammation.
