The defending World Champion New York Yankees spanked the Minnesota Twins again, winning game two of their American League Division Series, 5-2, thanks to 7 great innings from Andy Pettitte, the postseason's all-time winningest pitcher (19 wins). Andy showed no sign of the injury that had him on the disabled list for 2 months recently. What a gamer. Go Yanks. More Info
