The Yankees opened up with an impressive 7-6 win over Detroit on Friday night, mainly because the put up four runs on the best pitcher in baseball in Justin Verlander. The Yankees take on anther talented but much less experienced pitcher in Drew Smyly. The Yankees usually rough up lefties and they’ll do it again this Saturday. Freddy Garcia will pitch well enough against a struggling Tigers team that has now lost five games in a row.
