Yanks unveil Opening Day lineup? Mo makes 1st S.T. appearance in a game. Hughes pitches 4 scoreless in Yanks 4-1 win.

So far: Not a good outing for AJ. You wanted him to go four to stretch out, and he goes 2 1/3, walks 4.  1 R, 2 H, 2 K. Zack Segovia comes in for him.

Swisher had an RBI double in the 2nd. 1-1 in the 3rd.

Make that 2-1. Teixeira HRs.  3-1 as Cano doubles, Posada singles him in. Scoreless 4th for Segovia. We should see Mo next inning.

Well, not a 1-2-3. But a scoreless inning. Mo gives up a hit and a walk, gets a K. From Chad Jennings over at the LoHud blog:

Mariano Rivera said his arm felt “day and night” better tonight compared to how it felt at this time last year. “I walked a guy,” he said. “I got too excited.”

End 5; Yanks 3 Astros 1.

In Hughes’ first inning, he gave up a hit but got a K and a DP. Hughes gave up a hit in inning #2 and also made an error, but scoreless.

Gardner and Jeter single, both leave for PR, and Austin Romine brings in a run with a groundout. 4-1 Yanks after 7.

In his 3rd inning of work, Hughes gives up a hit and a walk (and a SB) but gets a DP. 3 scoreless, 3 hits, 1 walk, 1 K. In and out of trouble. Hughes has a scoreless 9th, gets a K. Ends his night with 4 scoreless innings, 3 H, 1 Walk, 2 Ks.

The question as of now for #5 is Aceves or Hughes?
