After an exciting comeback win last night the Yankees look to win their third straight, as Phil Hughes takes the mound with hopes of regaining the form he had before his most recent start. In his four starts leading up to his last one at KC, Hughes had given up a combined six earned runs. In just 5.2 innings, he matched that run total, even though he registered the win. David Adams will be making his long awaited major league debut tonight, after being called up today on his birthday; Chris Nelson was let go to make room on the roster. Jesus Montero is in the lineup for the Mariners along with Raul Ibanez – they hit back-to-back. Here are the lineups:
