The Yankees play the Cleveland Indians in game two of a three-game set tonight from the Bronx. After the offense came alive last night, New York will look for more of the same against lefty Scott Kazmir. David Phelps hopes to rebound from his last start against the Mets when he couldn’t make it out of the first inning. Brett Gardner will sit tonight against the lefty, Kevin Youkilis is back at third and former Yank Jason Giambi will be Cleveland’s DH.
