Yankees game 69 lineup: 6/16/13

Happy Father’s Day!

The Yankees look to avoid yet another sweep this afternoon when they play the Angels. They will try and do so without Mark Teixeira, who was sent back to New York early to get his wrist examined. Teix re-aggrivated it yesterday and was removed from the game, obviously not good news for the team. Probably the best pitching matchup of the weekend, CC Sabathia takes the mound against Jered Weaver. The Yankees return home after the game  to begin a nine-game homestand after a day off tomorrow. Check out our game preview here.
