New York Yankees 5 -- Atlanta Braves 5 (10 innings)

Hiroki Kuroda had another strong outing despite a 5-5 tie with the Atlanta Braves. In Kuroda's 7 innings of work, he gave up 2 runs on 6 hits, one being a home run. Kuroda produced 8 groundouts and 2 of those were double plays so he had his splitter and other breaking ball pitches working today. Cory Wade delivered another shaking outing of relief as he gave up 1 run in his inning of work and raising his ERA to 7.27.

Eric Chavez was the big offensive contributor today as he had three run-scoring hits. Robinson Cano brought in a run as well with a single and an error in left field.
