Alex Rodriguez is back in the New York Yankees ' lineup tonight, not a moment too soon for the drowning Bombers (20-24).
The Yankees went 6-11 in his absence, fell to last place in the AL East and were embarrassed at home by getting swept by the New York Mets in the two-game Subway Series this past weekend.
Rodriguez's first challenge will come against Daniel Cabrera and the Orioles (23-20)The Orioles, at three games over .500, have been one of the pleasant surprises in baseball. They were the team expected be in the cellar of the AL East.
You can't hang your hat on one player, Joe Girardi said of Rodriguez. "It's going to take 25, and for us, it's taken about 32 or 33 so far. It's going to continue to take that. Obviously, we're getting a great player back, but he can't do it alone. Everyone has to contribute.Like Damon, Derek Jeter knows Rodriguez's return won't heal all that ails the Yankees. The entire team has struggled with the bat, not just the third basemen's spot in the order since Rodriguez's strained right quad forced him to the DL April 30.
"It doesn't make a difference if guys aren't in the lineup
