New York Mets at New York Yankees
The Mets could use a big game from their new ace. They dropped three of four to last-place Washington, including Thursday's 1-0 loss, and are coming off a 3-4 homestand that included a series against another last-place team, the Reds.
"We're too good of a team to be as inconsistent as we are right now," third baseman David Wright told the Mets' official Web site. "So hopefully we'll go out there and win a series at Yankee Stadium, and that will give us the momentum to springboard us back into divisional play."
The Yankees also need a boost. They dropped three of four at Tampa Bay, including Thursday's 5-2 defeat, and are mired in last place in the AL East.
The Yankees, losers of six of nine, are struggling offensively with Alex Rodriguez and Jorge Posada on the disabled list. They managed just six runs in the four games against the Rays, only two off starters.
Rodriguez ranks first all-time with 221 interleague hits, behind teammate Derek Jeter's 254, and just ahead of Johnny Damon's 220.
"We're much better than this. We can't start blaming injuries. It's part of the game," Damon said. "We just have to deal with it, and we haven't dealt with it the right way."
The Yankees will hand the ball to Darrell Rasner (2-0, 3.00), who's looking to win for the third time in as many starts since being called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on May 4. He won 5-2 at Detroit on Saturday, yielding two runs in six innings.
"He's been a shot in the arm for us," Girardi said. "No one says you have to be fancy or overpowering. He's figured out how to use his stuff and he's done it effectively."
Rasner started against the Mets on May 19 at Shea Stadium, but gave up two runs without recording an out and left when he was hit on the pitching hand with a comebacker. The injury landed him on the 60-day DL with a broken right index finger and ended his season.
This time, Rasner will have to contend with Santana.
"I can't worry about who the pitcher is," Rasner said. "I'm not hitting against him, luckily for myself."
The Yankees own the best interleague record in baseball at 113-79 and are 35-25 against the Mets, who are 91-90 in interleague play. The teams split their six games in 2007, with each winning twice at home.
