| Two of the top three in batting in the AL do battle in this series, and they showed why they are two of the top three today. League leader Bobby Abreu ups his average to a hefty .537 with a perfect 4 for 4 day including a homerun during garbage time in the 9th, and number 3 Julio Lugo gets a nice 3 for 4 day with 2 doubles and 3 RBI, upping his average to .455. Mike Sweeney of the A's sits between them on the leader board at .471. Clay Buchholz goes a solid six innings for his first win of the year. |
