News
The New York Post reports that Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez has made adjustments to his batting stance, and he credits his strong performance on Wednesday against the Royals to the changes. Rodriguez told reporters after Tuesday's win, "I feel like I’m about to go off.," after widening his stance and shortening his leg kick in his last at-bat in the game. He carried the changes over into batting practice on Wednesday and into the subsequent contest, in which he went 2 for 4 with a pair of homers and three RBI.

News
Mark Teixeira has finally had enough. After seeing poor results from trying to put the baseball in play more frequently, Teixeira told reporters he is going back to swinging for the fences. “I’m putting too many balls in play instead of taking that swing to hit a home run and drive the ball,” Teixeira said, per The Journal News. “I’ve never been someone who just wants to put the ball in play. In years past, a 1-0 or a 2-0 pitch, it’s maybe a little bit up or a little bit down, you swing and you foul it off or you swing and miss. Now I’m putting that ball in play, which (stinks). I go back to (hitting coach) Kevin Long and I say, ‘Why couldn’t I just foul that ball off?’ It’s unfortunate. Baseball is such a fine line between having a good at-bat and hitting the ball hard or making an out. While last year 39 home runs but a low batting average wasn’t good enough, I think I’d rather hit 39 home runs than 20 or 15. I think I’d rather drive in 111 runs than 80. So I’m going to be more aggressive.”

News

He allowed two runs on seven hits over seven-plus innings of work in the 8-3 win. He made it through his first three frames scoreless before surrendering a solo homer to Billy Butler.

Pettitte was pulled after issuing a leadoff walk in the eighth and threw 71 of his 98 pitches for strikes. Pettitte also struck out eight and walked one while earning his second win of the season. "I feel like I'm moving the ball around the zone and that makes it difficult to hit," Pettitte said.
