A trio of home runs by the New York Yankees boosted them to a 9-5 win over the White Sox in a game in which the Sox offense was productive on all fronts.  Eight out of the nine batters tallied a hit in the game including five of the players having at least two hits in the game.  A.J. Pierzynski hit a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth but his spark failed to start a rally for the South Side Sluggers.  Jose Contreras started the game for the Sox and went six and one-third innings giving up seven hits and four earned runs.  Bobby Abreu had a grand slam in the seventh inning and Johnny Damon had a three run shot in the eighth inning along with Jason Giambi’s solo shot in the second inning.  The three home runs proved to be the difference for the A-Rod-less Yankees as they helped to give Chien-Ming Wang his fourth win of the season.  Contreras’ record fell to 1-2.  Javier Vazquez takes the mound tomorrow against Mike Mussina in the second game of the three game series between the Sox and Yankees.
