MINNEAPOLIS -- Darrell Rasner turned in the shakiest outing of his five starts this season at the big league level, and the Yankees' offense managed little as they slogged through a 5-1 loss to the Twins on Sunday at the Metrodome. Having pitched as well as anyone on New York's staff after being recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the first week of May, Rasner's month of June got off to a rocky beginning, roughed up by hard hits and an odd play that left Melky Cabrera attempting a throw while sitting on the warning track. "You're going to have days like this," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. On an afternoon when Nick Blackburn was flattened by a frightening Bobby Abreu line drive, leaving the Twins right-hander bloodied but not seriously injured, there was a more comical play in the sixth inning, when Justin Morneau raced around the bases on what would be officially scored as a triple and an error. With Minnesota already up, 3-1, Morneau ripped a Rasner offering to the gap in right-center field, and Cabrera chased the ball down before slipping on the warning track. He then attempted to relay the throw to Abreu, but Cabrera's throw went well over the right fielder's head as Morneau raced around third and came home easily "It's some bad luck," said Rasner, who took his second loss. "It looked like Melky slipped, and Melky is going to make those plays. It's just a freak thing." "You see guys fall down, but you haven't seen them throw it over somebody's head like that," Girardi said. The play was but a footnote in the big picture for the Yankees, who managed only Derek Jeter's solo home run off Blackburn in falling back to .500 at 28-28. New York allowed a bases-loaded, one-out opportunity in the third inning to go by the boards, as Blackburn struck out Alex Rodriguez swinging and then induced Hideki Matsui to ground out. It wasn't the only opportunity, but it was most glaring. "You would definitely like to come out with something, but the pitcher is out there on the mound trying to be effective," Johnny Damon said. "Those guys just didn't have it today, [but] it wasn't just that point in the game when we lost it." Jeter -- mired in a 4-for-40 slump coming into Sunday's game -- connected off Blackburn on his third home run of the season in the fifth, a 380-foot shot to left. One batter later, Blackburn was hit by Abreu, who covered his eyes as he ran to first base. Blackburn laid motionless on the field for a few seconds before springing to his feet, a trail of blood visible between his nose and mouth. Blackburn was helped off the field, and reliever Brian Bass had as much time as necessary to warm up because of the injury. That would be it, as Bass hurled 1 2/3 innings of scoreless ball, and Jesse Crain and Joe Nathan took the Twins the rest of the way. "The bottom line is, we didn't score runs," Girardi said With Rasner looking for his fourth win in five starts, he was instead down early. Michael Cuddyer came through with a two-run single after the first three Twins reached base in the first inning, but Rasner settled down to retire the next seven in a row. Minnesota loaded the bases with none out against Rasner in the fourth, but he worked out of the inning with only one run scoring, getting Mike Lamb on a sacrifice fly to right and striking out two. He considered that some success, but he admitted the lengthy fourth probably took some gas out of him, running his pitch count up to its eventual total of 111. "If I had to do it all over again, I'd do the same approach," Rasner said. "I'm not going to change. It's just a matter of a couple of balls that I got up that they hit. That was that." "He had a couple of balls up, but for the most part, I thought he threw the ball pretty well," Girardi said. Scott Patterson made his Major League debut in relief of Rasner, who was charged with four runs on eight hits over 5 1/3 innings, walking two and striking out five. Recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before the game when infielder Morgan Ensberg was designated for assignment, Patterson worked 1 1/3 innings, including striking out Carlos Gomez looking to leave the bases loaded in the seventh. "After I threw that first pitch, it was kind of back to normal," Patterson said. He said that he had not slept last night after being informed of his callup, flying in from Rochester, N.Y., and touching down in Minnesota around 12:30 p.m. ET on Sunday. "It's well worth it when you play with these guys," Patterson said. -- 一对打野炮的情侣 碰上了虎视眈眈的歹徒..... 歹徒: 闪开~!! 让专业的来~! (面露淫色) 炮男: 你.......你想要对我女友作什麽?? 歹徒: 叫你女友给我闪开 你给我趴好~!! --
