YANKEES (78-70) Damon LF Jeter SS Giambi !B A. Rodriguez DH Nady RF Cano 2B I. Rodriguez C Ransom 3B Gardner CF Pavano RHP Notes: Late report time for the boys today, hence the late lineup. … Abreu played both games yesterday and may just be getting a day off. … The Yankees beat Jackson on Sept. 3 in Tampa. He lasted only 3.1 innings, giving up six runs on 11 hits. The Yankees are 10-7 against the Rays. This is the final game of the season series. … The Yankees start the day 11 games out of first and nine back in the wild card with 14 games to play. LOOK OUT, LOU: After going 6 for 7 in yesterday’s doubleheader, Derek Jeter now has 1,266 hits at Yankee Stadium and is just three hits shy of tying Lou Gehrig’s all-time record. COKE IS IT: Rookie LHP Phil Coke has not allowed a run in the seven innings he has pitched. KEEP IT UP: The Yankees got the countdown right in Game 2 last night. They had Don Larsen, David Cone and David Wells – all three authors of perfect games at Yankee Stadium - pull the lever. IDLE CHATTER: After two solid starts, Carl Pavano has not pitched well since. His line in his last two starts: 9.1 innings, 12 hits, 8 runs, 3 walks, 3 strikeouts, 3 home runs. HUGHES FOR WEDNESDAY: Phil Hughes arrived in town. Girardi won’t say whether he’ll start on Wednesday. But all indications are that he will. WANG CHUCKS IT: For the first time since he was injured in June, Chien-Ming Wang played catch today. He could throw off the mound before the season is over, but only just to see how he feels. UPDATE, 11:54 p.m.: The Yankees just announced that Hughes will start Wednesday against Chicago. --
