Pitching Matchup:
NYY: LHP Kei Igawa (0-0, 12.60 ERA)
Igawa may be a rookie in the big leagues, but he's no stranger to pitching against solid competition. The left-hander was 14-9 with a 2.97 ERA in 29 starts for the Hanshin Tigers last season in Japan, and was a three-time strikeout leader in the Central League.
OAK: RHP Dan Haren (0-2, 0.69 ERA)
Haren is 3-0 in five career starts against the Yankees with an ERA of 2.76. He has struck out 28 batters in 33 2/3 innings against the Bombers. He made three starts against them last year, going 2-0, including a six-hitter at Yankee Stadium on May 14, when he allowed one run and struck out six.
