TEAMS: New York Yankees

F3
From Peter Abraham: is reporting that Xavier Nady will head to Tampa to continue his rehab. He has no problem hitting, but the Yankees are going to wait until he's able to play the outfield he has yet to throw the ball as hard as he can."I'm trying to be smart," he said. "It's probably 85, 90 percent throwing-wise. It continues to get better."Nady also said,"The last few days have gone good. It's good to be progressing," Nady said. "I'm trying to build up enough arm strength to get by."Nady will begin more extended spring training games starting with four innings in right field tomorrow.It looks like it could be another few more weeks for Nady.

With family in the stands, Lannan stymies Yankees

NEW YORK | The way Ed Lannan, living in Long Island, came upon a series of playoff tickets that gave him memories of some of the greatest New York Yankees teams was through a friend at work and a little luck.

Yankees Comeback Thwarted in 9th

Robinson Cano was the hero Tuesday night and had a chance to be again last night. The Nats had other ideas.

Wet-n-wait: Nats-Yanks game starts 5 1/2 hours late

Wearing a brand-new Derek Jeter jersey, Travis Como could only munch on a hot dog and hope. This was his one chance to see a game at Yankee Stadium _ whether he would all depended on the weather.

A really wet day for Yankees

After 5 1/2 -hour rain delay, Nationals shut them out, 3-0 Craig Stammen (1-2) and the Washington Nationals really dampened the New York Yankees' day.

Washington Nationals (16-46) at New York Yankees (37-27), 7:05 p.m.

Chien-Ming Wang will likely be fighting to keep his spot in the rotation when the New York Yankees play the second test of their three- game series with the lowly Washington Nationals this evening at Yankee Stadium.

Wang's last shot to stay in rotation

After going 0-4 with a 21.60 ERA in his five starts this season, Chien-Ming Wang must show the Yankees that he is closer to the two-time 19-game winner he used to be. Otherwise, Phil Hughes could return to the rotation.
