The New York Yankees and the Arizona Diamondbacks are
finally set to kick off the second game of their three-game interleague series
this week down in Arizona’s Chase Field. The Diamondbacks went into the deep
end of the free agent pool this offseason bringing in tonight’s starter Zack
Greinke while the usually generous Yankees did not sign a single free agent
this winter instead relying on their young arms and farm system led by their
starter tonight Michael Pineda. A tale of two teams going in completely
opposite directions collide tonight inside Chase Field at 8:40 pm ET. Who wins?
You’ll have to watch to find out that’s half of what is great about baseball.
The Yankees have one more game in the Arizona desert before
traveling to Oakland Coliseum to face off with the Oakland Athletics. This
gives you five more days to grab a pair of Yankees tickets off the blog before
the team returns home to the Bronx and Yankee Stadium. All you have to do is
click the Yankees tickets link at the top of the blog and pick your seats
without having to pay an arm, a leg, any sort of fees or shipping costs through
our partnership with Ticket Monster. Until then you can follow along on twitter
by giving @GreedyStripes a follow while we navigate and live tweet each and
every game every single season.
Jacoby and the Yankees are ready to wreak havoc and they
have their hands full with a great pitcher in Zack Greinke. Let’s see how it
turns out. Go Yankees!
