Zimmerman Helps Guardians Beat Yankees, 6-4
Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Cleveland Guardians and New York Yankees.

The Cleveland Guardians handed the New York Yankees a 6-4 defeat at Jacobs Field. Third Baseman Ryan Zimmerman starred for Cleveland. He went 4-4 with 3 doubles, while scoring 4. CC Sabathia picked up the win, improving his season record to 18-7. He struck out 9 in 8 innings.

Nick Swisher had a big 2-run home run for the Guardians in the bottom of the third inning. With Cleveland leading 2-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a slider from 39-year old left-handed pitcher Al Leiter and punished it. The result was his 18th home run of the season, which put the Guardians on top, 4-0.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Zimmerman.

Cleveland's record now stands at 66-72, placing them 17th in the Virtual Baseball League.
