Mondesi Shines in 6-4 New York Win
Raul Mondesi helped his team muscle past the Oakland Athletics, 6-4. In the game, the New York right fielder went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. Bret Saberhagen earned the win. Taketo Kanei, who is tied for 5th in the AL in complete games with 1, took the loss for Oakland. Jason Christiansen earned his 10th save, after closing out the game.

With New York leading 2-0 in the bottom of the third, Mondesi hit a cutter from Taketo Kanei for a 2-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Yankees ahead, 4-0.

"Winning is contagious," said Mondesi. "We're looking forward to the next game."

New York, now 20-12, has gotten their season off to a good start.
