Cabrera finished 2-for-4 with three RBI. Jeter went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in the leadoff spot.
Joba Chamberlain started and struck out three and walked three in 4 1/3 innings. He also gave up three hits and two earned runs. Phil Coke, Edwar Ramirez, Brian Bruney, Jose Veras and Jonathan Albaladejo all had scoreless appearances.

This spring has been great, hopefully they maintain this kind of momentum.
Amen. No slow starts for anybody!
Yeah right guys, this is still the Yankees we're talking about. When you have 4 players recovering from surgery, I'd take a .500 April.
It would be nice not to have yet another worrisome April again. We have the pitching to help combat that, I feel.
