Minny/yankees
Minnesota at NY York
AJ had a 13-9 with a 4.04 ERA in 33 starts during the regular season.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi selected Burnett over veteran Andy Pettitte in part because of Burnett's better home record (5-3 with a 3.51 ERA in 16 starts). The Yankees are 12-4 at home when Burnett pitches.
Although Blackburn has been pitching great his last few he is 0-1 with a 5.89 ERA in four career starts against New York. He's had no success against the Yankees' leader in homers and RBIs - Mark Teixeira - who's 6 for 6 with a homer against him.
The Yankees are 58-24 at home this year (70.7 percent), and New York is on a 12-4 tear with A.J. Burnett pitching at the Stadium.
