Yankees Notes: Javier Vazquez, Mark Teixeira, Jorge Posada

style="text-align: justify;">Behind a strong performance from Javier Vazquez (4-5, 6.06) the Yankees beat the Orioles 3-1 thanks to a costly two-run error by Miguel Tejada late in the game.

Here are some notes:

Vazquez was most impressive getting out of trouble in his final inning. His line: 7 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, 1 HR. Joba Chamberlain pitched a 1-2-3 8th inning with good velocity and good movement. Mark Teixeira left the game yesterday in the 3rd inning after he took a foul ball off his foot. X-rays were negative. Expect him to be day-to-day. Jorge Posada expected to be activated yesterday and was upset when he wasn’t. Now he’s expected to return as the DH against the Blue Jays this weekend.
