The Yankees have already hit two long home runs off Orioles pitcher David Hernandez with Nick Johnson connecting for one in the first and Nick Swisher belting one in the second.
Pitching coach Rick Kranitz was also thrown out of the game in the bottom of the second inning for arguing balls and strikes while Brett Gardner was at the plate. Plate umpire Paul Emmel threw him out.
It was Kranitz's first ejection as the Orioles' pitching coach, but not the first time the Orioles have had problems with Emmel. If you remember a couple of years back, Orioles manager Dave Trembley motioned for Emmel to get thrown out of the game after a disputed play at second base.
By the way, the Orioles' offense has three hits in two innings against Andy Pettitte, and no runs because they've hit into two double plays.
