NEW YORK -- This much is clear: Michael Pineda had a dark substance smudged on his pitching hand during his first win for the New York Yankees. nike air huarache og rosse . Pine tar or dirt? We might never know. Pineda took a two-hit shutout into the seventh inning, and Jacoby Ellsbury hit an RBI single off old roommate Clay Buchholz in his first game against the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees 4-1 victory Thursday night left a bit of a mystery: Were Pinedas pitches plain old nasty, or was something more sinister involved? "Its dirt," Pineda said. "Between the innings, Im sweating too much, my hand. Im putting dirt -- Im grasping the dirt. ... Im not using pine tar." Ellsbury drew all the pregame attention after switching sides in the rivalry during the off-season. But it was the dark brown, seemingly tacky substance on the lower palm of Pinedas right hand that became the focus. Close-up camera shots showed Pineda (1-1) pitching during the early innings with something on his hand, and there was speculation it was pine tar to help him get a better grip on a chilly night. The game was never stopped for an umpire to examine him, and it whatever it was, it was gone by the fifth. "I became aware of it in the fourth inning through the video that someone had seen," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "And then, when he came back out for the fifth inning, it looked, based on where it was told to me it was located, it looked like the palm of his right hand was clean." Buchholz and fellow Red Sox ace Jon Lester both attracted questions last year about substances they had on the mound, but nothing came of them. "The Red Sox didnt bring it to our attention, so theres nothing we can do about it," umpire crew chief Brian ONora said. "If they bring it to our attention, then youve got to do something." Yankees manager Joe Girardi essentially repeated the same answer five times during his postgame news conference. "I never saw it. Theres nothing really for me to talk about," he said. Making his first Yankee Stadium start 27 months after he was acquired from Seattle, Pineda appeared completely recovered from the shoulder surgery that sidelined him for two years. Throwing at up to 95 mph, he allowed four hits, struck out seven and walked two. Brian McCann ended an 0-for-14 slide with a run-scoring single that put the Yankees ahead during a two-run fourth that also included a run-scoring double-play grounder by Alfonso Soriano. Making just his third big league start after 554 games in the minor leagues, 27-year-old infielder Dean Anna homered as New York made it 4-0 in the fifth. Anna opened spring training wearing No. 93 after six minor league seasons with San Diego, which traded him to New York in November. Now wearing a more respectable No. 45, he was greeted after the homer by Yankees captain Derek Jeter, who gave him a high-five. Anna had received more than 100 emails and texts by the time the game ended, and he even got the ball back. "Words cant explain it. Honestly, they really cant. All the history with these two teams," Anna said. This was slightly different than the way he dreamed it would happen. "In Wrigley Field, actually," he said. "But Yankee Stadium against the Red Sox I think is pretty good, too." After spending nine years in the Red Sox organization and winning World Series titles in 2007 and last year, Ellsbury left for a $153 million, seven-year contract with the Yankees. And his first game put him at the plate against Buchholz (0-1), his roommate at Lowell of the New York-Penn League in their first summer of professional ball. On a 1-for-4 night, Ellsbury reached on third baseman Jonathan Herreras fielding error and scored the games first run in the fourth and singled sharply to left to drive in a run in the fifth. Daniel Nava led off the seventh with a home run into the second deck in right, and Xander Bogaerts single chased Pineda. With David Robertson on the disabled list and Shawn Kelley and Adam Warren unavailable after pitching Wednesday, the Yankees scrambled their bullpen. Cesar Cabral and David Phelps retired Bostons last nine batters -- striking out five -- and Phelps got seven outs for his first career save. "I just figured as long as I was keeping guys off base, they were going to let me go," Phelps said. "Any time you can get a first, as long as its a good first, is always exciting." NOTES: Jeter went 2 for 4 with a double, raising his average to .290. ... The Yankees employed an unusual shift with Grady Sizemore up: Jeter remained at shortstop and rookie Yangervis Solarte moved from third to the first-base side of second; Sizemore grounded out to Solarte in the third. ...

In addition to his go-ahead eagle on No. 17, Scott carded five birdies during his bogey-free, 7-under 64 at Port Royal Golf Course to overcome a 3-shot overnight deficit. The Australian finished 36 holes at 8-under-par 134 in his first appearance at the event, which brings together the years four major champions. "Im thrilled to come out on top," said Scott. "Fun, but a trying couple of days here really, especially today. It felt like a long round out there but I was happy with the score." Rose held a 4-stroke lead through seven second-round holes, but the U.S. Open winner managed a pair of bogeys and nine pars the rest of the way en route to a 69 and a runner-up result at 6-under. PGA Champion Jason Dufner shot 70 and placed third at 3-under, while defending champion Padraig Harrington (71) finished last at 3-over 145. Harrington replaced Phil Mickelson in the field after the British Open champion withdrew due to a scheduling conflict. Scott methodically chipped away at Roses lead on Wednesday, though he didnt pull even until the par-3 16th, where the overnight leader hit into the trimmed branches of a bush, took a drop and eventually bogeyed. At the 510-yard 17th, Scott found the fairway off the tee, then went for the green with his second, dropping a 190-yard 6-iron three inches from the cup and eventually tapping in for eagle. Rose, meanwhile, went left and close to the water with his first, knocked his second just short of the green and chipped within 12 feet before missing his birdie putt and settling for par. Suddenly ahead by two, Scott comfortably parred No. 18 to seal the comeback triumph. "After he made bogey on 16, I managed to capitalize on that by hitting such a great shot into 17," Scott continued. nike air huarache og nero. "A really fun couple of days." Earlier, with wind and rain whipping, Scott birdied two of his first three holes to get within one of Rose. But the Englishman answered, reeling off four straight birdies from the fourth, matching Scotts gain at No. 7, to go ahead by four. The harsh weather eventually relented, but Scott did not, and Rose was caught in the ensuing storm. Rose began to take on water at the par-4 ninth, where he needed three shots to reach the green, then missed his 40-foot par putt and carded bogey. Around the turn, Scott sent his tee shot at the par-3 13th within six feet and kicked that in for birdie, then added another birdie at the par-4 15th to get within one stroke of Rose. A day earlier, Scott stumbled to a double bogey at the 218-yard 16th, but this time he hit just short of the green and made par from there, while Roses lead was washed away for good when he found the branches and bogeyed. "The rain sort of stopped and I guess it was all Adam really I guess," Rose said. "I struggled and hit one bad shot ... hit in the hazard on 16; and I didnt hit a lot of great shots on the back nine, thats what I will say, but I was hanging on. Didnt really play all that well today but was hanging on. And Adam, to give him credit there, had an amazing finish." NOTES: Scott, Rose and Dufner were all first-time major champions in 2013 ... Rose and Nick Faldo (1996) are the only players from England to compete in this event ... Harringtons last-place finish was his worst in four appearances at this event. The three-time major winner placed runner-up here in 2007 and 2008. The defending champion of the PGA Grand Slam of Golf receives the initial invitation if a current major champion is unable to compete. Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
