Yankees Weekend Bash

The Yankees had one of the best weekends of the year with a sweep of a tough team, and a huge milestone reached.
Yankees faced the defending world champion White Sox in a crucial three-game series. Crucial for both teams as the Yankees needed to gain ground on the AL East leading Red Sox and the White Sox needing to gain ground on the AL Central leading Tigers.
One team will succeed.
Yankees made the first game a tough 6-5 thriller when Jose Contreras, unbeaten for the season, took the loss as Mussina went on to win his 11th game of the year.
The second game wasn't much of a game as the Yankees pounded the Sox 14-3.
The final game proved everything. Yankees charged with a quick 6-2 lead. White Sox chipped it away to make it a 6-4 game until Mariano River came in and saved his 400th career game.
Rivera is currently 4th on the all-time list behind John Franco, Trevor Hoffman, and Lee Smith.
