Bombers bits
Johnny Damon has logged the most career at-bats against Halladay, batting .328 (22-for-67) with three doubles, one home run and two RBIs. ... Jason Giambi has three career home runs off Halladay and is a .315 hitter (17-for-54) against him. ... The Yankees were 10-8 against Toronto in 2007, including 5-4 at Yankee Stadium. ... The Yankees have won three consecutive Opening Days and six of their last eight, including a 2003 opener at Toronto in which Roger Clemens outdueled Halladay. I like the Yankees chances and can't wait to watch the game tomorrow. Remember if you miss the game I will have a recap every day, no later than and hour and a half after the game. Enjoy! GO YANKS!
