A quiet second, too

Andy Sonnanstine, who should lock up one of the spots in the rotation, cruised through his first two innings. He just retired the Yankees in order in the second.

The Rays had a two-out threat in the top of the inning when Jason Bartlett reached on an infield single that bounced off the glove of Alex Rodriguez and Jon Weber walked.

But Yankee start Darrell Rasner was not in serious trouble, not with Josh Paul coming to the plate.

Paul flied out to right.
