The Yankees and the Jays will try again to open the season, this evening in the Bronx. It'll be Roy Halladay for Toronto and Chien-Ming Wang for the Yankees. The game is on YES and WCBS 880 AM
**MLB.com has a few notes: Johnny Damon has logged the most career at-bats against Halladay, batting .328 (22-for-67) with three doubles, one home run, and two RBI ... Jason Giambi has three career home runs off Halladay and is a .315 hitter (17-of-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 out dueled Halladay.
