BRONX, New York (Ticker) -- The streaking New York Yankees will face a tough test on Wednesday as Jake Peavy takes the mound for the San Diego Padres in the middle game of a three-game interleague series.
Peavy, who is making his second start since coming off the disabled list, is pitching on an extra rest and may need the added boost to slow a Yankees team that has won five straight.
Jason Giambi homered twice and Andy Pettitte threw seven scoreless innings in a 8-0 win in Tuesday's opener. The Yankees, who have also won 10 of 13, have outscored their opponents 35-6 during their current five-game run.
The reigning National League Cy Young Award winner, Peavy (5-3, 2.64 ERA) will try and put an end to that impressive stretch. The righthander allowed just three hits in six innings of a 9-0 victory over Los Angeles on Thursday after spending nearly a month on the DL with a strained right elbow.
The Yankees have recorded consecutive shutouts for the first time since 2005, but it's unlikely that Darrell Rasner (3-4, 3.64) will continue that streak. The struggling righthander is 0-4 with a 5.09 ERA in his last four starts.
