A-Rod stil one homer shy of 500

Aug 1, 2007 - 1:09 PM Chi White Sox (48-58) at NY Yankees (57-49) 7:05 pm EDT

BRONX, New York (Ticker) -- The New York Yankees tied a franchise record with eight home runs on Tuesday night, but their All-Star slugger failed to participate in the barrage.

Alex Rodriguez will take another shot at hitting the 500th homer of his career on Wednesday when the Yankees continue a three-game series against the Chicago White Sox.

New York's 16-3 drubbing of the White Sox on Tuesday was highlighted by eight blasts from seven different players, but Rodriguez came up empty, going 0-for-5. He is 0-for-15 with six walks in five games since hitting his last home run on July 25.

Rodriguez will be taking his hacks against Chicago rookie John Danks (6-7, 4.83 ERA). The 22-year-old lefthander held Rodriguez hitless in three at-bats - striking him out once - in a win over the Yankees on May 22.

New York will counter with veteran Andy Pettitte (6-7, 4.11). The lefthander picked up a loss last Friday at Baltimore, allowing three runs and eight hits in seven innings.

Pettitte has had mixed success against Chicago in his career, owning a 10-8 mark with a 4.59 ERA in 20 career starts.
