Wang looks to rebound as Yankees visit White Sox

Apr 22, 2008 - 1:08 PM NY Yankees (10-10) at Chi White Sox (11-7) 8:11 pm EDT

CHICAGO (Ticker) - The New York Yankees continue their 10-game road trip when they open a three-game set with the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday.

New York, which dropped two of three over the weekend to Baltimore, will send ace Chien-Ming Wang to the mound.

After a stellar start to the season, Wang (3-0, 3.81 ERA) was knocked around by Boston in his last outing, giving up eight runs and nine hits in four-plus innings.

The righthander earned a no-decision as the Yankees pulled out a 15-9 victory over the Red Sox on Wednesday.

The Yankees have been battling injuries so far this season and reigning American League MVP Alex Rodriguez left Sunday's 7-1 triumph with a strained right quadriceps.

He is listed as day-to-day and, with his wife due to deliver the couple's second child this week, his status for the series is uncertain.

The White Sox will counter with former Yankees pitcher Jose Contreras (1-1, 4.34), who is coming off his first win of the season.

The Cuban-born righthander allowed just one run and four hits with six strikeouts in a 3-1 victory over Baltimore last Wednesday.

Contreras is 2-4 with a 3.96 ERA in six career starts against New York.
