YANKEES MANAGER JOE GIRARDI: On Pettittes start: He never really threw a lot of pitches, 85 in the 8th inning. He threw the ball really well. On his decision to take Pettitte out when he did in the 8th inning: Its the 8th inning, and that adds to it. If its the 6th inning, its probably a different story if hes at 85 [pitches]. Hes had to get up and down a number of times, and [Brendan] Ryan has had more success off of him - a little success, not much but I just decided to go to Robertson, and thats his job. On Pettitte earning his 250th win and what has meant to the organization: 250 wins and a lot of postseason wins too. Hes been a great Yankee. One when you talk about the all-time greats, thats what hes been. Hes been a pleasure to play with, and hes been a pleasure to manage. On whether Youkilis was okay physically: Yeah, I was worried when he slid again, but he was fine.
