Matsui's two-run homer in the first was matched by back-to-back dingers from Chase Utley and Ryan Howard in the bottom of the first off of Joba Chamberlain.
Chamberlain's final line: 4.1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 3 K, earning him the win. The rest of the bullpen followed with 4 2/3 perfect innings. Full box score here.
As mentioned in the CC Sabathia article on ESPN.com, Derek Jeter batted first and Johnny Damon batted second. Joe Girardi said he will continue to use that lineup to see if it makes sense to use during the season.
Jeter went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, a double, and a steal. The change seems to be working so far, but I wouldn't officially change it for the Opening Day lineup just yet.
