Effingham's Chad Green picked up his first major league pitching victory Sunday afternoon, as the New York Yankees beat the San Diego Padres 6-3.

Green went six innings and allowed just three hits including a home run. He did not walk a batter and struck out eight to even his record at 1-1 on the season.

Green was called up to replace C.C. Sabathia since Sunday's game was in a National League ballpark where Sabathia would have had to hit and run.
