Oct. 30 8:42 AM PT9:42 AM MT10:42 AM CT11:42 AM ET4:42 PM GMT12:42 AM 北京时间-Matsui homered for one of his two hits Thursday in a 3-1 win over the Phillies in Game 2 of the World Series.

Analysis: Matsui is looking healthy and locked in, with six homers and a ridiculous 18 RBIs in his last eight games. He's batting .333 (12 for 36) over that span.
Aug. 24 11:51 AM PT12:51 PM MT1:51 PM CT2:51 PM ET7:51 PM GMT3:51 AM 北京时间-Matsui hit two homers in the Yankees' 8-4 win over Boston on Sunday night.

Aug. 19 8:07 AM PT9:07 AM MT10:07 AM CT11:07 AM ET4:07 PM GMT12:07 AM 北京时间-Matsui was held out of the New York Yankees' lineup on Sunday, got his swollen knee drained and will likely miss at least one more game.
Analysis: Manager Joe Girardi said after New York lost for just the second time in 14 games on Sunday, 10-3 to Seattle, that the designated hitter will have his surgically repaired knee reevaluated on Tuesday to see if the 35-year-old can play the second game of a series at Oakland.
Aug. 14 12:26 PM PT1:26 PM MT2:26 PM CT3:26 PM ET8:26 PM GMT4:26 AM 北京时间-Matsui had his fourth career two-home run game as New York began its longest road trip of the year with a breezy, 11-1 win over the Seattle Mariners on Thursday night.
Analysis: Matsui celebrated his temporary return to the cleanup spot with his 18th and 19th home runs. Asked if he loves batting fourth, which he's done 15 times this season to Alex Rodriguez's 82, Matsui said through an interpreter: ``I don't hate it.''

Analysis: It was his second game-ending home run in the majors and first since 2003. Matsui has struggled a bit this season and is batting .264, but he's hitting .349 (15 for 43) since June 30 with five homers and 14 RBIs.
Jun. 13 3:04 PM PT4:04 PM MT5:04 PM CT6:04 PM ET11:04 PM GMT7:04 AM 北京时间-Matsui turned 35 and homered on his birthday for the second straight year as the Yankees defeated the Mets 9-8 on Friday.

Jun. 11 11:57 AM PT12:57 PM MT1:57 PM CT2:57 PM ET7:57 PM GMT3:57 AM 北京时间-Matsui ended an 0-for-16 slump with a second-inning double and finished 2 for 3 in the Yankees' 6-5 loss to Boston on Wednesday.

May 31 10:50 AM PT11:50 AM MT12:50 PM CT1:50 PM ET6:50 PM GMT2:50 AM 北京时间-Matsui had a season-high three hits, including two doubles, in Saturday night's 10-5 win in Cleveland.
Analysis: Matsui has three multihit performances in the last four games and has hit .438 (7 for 16) in that time. He had gone 6 for 42 (.143) over his previous 13 contests.
May 28 12:49 PM PT1:49 PM MT2:49 PM CT3:49 PM ET8:49 PM GMT4:49 AM 北京时间-Matsui homered twice and the New York Yankees gained a share of the AL East lead by beating the Texas Rangers 9-2 Wednesday night.
Analysis: Matsui was in a 3 for 23 funk coming into the series, but he went 2 for 3 on Tuesday and then showed some power that has been lacking lately. He now has just seven homers this year and is still hitting .257.
May 15 12:53 PM PT1:53 PM MT2:53 PM CT3:53 PM ET8:53 PM GMT4:53 AM 北京时间-Matsui put New York ahead with a solo homer in the eighth as the Yankees defeated Toronto 3-2 on Thursday.

Analysis: Matsui, who was batting .263 with three homers and 12 RBIs, left Tuesday's game after one at-bat with a tight right hamstring and did not play Wednesday.
May 1 8:08 AM PT9:08 AM MT10:08 AM CT11:08 AM ET4:08 PM GMT12:08 AM 北京时间-Matsui and a two-run double and finished with three RBIs in New York's 8-6 win over the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday night.
Analysis: Matsui, who had a single in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Angels, is batting .395 (15-for-38) with a homer, four doubles and seven RBIs during a 10-game hitting streak.
Apr. 18 5:05 PM PT6:05 PM MT7:05 PM CT8:05 PM ET1:05 AM GMT9:05 AM 北京时间-Matsui's surgically repaired left knee has filled with fluid, causing the banged-up New York Yankees to recall first baseman Juan Miranda from Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Analysis: Yankees manager Joe Girardi said Friday that Matsui would be limited to pinch-hitting, possibly for a few more days. Matsui had surgery on the knee Sept. 22, and the Yankees don't expect him to play the outfield until June. "His knees are pretty beat up, and you don't know how they're going to react from day to day. Hopefully, it's just one day for him," Girardi said.
Mar. 18 10:48 AM PT11:48 AM MT12:48 PM CT1:48 PM ET6:48 PM GMT2:48 AM 北京时间-Matsui won't play in the outfield for the New York Yankees until at least interleague road games in June and will be restricted to designated hitter and pinch-hitting appearances until then.
Analysis: Matsui is recovering from left knee surgery last Sept. 22. Yankees manager Joe Girardi doesn't want to take the chance of a setback. Matsui could hit fourth until third baseman Alex Rodriguez returns from right hip surgery. Rodriguez, expected back in May, would return to his normal cleanup position, with Matsui possibly dropping to fifth.
