Unfortunately, it was the Yankees' barn and it burned to the ground.
***SIX HOMERS DIDN'T HELP***
Pettitte didn't have it nor did Abaladejo. You could tell how bad the pitching was when Mitre was the most effective hurler the Yanks had. If Sergio keeps this up, he's going to ruin his standing in the "Mop-Up Rotation." So, 6 home runs couldn't do it. They needed at least 8.
Michael Kay mentioned, tongue-in-cheek, last night, how the Red Sox hadn't given up, feeling that with 6 games left against the Yanks, they still had a chance. Ha-Ha. It doesn't seem quite so funny this morning. It almost appears that the Yankee season now rests in the hands of Nova & Mosley. Not a pleasant thought.
Michael Kay announced last night that this was the Yanks 13th sell-out of the year, yet ESPN listed the attendance at 49,000+, 94.7% capacity. I don't understand.
***AND THE YANKS GET HIM NEXT***
As if the Sox weren't enough, next week the Yanks have to figure out how to stop Jose Bautista, who blasted two more homers last night, to give him 52 for the season. The PED-use suspicion is starting up in the sports columns, but it does seem unlikely.
***TRYING TO LIGHTEN THE MOOD***
From Sports Deke. com:
"Reports say the Tennessee Titans mascot T-Rac completely devoured a cheerleader during their opening game.That sounds hard to swallow." (Obviously took Pun lessons from Dwight Perry).
But, it really happened. Check out the following link:
