  1. Pettitte gets lit up, battles, and loses.
  2. Cano starts, sort of hustles, still goes 0/4.
  3. Gardner hits a long fly ball for a double that would've been caught if the center fielder wasn't playing pitcher depth, Michael Kay fawns over him. (Batting average all the way up to .185).
  4. Veras pitches. Veras gives up a run.
  5. The Twins lose in extra innings, proving the Yanks will even fail as spoilers.
  6. Damon breaks a bat.
  7. Yankees fold after they get down by more than 1 run.
  8. Girardi warms up Humberto Sanchez, doesn't put him in the game.
  9. Jeter breaks Gehrig's record.
  10. The record becomes larger than the game. The player becomes larger than the team. Jeter is uncomfortable in the spotlight when the team is playing so badly and quietly seethes, along with Mo Rivera, the only other guy on the roster who even cares at this point.
Player of The Game: Robertson
Team Record: 80-71
Damon: Uno. 62 on the season.

11.Jorge Posada, our sidelined but high as a kite catcher who blew kisses to Nady and waved a bottle of drink to A-Rod in the dugout, took too many pain killers.

He does seem a little off his rocker these days, doesn't he?

player of the game jeter what a the f is wrong with you?? u dont even give any credit to one of the best clutch yankees of all time what a joke
u should be ashamed

As a National League fan, here's some perspective...
If the Yankees were in the NL West, they'd have a one or two game lead over Joe Torre's Dodgers at this point. (WOW, Joe Torre and Dodgers still look awful in the same sentence when you think of what the Yanks are stuck with).

On a personal note, with the Yankees nearly out of the playoff picture, can you please bring your great writing over to cover the Phillies, who have battled their way back into first place?! They deserve some coverage and recognition here!
