If you're looking for negativity tonight, you won't find it here. I'm tired of it, so this post will focus only on the positives we can take away from
this game, as Yankee fans.
Here goes: The Bullpen stood tall, yet again. 9 batters faced by Hawkins, Veras and Edwar, 9 batters retired. Multi-hit games from Jeter and the Melky Man, and both of those guys came through with clutch two-rbi singles. The Yanks pounded out 7 singles. Ian Kennedy only allowed 5 hits in his 5 innings of work. Mo, Joba and Farnsworth all got much-needed rest. Johnny Damon saw his first action of the year at first base.
That's all I've got.
The Ras takes on Johan tomorrow night at the Stadium. Anyone think Hank will be apoplectic if Johan beats the Yanks at the Stadium?
Player of The Game: LaTroy Hawkins, 1 inning, 3 Ks.
Team Record: 20-22
Damon: 0 confirmed, but he did switch bats during the game. Still, only confirmed kindling gets tallied.
The Rays are playing out of their minds!
