Wow. I can honestly say I thought this game was over when Robinson Cano grounded into a double play in the bottom of the eighth inning. I was absolutely sure it was over when the Jays tacked on a run against Farnsworthless. When Jeter and Abreu started off the ninth with two loud outs I was getting ready to write the obit. That's what I get for doubting the Yanks, I guess.Jason Giambi became a Yankee with an extra-inning walk-off grand slam in his first season in pinstripes, I'm not sure what he became today with his upper-deck bomb to win the game. I'm going with, "Coolest guy with a porno/state trouper mustache in the world." Giambi's blast knocked a guy over half-way up in the upper deck, the only longer home run I can remember at the stadium was hit by Barry Bonds a few years back.
I have plenty of negatives to take away from the game, but I don't feel like sullying this post or raining on my own parade right now. I'm going to enjoy this one for a while. Check back later for more analysis. What a game!
Player of The Game: Duh.
Team Record: 30-30
Damon: 1 mediocre piece of kindling.

watched the first 5 innings then had to run out. When I returned I switched the game only to hear Micheal Kaye saying "the Yanks are down to their last strike".
I watched just for the heck of it. Matsui on first Giambino at the plate with 2 strikes. I thought we were Done-ski but I was proved wrong.
Was that exciting or what?
That was the corner and we turned it bigtime! Greener pastures here we come.
