A Biased Look at the New York Yankees, the Greatest Franchise in the History of Sports
[powered by WordPress.]
All is right with the world. At least today. The Yankees, behind a strong outing by Randy Johnson, beat the Orioles and won their third straight game. The Red Sox lost to the Devil Rays, and the Yankees now lead the Red Sox in the American League East by a 1/2 game.
Randy Johnson gave up three hits through eight innings, and he pitched the way we’re paying him too. Mariano Rivera closed out the game and notched his 41st save.
Trading deadline pickup Matt Lawton came up with the big hit. His two run homer in the second inning accounted for all of the Yankees runs.
The Red Sox are now on the outside looking in. We have one more game against the Orioles which will balance out the schedule. A win tonight will put us a full game ahead in the East. Hopefully Mike Mussina is ready to come back and help our playoff run.
