The Good
There was no no-hitter! Betemit hit a double in the 8th to end Morrow's bid for a no-no. Jeter got a hit later too. Matsui drew 2 walks and scored the only Yankee run. Pettitte pitched a good game at 7 innings and 3 runs, but it wasn't good enough. Veras also pitched a scoreless inning.
The Bad
The Yankees were nearly no-hit by Brandon Morrow on his first major league start of his career.
The Ugly
The Yankees just lost a game to the Seattle Mariners. We are now 8.5 games back in the Wild Card. Pretty wild.
Respect Jeter's Gangster is for the Children

Mr T's Dodgers beat up Brandon Webb on their way to the playoffs.
The Dodgers are up 1.5 games and only 3 games above .500. In that division the Yankees would be dominant.
