The Good
Sabathia went 8 innings allowing 2 runs for the win. Rivera closed it out. Jeter and Matsui did their fair share with Jeter tieing the game at 2, and Matsui hitting the go ahead homerun. Gardner made an amazing throw to home to catch Barajas trying to score.
The Bad
Against a guy like Tallet, we weren't able to do much.
The Ugly
A-Rod's 0-5 night has him at a .143 average. He needs to step his game up!
Respect Jeter's Gangster is for the Children
The "Respect Jeter's Gangster" blog joined Johnny Damon's home run club, which raises money for the Children's Health Fund. We are pledged to donate $1.00 for every homerun the Yankees hit this season. We will keep a running tally of the home runs hit and the money donated throughout the season. Matsui hit the go ahead home run last night, and added one more to the cause.
Jorge Posada 4hr = $4.00
Hideki Matsui 4hr = $4.00
Derek Jeter 4hr = $4.00
Mark Teixeira 7hr = $7.00
Nick Swisher 8hr = $8.00
Robinson Cano 6hr = $6.00
Johnny Damon 9hr = $9.00
Melky Cabrera 4hr = $4.00
Jose Molina 1hr = $1.00
Alex Rodriguez 1hr = $1.00
Brett Gardner 1hr = $1.00
Total = $48.00

In fairness, A-Rod was robbed of a double. On the other hand, he's A-Rod so #$%&*@ him.
To be fair, ARod is about in the third week of Spring Training. He's starting to put wood on the ball, and that's a good thing. Maybe back in New York, he'll recapture the mindst of his forst AB, and something good will happen.
I'm more concerned about Tex. WTF?
Getting twice the production out of the 8 and 9 holes than from the 3/4 is just sick.
The team being at .500 with a lineup of minor leaaguers and walking wounded is really pretty amazing.
Swish needs a day off, but who's gonna fill in?
Damon is being amazing, but he's hurt pretty bad.
If this team can hang on until theDL clears, good things wil happen.
(The bullpen--and AJ-- might even remember how to pitch.)
Wonder which Phlop is showing up tonight?
