Silver Lining Never Looked So Golden

The Good

Despite a rather rough loss in our second game of our home opener there is something to be said for David Phelps 5.1 innings of relief of Hughes allowing just one run and striking out 4. Jeter went 2-5 as the leadoff guy providing spark that a floundering offense couldn't take advantage of.

The Bad

Hughes lasted just 3.1 innings giving up 6 runs. Not a great start especially with Pettitte is looking to take someones spot in the next number of weeks.

The Ugly

Everybody not named Albert Pujols on the Angels hit a homerun. It was tough to see, especially for the Angels who watched Albert cash one of his multi-million dollar checks over the weekend.

Homeruns For Babies

And the Yankees hit none of them! That means zero dollars to the Children's Health Fund!

Raul Ibanez 1hr = $2
Nick Swisher 2hr = $4
Andruw Jones 1hr = $2
Derek Jeter 1hr = $2
Curtis Granderson 2hr = $4
Alex Rodriguez 1hr = $2

Total 8hr = $16

Hey, do you have a problem with Albert? He is a fine guy.
