Hughes managed to improve his ERA a bit, and we managed to get another $2 for the CHF.
The Bad
The Yankees just got swept. By Oakland. Yes, the Oakland Athletics. Swept. Four games. In a row.
The Ugly
Facebook stock is still losing value. It's not clear how a company whose only product is given away for free is failing to be more profitable, but it is. Recently, Facebook executives turned to Yankees Chief Operating Officer, Lonn Trost for advice.
"Like Facebook, the Yankees also basically give away their product," explained Trost to uberjerk Mark Zuckerberg. "We produce wins and championships, the satisfaction of which can be enjoyed without paying a dime. But what you have to do is get people interested in the making of the product. People want to see how a championship gets built, and they'll pay $2500 a seat to watch it happen. That's how you become profitable."
Informed that nobody sits in the expensive seats at Yankee Stadium and that even fewer still would pay that much to watch a bunch of nerds type up code for hours, Trost grew exasperated and left the room. Mark Zuckerberg wept.
The CHF Still Gets Love
Even though we can no longer win and our season is doomed, the Yankees still managed to make another $2 for the CHF. Granderson hit his 26th home run of the season, garnering another $2 for the kids. Hurray!
