The Good

Kuroda pitched a great game.  He gave 8 innings of 2-run ball, while Jeter got the only extra base hit, and scored the only run.

The Bad

Jeter's two hits accounted for half of the total Yankee hits, and his double accounted for all of the power.  This offense is really bad.

The Ugly

It's really challenging to watch the Yankees lose great starts out of their rotation.  A lot of attention has been given to the fact that the rotation is riddled with injuries, and we need pitching, but at this stage, our offense is the worst performing part of this team.  We've dropped two Tanaka starts that were winnable, and now a solid 8 inning effort by Kuroda.

That's what the children look like after yesterday's power outage.  No money for the Children's Health Fund.
