Much Ado About Nothing

Turns out the much anticipated final 6 games between the Yankees and those other guys from Beantown ended up a draw. After winning 2 of 3 last week, then beating Pedro (HA!) again Friday, I thought the Yanks could grab an edge this month. Turns out they couldn't pull it off. We played 6, won 3. We spanked them twice, got spanked twice. Oh well.

Kevin Brown sure looked rusty. Actually he looked a little tentative. Maybe he's a little shy about the hand injury. Harold Reynolds (Baseball Tonight) was explaining that his follow-through wasn't complete, like he was favoring the hand. That would explain the lack of sink on Kevin's sinker. He'll get one more start to prove he's ready for postseason. Better make it good.

So the pre-game anxiety was for naught. But I did get to see the Yankees on ESPN. Didn't have to listen to the Yankee haters on Fox or Comcast. And we really didn't lose ground this past week. With a lot fewer games to go, that suits me OK.
