Preview:

Gonzalez is at 3B, Matsui is in the field and the Yanks need a win. Luckily, they’ve got the guy on the mound to give them one.

I’m still at work. You guys suck.

Recap:

Tough time for Mariano to give up his first run of the season. Mo comes into the the 11th, gives up a hit, a steal and then a walkoff single.

The offense was the culprit again today. The Yankee’s first run didn’t come until there was 1 out in the 9th. Jason Giami had the only multi-hit game on the team. That won’t get it done.

Wang’s 7 innings of 1-run ball was wasted. Again.

    Wang needs to have a good game, or this series can get really ugly.

    There are worse hitting lineups in the Majors then the New York Yankees, but they figure out a way to manufacture runs but the Yankees can’t. The Yankees at this point of the season are one sorry ass team. The Yankees are a picture perfect inconsistent team.
