One That Got Away

What were they thinking? After playing so well the past few weeks, it's a bit tough for fans to accept last night's 5-3 clunker loss to the Angels. Man, it would have been awesome to go up 2-0 heading into tomorrow night's game in the Bronx with the Big Unit on the mound. But hypotheticals are for us fans to ponder. I'm sure what Joe Torre is thinking is that now Shawn Chacon will be thrown into the action on Saturday. Let's just hope the Yanks don't have to take the caravan back to the left coast on Sunday.

For all the deserved praise that has been thrown towards Robinson Cano for his clutch hitting the first 2 games of this series, the guy has not held up as a fielder. It seems every game there's a key miscue which ends up haunting the team later on. I know he's a rookie but dude, we need to make those basic plays at 2B....please.

NOTES: We will be at the Stadium Friday night covering Game 3 so expect an entertaining weekend of posts.

Don't worry. The Yanks will pull through. They are like Tom Brady and the Patriots. Despite the last couple of years, I still watch the Yankees and see the result as a foregone conclusion. For me it's like watching a train wreck. I can't look away even though I know it's not going to end well. (Can you tell I'm not a Yankee fan)
