I hope they don't play this bad tomorrow

I dont think Giambi will need to bring his glove to the ballpark ever again after that outing.

Yankees rebound nicely with a 5-0 win. First real dominating performance by Johnson, throwing 7 innings, 4 hits, 0 runs, 6 strikeouts.

You said it my man...

I guess Johnson knew what he was talking about when he said his velocity would be higher as it got warmer. He was hitting 98 on the gun today and he looked like he had a lot more confidence in his fastball. Plus with a hard fastball to catch up to... his sliders become much more effective.

Just got back from the game and it was awesome.

I still don't understand why they pulled RJ in the 8th for Gordon when he was doing just fine. Thankfully Mo was able to get out of the jam by striking Walker out.

We sat/stood out right in front of the retired numbers area and just happened to be a bunch of Bleacher Creatures that had traveled down from NY. They were funny as hell. I'll have pictures up shortly.

Up 2-0 on the Pirates right now, Mussina with a perfect game through 3 innings.
