I Hate West Coast Games, Part II
Okay, so this time it wasn't as bad as it could have been. The Yankees rallied from a 3 run deficit and Jason Giambi sent us to bed happy with a 13th inning game winner. It was approximately1:30 EDT. We're too tired to even write (see I just had to correct this because I put right) to much.
What we're definitely not happy about is the Yankees defense. Derek Jeter committed 2 more errors, one that opened the flood gates to a 3 run first inning. Bobby Abreu committed an error for the 2nd straight night.
Kudos to Darrell Rasner though. He didn't fall apart after the 1st inning and kept his team in it as the Yankees chipped away.
And the pen did the job again. 7 2-3 shutout innings to be precise. Brian Bruney lost the game on Friday night and won it on Saturday.
Trailing 3-2 in the 7th, A-Rod stepped up big again. His 7th HR of the season, off of A's starter Joe Blanton, evened things up. Then it was up to Giambi in the 13th to break out of his April doldrums and he did just that with a blast well over the 388 sign in right-center.
