See Steven Wright in the crowd?? Jason Bay's bat is pointing at him. See this pic of me with Steven for reference. I didn't see every minute of the game, so I don't know if the NESN cameras noticed him (come on, he was on a hundred times!), like they noticed J Peterman, who was also in the crowd tonight.

So we're 6.5 back, 5 in the loss column! Very few runs being given up by us lately. Read about the Yanks' crazy brawl and fake-spark-finding here.

Francesa actually said what I've been saying about the Yanks today. He even used the word "concern." You got Pettitte feeling achy and missing a start (Andy didn't exactly drip with confidence when he was talking about his arm). You got Burnett diarrhea-ing the bed big time. You got Joba...so....basically their one pitching rock is CC, and he's not exactly Mr. October. Like the last eight years, they're built really well for a regular season, where you see a lot of crappy relievers and rack up runs. But a best-of-five where you're facing top pitching is a different story. Maybe they should think about just packing it in now and letting us AND Texas pass them! Who's with me??
