Sorry I wasn’t around yesterday to recap the Sunday night game ^[1]. Call it a rare day of rest for Cliff and me. But other than Gary Winfield’s line drive dinger in the first, there wasn’t much to get excited about for Yankee fans, as a three-headed Red Sox monster (Edgar-Cookie-Manny) helped sink Mike Mussina. Boomer Wells, sporting some silly-looking facial hair, had a rocky first inning and then settled down and pitched a fine game. Rodrigo Lopez ^[2] did much better against Boston last night, as the Sox, Yanks trail the Orioles by four games in the AL East ^[3] (the Jays are four-and-a-half behind). The Bombers start the first of four series on the road in Kansas City tonight.
