Just when the authors of this blog had given up on the chance of a game being played and decided to hit the sack–it is a school night, after all–the Yanks and Orioles took the field. They got it in and the game ended after two in the morning New York time. We are happy to report that under 1,000 fans, often referred to as “brave souls,” but more aptly known as “complete nuts” or “stadium employees,” watched the Yanks win. Upon further review, it would have been worth staying up just to hear John Sterling bellyaching.

Jon D will be around in a bit to give you some more details.

That is all.
