The Angels were in town to beat the Yankees about the face and neck once again. The Yanks should just say, “Thank you sir, may I have another?” when they play these dudes. Jared Weaver wasn’t great, but it didn’t matter because the Yankee pitchers were far worse. So the Angels did what they normally do against New York–they smacked the ball around the field, ran around the bases, and flashed some leather (Orlando Cabrera robbed Alex Rodriguez of a hit and an RBI and first basemen Casey Kotchman was nothing short of outstanding). 10-6 was the final, but it wasn’t even that close. The Bombers fell another game behind Boston who beat the Rangers last night.

Johnny Damon looked terrible in center field and left the game early with cramps in his calves. Damon is not in the line-up this afternoon.

Meanwhile for the first time in a long time, The Boss speaks, un-cut.

As for today’s game, no better time than the present for the Yanks to turn their luck around against the Angels. I’ve got faith. Bombers will roll today.

Heaven Help Us: Let’s Go Yan-Kees.
