SOX WIN! First Place!
I'm liking that Timlin/Foulke/Pap 1-2-3
WFAN Yankees Beat Reporter Sweeny Murti is reporting that the Yankees FO have a very bad feeling that Gozirra is out until 2007. I respect the hell out of Matsui for managing to get the ball into the infield after that gruesome break. Big loss for the Yanks. He is one of the most clutch hitters they have.
Buster Olney suggests that the Yanks will go after Bobby Abreu and Torii Hunter. The Phillies are only 2.5 GB in the WC and 3.0 GB of the Mets and Abreu leads the team in runs scored. Hunter is more of an option with his high salary and because the Twins are so horrible.

WEEI's local post-game talk continued past midnight so JT The Brick was joined in progress about 12:45 am. I didn't want to miss an opportunity to hear that big Yankee fan rant about his team losing; I knew WBAL (AM 1090, Baltimore) carried the show too, so I tuned in for a moment. He lamented the loss of
Matsui, of course--and said "So, the Sox and the Yankees are tied in the loss column" or something like that.
He could not admit Sox are in first! Last week I think the Sox are Yanks were tied though the Sox had one more win AND one more loss than the Yanks,and JT said, "The Yankees are ahead in the loss column". Way to spin it JT!
