Looks like I didn't miss much against Tampa. This is going to be a tough one the rest of the way.

The Rays win today & they're tied with us for the 2nd seed playoff chase. Just what we need ANOTHER team to compete with. This is beginning to look more & more hopeless, And after only being able to score 7 runs over the last 5 games, these over-paid pricks better start earning there salaries.
 
Today's line up........

LF - Gardner
DH - Jeter
CF - Ellsbury
1B - Teixeira
RF - Beltran
3B - Headley
2B - Prado
C - Cervelli
SS - Ryan (I thought he was released)
 
Any word on Tanaka's mount session today?
 
Prado finally contributes, a two run shot Yankees lead 2- zip.
 
Cone please shut the f'k up, I really wish they would get this asshole out of the booth. A mental lapse by Prado at 2nd base to which Cone says "Well Prado has never played 2nd base before" Do some research moron, Prado has played around 250 games at 2nd base over his career.

But it still doesn't top his really dumb call a week or so back when Gardner hit a triple & Cone says...." And Gardner slides into 3rd with a stand up triple" Wait........what?
 
Between last nights game & today I feel like I'm the only one still following this team. Anyway its starting to look like ANOTHER wasted pitching performance. Greene with 10 Ks over 7 innings & once again the Yankees offense with the exception of Prado's HR in the 2nd has been no where to be found. Now in the bottom of the 8th tied at 2-2.
 
And the captain comes thru for the ten millionth time in his career and the yanks lead 3-2 in the ninth.

I was just going to post that. Now lets hope Robertson can hold onto the lead. Again though, this offense is just pathetic.
 
F I N A L L Y!!!! A much needed & long over-due win.
 
Greene has been a nice story this season, put up a good line today, yes the Yankees won even with an anemic offense. I looked in on gamecast which is not good because my computer is getting on its last legs. I refuse to watch the Yankkes Rays games on Sunshine sports because I don't like the Rays Broad cast team, Dewayne Staats and that puke of pukes Todd Kallas. Good that they won though, I've heard Tampa Bay propaganda all day. I hate the Rays from the owner down to the game day staff. Would love to see them pack up and leave here.
 
...I really have nothing else to add...but I didn't want rick to think he's the only one following this team.
 
Attendance average for the Home Town Team at the Tropicana Trash Can is about 17 K. The Yankees in town this weekend has raised the average attendance to 28K. The only other visiting team that generates that type of attendance is the Bostons.
 
...I had always thought the reason for TB's poor attendance was due to fan apathy...but I just recently read an article that said the Trop was built before the team was even formed and real problem is the location. The stadium is located at the tip of the Pinellas peninsula which makes it difficult and inconvenient for most fans to navigate...so many just stay home.
