Go Yanks!
With one exception, yesterday was a great day for New York sports fans: The
Giants beat the Jets, and the
Yankees came from behind to beat the Indians. What a game! Roger Clemens came out and looked like he was going to blow yet another playoff game—Clemens is strangely bad in such situations—but then his hamstring gave out, and rookie Phil Hughes came on to pitch brilliantly. Johnny Damon hit a Yankee Stadium left-field homer, and the Yanks were off to the races.
Two more to go ...will Mike Mussina come up big? Or will he be the Mussina that went through a disastrous mid-season collapse which saw him yanked from the starting rotation?
All who believe in the triumph of good over evil must root for New York tonight. A vote for Cleveland is a vote for Satan. And
bugs.
