Nice start Yanks!

Yea, hopefully they continue the scoring, unlike last night when they scored in the first and that was it.

Wow Abreu sure becomes a terrible fielder when that wall shows up, doesn't he?

Greg Cohen said...

Yea, he really is. I don't think he could of caught that first one, but the ball Cabrera hit was very catchable.

that was the ballgame. They're not going to come back after blowing that bases loaded opportunity.

Greg Cohen said...

Yea, you're probably right.
