A's are trying their best to give this game to the Yanks, but the Yanks are not accepting.

yep, so predictable. Yanks cant take control of the game, they had so many opportunities. Then it comes back to bite them in the ass. Doesnt it seem we throw more wild pitches and passed balls, especially in big spots like today?

this is another terrible loss, if we dont come back. I knew once Jeter, Abreu, and Arod struck out with men on 2nd and 3rd no outs, that we just possibly gave away the game. Why does Mo give up runs all the time when we're tied?

Holy shit! Rivera gives up a run and we actually came through with a two out rally. We always seem to push one through when he struggles.

I had a softball game today - so freaking hot out there and I played like crap - so I only saw up up until the 4th inning. Sounded like the game got a little crazy. I'll have to go watch what happened on MLB.TV.

Be back later with the Minor League report and Major League game summary.
