That Was Refreshing
Very long week for me. Just got home (after a 6-hour trip) to find that for some reason DirecTV didn't show the Yanks in HD tonight, so my DVR recorded 6 hours of a blue screen saying "Searching for Authorized Content." F you DirecTV. Oh, and someone, either my brother or brother-in-law broke my remote control while crashing at my place. Wonderful.
Anyway, I caught the last three innings on Yankee replay, which means I caught the last two innings of Pettitte's huge performance (8 innings, 1 earned, 5 hits, 1 walk, 5 Ks). The Yanks were lucky to have Pettitte on the hill tonight, his numbers following a Yankee loss are unbelievable. The Sox split a doubleheader with the Angles, thanks to Gag-ne.
Let's take a quick break from our previously scheduled recap for a few fun facts.
I would be remiss if I didn't mention Jason Giambi's two bombs. I didn't want Giambi to come back and mess with the team chemistry, or the playing time for the younger guys, but he's handled the situation like a pro and made the most of his at bats.
Letter to the Skipper:
Player of The Game: Andy Pettitte.

I remember when Kay said that, it was kind of funny, cuz Al Leiter just came in an shut him down for all the reasons u mentioned and a couple more. Leiter is always thinkin like a scout, and he ends up shutting down Kay like 5 times each game,haha
