Damon

15 August 2009

Jeter, Damon, Cano, Posada, Swisher and Matsui all coming up with doubles, triples and HRs at various times on a daily basis. This was very much like '61 when Johnny Blanchard, Elston Howard, an ageing Yogi Berra and Moose Skowron all hit over 20 HRs and Howard hit .348 IN ADDITION to Mantle and Maris's combined 115 HRs. And, yes, the pitching has jelled beautifully.

A case can be made for Matsui but I do not think that there will be more than 5 Yankees.

Big win for the Yanks today, following last night’s loss.  

Darrell Rasner had another solid, 6-inning outing and notched his second win in as many starts. 

Kyle Farnsworth helped get out of a jam in the 7th and Joba looked great in the 8th and Mariano looked the same in the 9th.
