Some victories are like some defeats, and leave you shaking your head.
Like this one. And yesterday.
This week, I've calculated that this is the weakest starting nine Joe Torre has ever run out for an extended length of time.
Matsui out, maybe for the season. Scheff just back from injury. Posada and Damon hurt. Bernie Williams looking old enough to have batted behind Joe Pepitone.
Beyond the starting nine, Shawn Chacon out. Jared Wright maybe missing a start. The Unit apparently trying to re-make himself as Jamie Moyer at the age of 42.
Tonight: the Unit gives up five runs in three innings. Manny, two homers. Big Papi at the plate, bases loaded, go-ahead run on first.
And a Yankee victory.
And: player of the game. Melky Cabrera.
Go figure.
