Orioles 7, Yankees 6

"I stood in the courtroom like a fool! And those two bastards smiled at me!"

--Bonasera, The Godfather

Just like I stood behind the first-deck seats at Minute Maid Park, watching that ninth-inning yellow 3 (signifying a half-inning still in progress), the one that brought the Yankees to within one, 7-6.

Watching, watching, watching . . . five, ten minutes.

Then all the inning-by-inning numbers came down, signifying the game was over.

what is the Yankees' problem with the Orioles, anyway?

Paging Washburn.

I hope the Yanks don't make anymore trades. I can't bear to see Girardi cry again. Managers don't cry.

Girardi must have graduated with honors from the Dick Vermeil School of Coaching.

But seriously, the Yanks just might trade their way into the playoffs.

Xavier Nady now a Yank, Teixeira an Angel, Ivan Rodriguez a Yank. Your move Angels. And what say you Boston?
