How about the Yankee game today?
Get this. Yankees have 6 hits in the whole game through 8 and 2/3 innings. No runs. 2 outs in the 9th against a very good closer, Trevor Hoffman. Hideki Matsui comes up. Solo shot. Ok, so we’re down 2-1. Next up… Kenny Lofton. Great. Complainer. Injured on and off all year so far. 0 HRs. He takes Hoffman out of the park. No way.
So, we’re going to extra innings. To the top of the 12th, it is not pretty. The Padres score 3 runs when all is said and done, so we’re down 3 going to the bottom of the 12th. Score at least 3 or this game is over.
So, basically… the game is over. No way they are gonna come back now. Or you would think. Bernie, Jeter, A-Rod, Sheffield, Giambi, Posada, Sierra all did something useful with Sierra having the sac fly to win it (as a pinch hitter). Yankees win. Yankees win.
Jeter’s average is up to .247. He was hitting .189 on May 25. Now he’s at .247 on June 13. Pretty good jump right there.
