I am so strangely elated with tonight's win. Let's hope Andy has a great year and comes back for another.

Andy for saving the pen.
Gardner for a good game. Even though I've been hard on him most of the time.

[groovitude]

TH: Andy Pettitte -- Just Pettitte, and forget it!
HM: Brett Gardner, Fastest Show on Turf.
HM: Johnny Damon - Air current? I don't need no stinkin' air current!
HM: Bruney and Mo, for lockin' the door behind Andy.

Special props go out to Mark Teixiera, Jorge Posada, and Robinson Cano -- all of whom made cool plays (the Tex/Po double play, and the hilarious Cano rundown in the ninth, which Cano bobbled but kept in front of him).

Just some notes here as well.
Only the Jays and Mariners have fewer losses in the AL than we do.
In games we have played that Wang (and I am not picking on him, but facts are facts) we are 8-3. Of those three non-Wang losses, one was CC's poor opening day start.
The other two were the game we blew in KC for Joba and the game where CC gave us a good battle against Cle to a 1-1 tie and then our pen imploded.

In other words, when we get a decent start, we are nearly impossible to beat.

Well that makes sense. And we're doing it without Alex and with half a Matsui and no Nady... so I guess that means that pitching really does win games!

we've also been scoring late in games too.
