Rain rain go away

Well, what can you say? At least the winning run didn't reach base via the walk.

Extra inning road games are always dicey, but you'd expect the Yanks could score more than two runs against the White Sox, who look staggeringly old. What happened to those guys?

They won, sure, but what a wretched lineup.

Carlos Quentin is a former MVP candidate, he's hitting .213. Jim Thome's hitting .250. The 2B, SS combination is hitting and .263 and .228. And Mark Kotsay, when did he get there? is hitting .232. But in the AL Central, that's good enough for a winning record, apparently.

Speaking of awful, A-Rod wowed the crowd last night with the following: 1st inning fielder's choice, 4th inning looking strikeout, 6th swinging strikeout, 9th inning swinging strikeout. Can't suck any more than that.
