Coming together?

Burnett should have pitched the 8th, no question.

Weirdest moment of the night was Michael Kay calling Johnny Damon's solo home run, making the score 3-2 Angels. He made it sound as if the Angels had just taken the lead. What I wouldn't give sometimes for biased announcing, like every other team has.

Otherwise, I watched nearly an entire Yankees game (I tuned in in the 2nd - went to bed in the 9th) without yelling, sighing or freaking out in any way, even while they were losing. It was a nice change.

It was nice to see good pitching, big hits and timely hits.

What isn't nice are the rows and rows of empty seats at the Stadium. Mohegan Sun's bar was full though.

John Flaherty "grind it out" and "not do too much" counts are at 1 each.
