If not for the sloppy play by an underachieving and overmatched team, they would have taken that game. They had several opportunities against Leiter in Sunday's game, too, but failed to put anything together. (I keep hoping that Leiter will revert to his form with the Marlins earlier this season. He gets into deep counts, puts a lot of men on base, but almost always seems to dance away from it all unscathed. Grrrr!)<BR/><BR/>But the Yankees, feeling the heat, seem to be back in "Late-Inning Heroics And Dramatic Come From Behind" mode as the season is winding down, while opponents such as the Royals, who could try to play spoiler, fall into "Roll Over And Die" mode.<BR/><BR/>If it's any consolation, I see that the Red Sox now have a three-game series at home against the D-Rays. The Indians host the Tigers for three games. The A's wrap up their series against the Orioles tomorrow, then head to Anaheim for a three-game set.PizzaBagelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03004867496946912982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444276.post-1125276421509022022005-08-28T20:47:00.000-04:002005-08-28T20:47:00.000-04:00Should be interesting to see what happens to the Y...Should be interesting to see what happens to the Yanks when they run into the M's rookie phenom, King Felix. I'd love to see the kid put the NY braggarts in their proper place.<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to the Oakland series as well. The A's are hot again...they won't roll over.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
