The Yankees hit six homeruns last night in their valiant attempt to overcome a 10-1 deficit. The prolific display of power was only the third time in franchise history that the team belted six or more homeruns in a losing effort.

Awsome display of too little too late… come on guys, get ’em today!
Things aren’t looking good lately, and I wonder if the absence of The Boss makes the team less urgent about winning. I couldn’t even watch last night.
