...we should have rooted for the hurricane. Burnett's performance was so bad, even three homers for the Bombers didn't make me feel any better. After the game, AJ was quoted as saying, "I can't concentrate on the numbers." I wish he'd concentrate on something, 'cause I'm pretty sure it isn't pitching. No more games until we wait for the rains to pass.
The Yankee's ability to draw fans in the opponents stadiums has hurt them again. The Orioles refused to give up a lucrative play date with the Yanks, forcing NY to lose one of the two off-days they have left in the rest of the season.
This is very hard to believe, in fact, I looked it up in a couple of different places to verify it. On Wednesday, 8/24, the Florida Marlins hosted the Cincinnati Reds before a "crowd" of 347 people. They must have thought AJ Burnett was pitching.
