Yanks desperately need to win at least 2 of these games -- highly unlikely they will.

Rice still at DH

Volpe starts post-ASG push on bench.

Did the ASG break kill the Yank's momentum?

Over / Under: Outs by Cole, 16.5

Had a bad feeling when Cole walked Betts. Should have brought in Headrick to face Muncy. Much better match-up lefty on lefty. Oh well too little too late as they say.

it was a game that was lost

not a game in which one team was clearly better than the other.

the Dodgers are, at present, the better team

not a team that's a whole lot better,

just better.

who are the starters for tomorrow?

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
