Nothing that happens this afternoon will erase with ass-whooping the Yankees have taken these last three days. The only positives to take are 1) the Rays keep losing and are still only three games up for the second wildcard spot in the loss column, and 2) the Bombers did score at least eight runs in each of the last three games. They just need someone to actually get a few outs without giving up monster homers and putting two guys on base each inning. Here’s the lineup that will face left-hander Jon Lester:

  1. RF Ichiro Suzuki
  2. DH Vernon Wells
  3. LF Alfonso Soriano
  4. 2B Robinson Cano
  5. 3B Alex Rodriguez
  6. 1B Mark Reynolds
  7. CF Curtis Granderson
  8. SS Eduardo Nunez
  9. C Austin Romine

And on the mound is right-hander Hiroki Kuroda. If there was ever a time to get over that wall, this is it.

Gorgeous weather in New York today with no rain expected. Perfect baseball weather. First pitch is scheduled for 1:05pm ET and can be seen on YES locally and TBS nationally. Enjoy, or at least try to.
