Last Night's Action: Separate Weather Systems?

2006_04_syankeeslogo.jpgThe most important game involving a local baseball team was rained out on Thursday when Staten Island's decisive Game 3 against TriCity was postponed. It will be played on Friday, weather permitting, to decide the NY-Penn League championship.
-Yankees 7, Devil Rays 4: In The Show, they play through the rain. Either that, or it wasn't as bad in the Bronx as it was on Staten Island. In any case, the Yankees came from behind to beat the Devil Rays. No one should be surprised that the Yankees won with an outfield of Kevin Thompson, Bernie Williams and Aaron Guiel, but people should be pleased with Hideki Matsui's upper-deck home run. If he's healthy in the playoffs, the already-potent Yankees lineup becomes even more daunting for the opposiing pitcher.

Because clearly a major-league Yankees game when they're in the middle of a playoff hunt - and trying to eliminate the Red Sox - is not nearly as important as a minor league Class A postseason game.

Tri-City? Who? Where? I don't know about no three city teams. What three cities? Someone Google this for me, I'm lazy.

The Capital District in New York, – Albany, Schenectady, and Troy – were once known as the "Tri-Cities." (per wikipedia).

I would argue that today these add up to 2/3 - 1 city.
