Last Night's Action: Don't You Know?

Photo by Bill Kostroun/AP

Yankees 5 Chicago 2 (10 Innings) The Yankees blew a 2-0 lead, but recovered thanks to a homer from Robinson Cano. Derek Jeter homered to lead off the game and Johnny Damon hit a solo shot in the third to put the Yankees up 2-0. But, C.C. Sabathia tired in the seventh and the White Sox would have taken the lead, if Nick Swisher hadn’t thrown out a runner at home. The game kept going tied at 2 and neither team scored until Cano blasted his three-run homer in the tenth.
Cubs 5 Mets 2: The Mets’ bullpen blew a very effective start from Patrick Misch. Misch pitched seven strong innings, allowing only one run and five hits. And, thanks to a Fernando Tatis double, he would have earned a win. But, Brian Stokes gave up four runs in the bottom of the seventh and the Mets couldn’t make up the difference.
Off the field, the Mets are thinking about letting Jose Reyes have surgery instead of attempting to comeback this season.

Oh boy, they BLEW a WHOPPING 2-0 lead!?!? How shocking!!!

We know you guys hate the Yankees, but they are in fact the best New York team at the moment, so how about being a little less obvious?

I can't want to see your dismissive article when they make it to the World Series.

I thought the consensus on LNA was that we hate the Mets.

They're hated almost equally, highly dislike is a better term, hate is too mean, with the Yankees slightly ahead.

So what's with the picture? Was it Aaron Kay night, or were they shooting a gay porno?

Players who hit walk-off HRs have been getting the pie-in-the-face treatment from AJ Burnett this season.

Cool, have Mr. Burnett send the royalty checks to: Aaron Kay, c/o the Yippie Museum, 9 Bleecker Street, New York, NY 10003.

Thank you.

He's called PATRICK Misch now, I suppose that's what 7 innings of one run ball will do.
