I don't think that there is any doubt that the Yankees can hit the ball-- but just to be sure, they put on a clinic last night. As Captain X has often observed, the presence of Jeter on this team means that everyone knows they all have to play hard. Jorge Posada gets it. Lost in this win, I'm afraid, is that they were down 9 runs in the second inning. Forget about replacing Shefield or Matsui-- this is a team that has one starting pitcher. Mad props to the bullpen for pulling it together, I suppose, but yikes, stripes. They are going to have figure something out, fast.
