After an angry George Steinbrenner said Sunday he was "bitterly disappointed" that his team was "not playing like true Yankees," the Bombers made an unmistakable statement with a 13-run second inning against Tampa Bay last night.
It was the largest run production in an inning ever by the Yankees at home, and the final result was 19-8 after the Bombers took a 13-0 lead. Tino Martinez drove in five runs in the second - four on a grand slam into the right-field seats and A-Rod had 5 hits and drove in 6.
Still, it's not all good news. Jaret Wright gave up 11 hits and 8 runs in only 5.1 innings. That's no good. right? |
