Yankees Fall to Rangers Late

Mike Mussina three a wonderful game as he was reaching seven wins.
The Yankees score early with a run in the second and the fourth. He left the game after allowing two runs on 105 pitches while striking out six.
Rangers managed to hit in a pair of runs in the eighth off unsteady reliever Kyle Farnsworth as he took the loss.
Robinson Cano batting in the fifth spot was the owner of both Yankees runs.
Farnsworth, along with the rest of the bull pen, Rivera excluded, have been very inconsistent and putting the Yankees in a lot of trouble. What has happened to the Yankees pitching? Age and quality. Only four pitchers are worthy of being called Yankees, Shawn Chacon, Chein-Ming Wang, ace Mike Mussina and closer Mariano Rivera. Johnson had been flaky for a while, Proctor, Sturtze, and Farnsworth are not meeting up to expectation. Yankees need to play the trade market quick and play hard if they even want to think about playoffs. You don't hope to make the playoffs with luck, you make it by taking a lead, and holding onto that lead. If the relief can't hold on to the lead, get rid of them.

Final Score:
Yankees 2, Rangers 4

Up Next:
Rangers @ Yankees
Shawn Chacon (4-1, 3.68 ERA) vs. John Koronka (4-1, 3.65 ERA)

Red Sox Update:
Rain delays heat up the Sox bats, win over the Orioles.
