Rob Thomson didn’t much enjoy his change to manage as the Rays belted the Yankees. Kevin Devaney Jr. has the story.

After a rough offseason, Andy Pettitte makes his debut today. This notebook also has word on some suspensions and a lineup switch.

    Why hasn’t anyone pointed out the fact that Hideki Matsui should have caught that ball in the 8th inning and if he had, the complexion of the game would have looked very different. Sure, LaTroy and Farnsworth layed eggs, but in my opinion, Matsui is just as culpable.

    Agreed. If Mats catches that fly, it’s a 1 run inning. And a lot of the hits that inning were bloops and few few soft ground balls. I won’t defend Hawkins, but he didn’t pitch nearly as bad as the result.

  3. cool on your island

    Safe to say that last night’s loss was a group effort: ineffective start by Kennedy, sleepy offense, rusty left fielder, impotent relief by Hawkins and Farnsworth.

    On the bright side Abaladejo and Ohlendorf looked good.

    Hopefully Petite gives them a good start.
