Adam Warren had some good stuff last night. The strong bullpen remains strong. The offense is still scoring runs. It feels good.
Before yesterday's game, the Yankees and the Rays were tied for first place in the AL East, which totally matters in April. The point is that the Rays were coming into Yankees Stadium hot, playing very well their last five games. The Yankees put a stop to that, ending their five game winning streak and propelling themselves solely into first place which, again, totally matters in April. I cannot stress that undeniable (okay, slightly deniable) fact enough.
