Ninety-nine times out of one hundred, recapping a game is one of the highlights of my week. For a few hours, I put aside all my day-to-day worries, and focus entirely on Yankees baseball. Every once in a while, however, there’s a game that is such a clanker, where the Yankees are never even within shouting-with-a-megaphone distance, that the entire three-plus hour experience is nothing short of miserable.
I don’t know about you, but if I were a betting man, today looks like it could be that day, as the stumbling Yankees begin a series with one of the best offenses in the American League, the Toronto Blue Jays of Dunedin Buffalo (yes, I will continue to milk this joke and mock the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim until they’re back where they belong, in a Major League stadium in Toronto).
