That was bad on so many levels, but the fact remains that it was only one game.  Yes, Sabathia and Teixeira sucked, especially when it counted, but again it was one game.  I am amazed at the papers this morning and all the fur flying about how badly CC and Mark played.  Did I mention it's only one game?

Now, if Sabathia gets pounded Saturday and Teixeira comes into his Yankee Stadium debut with a .127 average, you might have the start of something to talk about, but for now let it be.  I found some other things in the game far more interesting.

Posada looked good at the plate and miserable with the glove.  Maybe he forgot how to catch while he was hurt, but some of those wild pitches should have been passed balls.  

Bruney and Coke had rough games, but Albie looked good.

Matsui hitting that home run was good to see.  They will need his bat this year.

Cano walked twice, a very good sign and turned a nice double play when they needed it.  

Anyway, one game down, 161 to go.
