Bottom of the 9th

It's the Yankees last chance. They need seven runs. Matsui, Williams and Posada will try to get on base.

Update: Matsui does his job and leads off with a single.

Update: Williams forces Matsui, one out.

Update: Posada pops out. And the season comes down to Kenny Lofton.

Update: Yankees fans have to be asking themselves, "Where's Calvin Shiraldi when you need him?"

Timlin walks Lofton and Francona pulls Timlin. With two on, it's now up to Olerud to keep hope alive. He'll face Embree.

Update: Sierra pinch hits for Olerud.

bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, changing pitchers and they go to commercial????

Well, sounds all too familiar for the past three games, pop-ups, ground outs and walks. If your pitchers don't pitch and your hitters don't hit you won't win any games, even if you're the Yankees - sheer agony.......
