Bad start for the Yankees

Oh well.

After all that build up and excitement the Yankees got turned over 10-5 by the Orioles last night in their season opener.

CC Sabathia struggled from the start, failing to strike out a batter for only the fifth time in his career! Even so the Yankees managed to keep it close at 6-5 until a questionable home run in the 8th broke it open for Baltimore. I think there was a strong case for Johnny Damon arguing that he would have caught the ball without the obvious fan interference, but it was never reviewed.

At least the beauty of baseball is that you haven't got long to wait until the next game! :)
