What Goes Up Must Come Down

The Yankees had won 9 in a row before the struggling Mets came into town. Roger Clemens had yet another credible start allowing 2 runs in 6.1 innings and striking out 8. However the Yankees offense looked like their old selves when the offense failed to produce any runs. Reyes had a career night driving in both runs including a homerun and stealing 3 bases. The good news for the Yankees though, is that the pitching still did a good job. It is ONLY the offense that has to step it up for a change. However, many predicted TONIGHT was the night the Yankees were going to lose and the Yankees would win the other 2. Well that already is not the case. Young Tyler Clippard takes on the New York Mets and although the Mets have been struggling of late, they still have the potential to absolutely DESTROY Tyler Clippard. Tome Glavine will face the extremely hot except yesterday Yankee offense. We will just have to wait and see how it goes. Unfortunately the Red Sox won last night so the Yankees are now 8.5 back in the division. The Yankees are 4.5 games back in the Wild Card. The offense didn't help 45 year old Roger Clemens but they are going to need to have one of their best offensive performances of the year this afternoon when their 22 year old is out there on the BIG stage. But the Yankees success just kept on going up. Now may be the time it goes back down.
