About Last Night

The Yankees are once again at .500.

Sooner, rather than later, they will have to figure out a way to get over the .500 hump--and stay there. Last year, this didn't happen until July, but the team had to stretch in the second half just to make the post season.

Last year's turning point, almost anyone will tell you, was the "hah" game.

This year's turning point may very well have been yesterday's game. I didn't catch it--I was at the shore with a close friend--but I read the recaps and saw the highlights. Games like that don't come along often, and when they do, they can be a springboard.

Hopefully, the Yankees will use the springboard to their advantage.

More after tonight's game.
