Yankees lose

The New York Yankees lost to the Oakland Athletics by a score of 8-4. Starting for the Yankees was Darrell Rasner and he did not pitch well giving up 7 runs on 9 hits in 3.1 innings of work for the loss but 1 run was unearned because of a throwing error by Jason Giambi. That error seemed to have shaken Rasner in the 3rd inning. Following Rasner was Ross Ohlendorf and he gave up 1 earned run on 2 hits in 1.2 innings. LaTroy Hawkins pitched a perfect 6th inning. Kyle Farnsworth pitched a perfect 7th inning and Edwar Ramirez pitched a scoreless 8th inning. The hitting stars of the game for the Yankees worth mentioning were Bobby BYE BYE Abreu and Jason Giambi. Bobby BYE BYE went 2 for 4 with 1 run scored. Jason Giambi went 2 for 4 with 1 run scored and 2 rbi’s along with a home run.

The Disgraceful player of the game was Darrell Rasner for quitting in the 3rd inning. That’s not only a disgrace but a nightmare.
