I still flinch when Jason Giambi comes to the plate. It's something that I can not control, and probably no doctor could fix. But the medicine I need to shake off this disease of seeing a .256 AVG or below player come to the plate was obtained last night.

Jason Giambi drove in the winning runs when he hit a 2-run single off of Braden Looper of the Mets to take the game 5-4.

The quote of the game came from Torre when taking Randy Johnson out of the game after 6 2/3 innings pitched. "He wanted to finish the inning," Torre said. "I said, 'It's the second trip, so I can't do anything about it. I'd love to leave you in, but I can't do it.' I was glad he let the ball go."

Play of the game was of course Jason's 2 run single, followed by Tino working a walk to start off the inning. Torre just replaced Russ Johnson with Tino as a pinch hitter.

An interesting note is that the last 2 games the Yankees have won both come from when Randy Johnson pitched and the Yankees came from behind to take the game.

An important series starts tonight in Baltimore. Carl Pavano (4-6) takes on Daniel Cabrera (5-7) at Camden Yards. Starting time is 7:05pm EDT.
