Super Six

The mustache power train continued through Yankee Stadium on Saturday as Johnny Damon became the second mustached player to hit a walk-off in as many days. The Yankees made three comebacks during the see-saw battle overcoming 5-1, 10-6, and 11-10 deficits. On his fifth hit, Damon tied the game in the eighth with a two run single but in the top half of the ninth, the most unlikely of scenarios saw David DeJesus take the first pitch of the inning deep to right off of Mariano Rivera giving the Royals an 11-10 lead. It was the first homerun Rivera had given up since August of last year. Fresh off the DL, Jorge Posada picked up Rivera and crushed a game-tying homerun to right field blowing Joakim Soria’s first save in 16 straight chances. And with two men aboard, Johnny Damon delivered the knockout on his SIXTH hit to bring the Bronx Bombers back to .500.

Mustache Power!

The Yankees were on their way to another disappointing loss with two outs in the ninth when Jason Giambi flexed his mustache at a pitch that would land in the upperdeck in right field. The memorable walk-off heroics of the Great Giambino drew flashbacks to his True Yankees moment when he hit a walk-off grand slam against the Minnesota Twins in the 14th inning of Giambi’s first year in pinstripes. Could this be the season-changing moment the Yankees were looking for to get going? We can only hope…

Joba Chamberlain made his much anticipated debut as a starter for the Yankees on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays and Roy Halladay. I guess he couldn’t draw a more formidable opponent, but with a strict pitch count, what could we really expect from this rookie phenom?
