Hooray! The Yanks clinched the A.L. East crown last night and whooped it up in the clubhouse. I watched the celebration and am left wondering if they weren't a bit overzealous. After all, it's only the division title - true, a trip to the post-season - and that's not the Yankees goal. If you're the Detroit Tigers, coming off a 119-loss season in recent years, then you can trip the light fantastic. But if you're the Bronx Bombers and you're expected not just to make the playoffs but contend for the whole shooting match, then maybe you tone it down a tad. The time to let it loose is when you make it to the World Series.

You can hear that Brian Wilson got the win for the San Francisco Giants one night and be listening to the Beach Boys Greatest Hits the next night.

Has A-Fraud reverted back to A-Rod? He's had two strong games in a row, blasting three homeruns. Is he back? Too early to tell, but if I were given a toss-up - who's A-Rod now, the A-Fraud version we've seen most of the year or John Sterling's A-Bomb version - I'd go with A-Bomb.
