David Ortiz singlehandedly carries the Sawx to Victory

One night, 5 RBIs, two dingers, one in the bottom of the ninth.

Thank you, big fella.

UPDATE: Yes, our many regular readers who suffer under the disease of Yankee fandom have pointed out that Tampa Bay has the worst record in the majors. Ayy-yup. At this point of the season, a win is a win.

Yes, the Yankees play the Devil Rays just as much as the Red Sox do so what's Yankdom's point?

Oh, and Ortiz has performed the same heroics against the Pusillanimous Pinstripes in the past as well (*cough* 2004 *cough*) so the dispute is just more sour grapes.

Well, it actually looks like Bahston might actually win the division for once. When was the last time?

It also helps to have a Devil Ray misplay the very catchable ball.

Drink the kool aid, rbj---it tastes better with a smidgeon of bitters.

And join the obnoxious nation? Never. I'd sooner be a Dodger fan. Or start liking cats.

N.B.: The Yanks are only 8 and 7 versus Tampa Bay this season.
