Games 129-130 - Night & Day

May 24-25 at Yankee Stadium in Bronx, NY
ESPN

What a difference a few hours makes.

The Yankees followed a 5-2 loss to Texas on Sunday, a third straight defeat to Texas in which the visitors scored 30 runs, with a 14-1 drubbing of Kansas City Monday afternoon.

In the finale of the Texas series, New York scored twice in the first and then were held scoreless over the final eight innings. Monday, the hosts sent 13 batters to the plate in the first and hit three home runs (Chase Headley, Brett Gardner & Brian McCann) and hit five home runs in the game (Stephen Drew & Slade Heathcott's first major league HR in the seventh) to snap a six-game losing streak that seemed like it began in early-May, 1977.

* Nice start for Nathan Eovaldi, who allowed one run in seven innings. Not a nice start for Jeremy Guthrie, who allowed 11 earned runs in just one inning of work.

I'm sorry, what was that?

Curt Schilling's got something to say about Bob Welch:

"Tell you what kind of guy he is: go to his house, propping up the garage door? His Cy Young award."

I have no idea what kind of guy this is.

* Why does the garage door need propping up?

* There's nothing else Bob Welch could've used in this situation?

* I don't like the word 'propping'
