My roommate (MTA Ray) and I used the firm's primo tickets for the second time this season to visit the Yankee Club Restaurant at Yankee Stadium.
While enjoying lunch in the air conditioned Yankee Club and watching the first couple of innings on closed caption TV, it was time to sit in the primo Stadium seats. They are close to the field but not lots of leg room like the bleachers where I normally sit. I unfortunately could not stay the entire game because I had to go to work. I left after three innings when the Yankees were down 4-2. Jared Wright didn't have the right stuff when we really needed him.
By the time I got to work, the Orioles widened their lead and unfortunately won 12-2. Going into Boston on Friday with only a 1.5 game lead and one game in hand, I am stressed for the five game series over four days. Fingers crossed and saying the prayers and eating the vitamins for a successful trip to Boston.
Go Yankees!

P.S. The Mets helped their cause by beating the Phillies. I am less concerned for them as they still have a double digit lead but I am still praying for Pedro's recovery.
