Jolly Old St. Nick showing off his vertical jump after hitting his home run!


With a beautiful throw from Gardy, Jorge is able to get the tag down in time to get the speedy Adam Jones!

Orioles can't hold late lead, lose to Yankees.

The Yankees were able to put enough runs on the board last night, winning 7-5 over the Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Nick Johnson carried the club, going 3-for-4 with a home run and 2 RBI. Entering the game while tied, David Robertson held things in check long enough to earn his 1st win of the season, firing off 2 innings while allowing no runs on 1 hit in relief of C.C. Sabathia.

Nick Johnson took some questions from reporters after the game. He said "Our motto around here is never say die, and we did just that today folks."

The two teams wrap up the series tonight at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, with probable starters being Roy Oswalt (0-2, 4.50) for the Yankees and Brad Bergesen (1-1, 4.70) for the Orioles.
