Greetings from Gate B7
Hello from Gate B7 at BWI, where the Yankees beat is furiously trying to catch up with the team as they’ve already winged their way to Kansas City. This afternoon’s game sees an old pal, as Sidney Ponson will be added to the Royals’ roster to make the start at the newly-renovated Kauffman Stadium. Maybe he’ll do better than Carl Pavano did yesterday for the Indians.
By the way, I’m now a believer in all the hype — the iPhone has changed my life. I can’t stop telling people about all the neat things it does, and I’ve barely had it for a couple of days now, so I don’t really even know what I’m talking about. In any event, it works better than the phone I had to crack against the Yankee Stadium press box on April 3 just to get it to turn on…
Sharing a couple of photos with you before we depart Baltimore:

I’m ready to give Pontoon the same thumping that Pavano got yesterday! DJ and Damon got shut out. But look what happened? They got picked up by others on the team! Gardner, Swish, Cano, Tex! And the ‘pen did well.
Cano’s lines from the first three games:
yesterday: 3 for 4 with a homer, a bb and 2 rbi’s.
Wednesday: 2 for 4 with an rbi.
Monday: 1 for 3 with 2 bb’s and a run.
He does not have a K yet.
