At nomaas.org you can take a look at the screenshot that screwed the Yankees last night. That "stolen base" by Willie Bloomquist eventually led to the tying run, costing Matt DeSalvo a victory in his Major League debut. Adrian Beltre broke the tie with a solo home run off Rivera in the 9th. Just for the record, Beltre would not have come up to bat had Bloomquist been called out at 2nd.

DeSalvo was excellent in his debut. After allowing a run on two hits in the first, he settled down, allowing only one hit in the next six. He finished the game with a line of one run on three hits in seven innings. He gave us probably the third best start of the season by a Yankee, after Wang's and Hughes' last starts.

The bullpen got only two innings of work and they weren't too bad. Bloomquist came around in the 8th to tie the game at 2 on a bloop single by Kenji Johjima. And while Mariano might be the media's 2007 version of last year's A-Rod, he threw one bad pitch.

The lineup for once didn't really help matters for the Yankees last night. Jeter, Damon and Mientkiewicz each had multi-hit games, but Bobby Abreu left the bases loaded in the 5th and as a team they left 10 runners on base.

Tonight the Yankees will send Andy Pettite to the mound to face the Rangers' Mike Wood in the opener of a three-game set. Game starts at 7 E.T.
