Meh. Their hired, obese gun did a great job tonight. Note: It wasn't a blowout, they just tacked on a bunch when the game was over.After the first call where the ump looked right at an out but said safe, I was pretty pissed. But after the second one, where the guy looked right at the funniest double play of all time but for some reason only called one of the two clearly tagged...

ON THE MOUND:CC Sabathia's second gem of the series was enough to do away with any momentum the Angels gained yesterday. The Yankees pounded the Angels 10-1 tonight in Anaheim to pull to within one game of the pennant. CC was once again masterful as he dominated the Angels over eight innings, allowing just one earned run on five hits, walked two, and struck out five. He had everything...
