Blue Jays 7 Yankees 2 : No Holiday In Toronto

After the miserable weekend series at home, the Yankees headed up to Toronto for the Memorial Day Holiday. Maybe a change of scenery would do them good. Maybe facing a team doing poorly would spark them. Hell, maybe the Canadian water would help….. Joe Torre called an extended hour long team meeting, addressing the team’s lack of personality, energy and passion. Whatever the manager said did not help the cause. The Yankees were downed for their fourth straight game by the struggling Blue Jays. Matt DeSalvo gave up three earned runs in the 4 2/3 innings he pitched for the Yankees. It would have been fine if the Yankee offense was hitting. They weren’t, and Toronto pitcher Dustin McGowan shut down the Yankees until he gave up a two run home run to Hideki Matsui. The Yankees looked lethargic yet again, and have now fallen 13 games behind The Boston Red Sox.
