And The Band Played On....

From George King:

After sliding in and out of the Carl Pavano Memorial MRI tube late yesterday, Roger Clemens attended Alex Rodriguez's Labor Day bash at Rodriguez's rented Rye mansion on the water he has an eye on buying if he remains a Yankee.

Considering how the day went, A-Rod's gathering should have been held in a morgue following a lifeless 7-1 loss to the reeling Mariners in front of 54,522 at Yankee Stadium.

The Yankees have lost eight of 14 and three of four and it's not hard to find a reason: When Pettitte or Wang don't pitch, the Yankees rarely win. In the last nine games started by their top arms, the Yankees are 8-1. Across a 13-game stretch in which others have been given the ball, the Yankees are 3-10.

I wonder if they played Nearer, My God, to Thee at the party?

Do you think Carl Pavano even reads anything Yankee related anymore? I'd think he'd just cry himself to sleep every night if he did.

"After sliding in and out of the Carl Pavano Memorial MRI tube late yesterday..."
