Despite the fact that I'm a Mets fan, I stayed up last night to watch the Yankees lose to what should have been a shell-shocked Angels team. The Angels lost their starter in the 2nd inning and were already up against the wall 2-0 when they decided to collectively say "Screw the Yankees" and pulled out the win with the help of some incredibly clutch pitching by a rookie, some really crappy fielding by the Yankees, and the total absence of A-Rod and Hideki Matsui from professional hitting. The Yankees left an incredible 11 men on base, 8 of them on during Matsui's 0-4 outing. Wasted were surprisingly good pitching by the Randy Johnson in relief and (no surprise) clutch hitting by Derek Jeter.
I had picked the Angels in 4 anyway, so maybe I'm not that surprised.
