From John Delcos in the (Westchester) Journal News and USAToday:
[The Yankees] were crushed, 22-0 Tuesday by the Cleveland Indians, the most one-sided loss in franchise history. They were numb by the third inning, powerless to stop the Indian hitters and the cascading boos.
Quite simply this couldn't have happened to a better team. I don't just mean the Yankees as an organization--the Supreme Vortex of All Evil in the Universe--but rather, this particular team. ARod, Jeter, Matsui, Torre, et al. This supposed collection of the best of the best. Twenty-two to nothing is more than humiliating. It's an indictment of this band of gutless cowards and their fat paychecks. A score like that should never happen in baseball, under any circumstances, let alone to the allegedly greatest team ever. Rather than trying to fight back, they rolled over and died, and let the conviction become complete with a goose egg on the scoreboard. Fantastic. I'm no Red Sox fan, but I hope Boston catches them now, and one of the Western teams beats them out for the wild card. Show some heart or go away.
