That smirk by Verlander was pretty funny to watch yesterday.
If you didn't see it, A-Rod hit one of those "new house homers" that just barely made it over the wall in right, one row beyond the outfielder's reach. As A-Rod trotted, Verlander made quite a face, a smirk that that aimed at telling the world that A-Rod's homer really wasn't fair.
So the Yankees went ahead and got another run. After a single and a double, Melky got an infield hit that put the Yankees up by two to stay. Verlander can go home now and practice that smirk in the mirror so the can get it right next time, maybe in the playoffs, when he leaves one out over the plate again for a Yankee power hitter to CHEAT by aiming for the right field seats.
What really should have wiped that stupid smirk off his face was CC, Hughes, and Mariano shutting his team down and Jeter's spectacular play in the ninth inning that sealed the series win by a 2-0 score so far.
Oh, and Boston lost. Yanks are 2 back.
