Ex Met Mike Piazza had an RBI single in the first today, as Oakland beat the Yankees 5-4. It was his sole hit for the day, his 16th for the season.  He's also had 8 runs and 3 RBI's as the DH for the A's.  Not helping the Yankees in their loss, former first baseman Doug Mientkiewicz who ended a streak of 24 at bats without a hit by getting a single, only to be caught at home trying to score on a wild pitch.  Dougie is now batting .138.

At least Dougie will always have that Red Sox WS baseball controversy for people to remember him by, since his time with the Yankees seems like it be even less memorable than his time with the Mets.  Maybe he's just trying to become one of the least popular NY firstbasemen of all time.

In related news, the Yankees added Mike Mussina and Carl Pavano to the DL.

And everyone was concerned about our rotation? The Yanks are a few injuries away from having to start Andy Pettitte every other game.
