Shelling Schilling

Not that tonight's Yankee's 8-3 win over the Sox is any reason to start crowing (still 9.5 games behind, folks; still 3 games below 0.500), but it does at least make a case for cautious optimism. Let's hope we don't have to wait for mid-July, 14.5 games behind, to see the Yankees start to turn things around--because history is not bloody likely to repeat itself.

Nevertheless, the virtual hat's off to Derek Jeter on a career milestone. Bring on LA.
