Bronx Nursing Home intramural squad falls to Seattle

The 45-year-old Roger Clemens showed his age again last night, lasting only 4 innings while getting pounded by Seattle for 5 runs and 8 hits. He won't make his next start due to general old man aches and pains.

And boy was it fun watching Mike Mussina (7 hits, 2 runs in 3.2 innings) come out of the bullpen for mopup duty.

The funny thing is that he'll probably take Clemens' place in the starting rotation for at least one turn.

Now that's a dynamic duo.

With the loss, the Yankees' lead in the Wild Card race falls to 1.

And meanwhile, the Red Sox mustered 12 more runs than the Yankees last night in beating Toronto.

The Yankees fall 7 games back in the AL East, and Boston's magic number is 18.
