Mo!

Mariano had to get a 5 out save, but the Yanks finally beat Burnett, 2-1. It was another pathetic showing by the O, but Carl Pavano gave them 6 innings of 1 run ball and got the win. It was quite a surprise as was Girardi's use of the pen tonight. He removed Pavano after he had thrown 72 pitches threw 6. Then he went Bruney to a righty, and Marte to two lefties in the 7th. Then he had Veras start the 8th. Veras gave up and double and walk, so Girardi called in Edwar. Edwar K'd the batter he faced, then with one out in the 8th, he removed Edwar and brought in Mo. Mo got a one pitch grounder and a 4 pitch K to end it. Then he worked a one hit 9th for the huge save. They're not quite dead yet. Go Yanks.
