Silver Streak: Tribe-Yanks Gamer V

Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor starred in one of the funniest movies of my lifetime from my perspective at age 7-14 until I saw Strange Brew and also discovered Python and Douglas Adams. Oh, I'm definitely low-brow. I remember Silver Streak well because it was replayed on cable 326 times per month after my parents sprung for 57 channels with nothing on when I was seven or so. That and I had a crush on Jill Clayburgh.

Quote, each time George Caldwell jumps, falls, is thrown or is pushed off the train: "Son of a bitch!"

Word.

The Yankees are a streaky team. Lose three to the Tigers. Win three from Seattle. The Tribe comes to town having scored 12 runs to the Yankees' 13 in their split of four games at the Jake. Fausto Carmona is on the mound for Cleveland while the Yankees send Andy Pettitte in the first of three games at The Stadium. Tomorrow it is uber-ace Cliff Lee facing Wang (what a matchup) and Thursday sees Byrd against Mussina. Here's your place to comment on today's game, the series, Life, The Universe, and Everything.
