"The Yankees were booed off the field during an embarrassing 7-4 loss to the nightmare-inducing Devil Rays."
"After Derek Jeter singled to open the bottom of the first, the Yanks did not get another hit until Hideki Matsui doubled to start the seventh. The crowd of 49,673 mockingly cheered."
"Mark Hendrickson entered with a 6.09 ERA, the 96th worst in the majors among 99 qualifiers."
"Hendrickson, amazingly, is now 3-0 against the Yanks in 2005."

"Sheffield didn't play in last night's 7-4 loss to Tampa Bay, and Joe Torre said it would probably be "a couple days" before Sheffield can even return as a DH, meaning he could miss one or more crucial games against the Red Sox. 'That would be devastating to me," Sheffield said. "That would be very devastating.' Matt Lawton played right for Sheffield and went 0-for-3, dropping into a 4-for-30 slump as a Yankee. Lawton also continued to look like a below-average outfielder."

NY DAILY NEWS:
These Yankees strut around in T-shirts that say "Grind It" on the front, while the back says, "There is no trying. There is only doing or not doing."
