Mariano's Farewell, Bittersweet in Painful Yankee Loss!

Awesome ceremony  for the Sandman. Metallica playing live at the Stadium.  Andy pitching his last home game! Packed, full house. And yes, a big  game against the Giants.
   Pitcher's duel all the way. Andy perfect for the first 14 batters. All comes down to the bottom of the ninth. A-Rod singles. Since he can't run , he's replaced by Almonte, a call up. Who woulda thought that his  horrible decision to try to score from third on a hot smash to the third  baseman  would cripple the Yankee rally and a chance for " extras"?  Heartbreaker!
 Well, they're mathematically alive and still a reason to watch the Rays' series.
 Mariano, Andy...Thank you!!!
