Jason Giambi launched a blast and later a game-winning bullet, rocking the aging house for what was surely the last Yankees-Red Sox game at this Yankee Stadium. The heroics by the lame-duck former star at the about-to-be-demolished ballpark salvaged a game, spared some more bad feelings and brought rare glee. Yet, they only temporarily put off thoughts of the storied club's inevitable elimination.
"The Yankees have no chance to get into the playoffs,'' asserted one American League scout. "I watch this team, and it's just not a playoff team.''
The team with the $209-million payroll and four locks for the Hall of Fame may yet be capable of a surprise, or two. But to this point, the surprises all have been bad. The offense that was supposed to have 900-run potential has been bland and mediocre. And the defense, at once porous and careless, can't even sniff mediocrity.

The Yankees are done, they have been for months since Wang went down. At least they realized they needed a new stadium and went and built one,a s opposed to making Red Sox fans keep attending games in rat-infested Fenway!
