Whodathunk Godzilla would be taken out, not be Mothra, King Kong, or some other mutated monstrosity, but by balky knees? Joe Girardi said today that Matsui can only pinch hit for the time-being, according to this article from the AP.

What Happened
The Yankees got their first victory in the new Yankee Stadium, with Derek Jeter providing the winning margin in a 6-5 contest with an 8th inning solo homer.

Rodriguez took full batting practice [...]
[image title="3450455600_cdf1b1d1f6" size="full" id="2704" align="right" ]I had a blast yesterday. I was lucky enough over the weekend to score some very nice tickets for the first game at the new stadium. It did not disappoint.
However amazing you have tried to imagine the new stadium, its better. It has the look and feel of old [...]
