1) iPhones are the greatest invention known to mankind.

I’ve had mine for awhile now, but tonight it allowed me to do three things at once: eat dinner with a friend, “watch” the Yankees beat the tar out of the Indians and enjoy the beautiful view of the Santa Barbara harbor at the Endless Summer cafe.

2) Dustin Moseley knows how to pitch.

He was great tonight after some first inning jitters. Threw strikes. Kept his cool. Deserves another start for sure.

3) Cervelli has the ability to make me mad.

Memo to him: When you come up with the bases loaded and the opposing pitcher has done nothing but walk batters, do not swing at the first pitch and ground into a rally killing DP.

4) A-Rod is allowed to have fun during his chase for #600.

The guy has been an RBI machine, so people need to stop worrying about the homers. He’s helping us win – big time.

5) Scoring seven runs in one inning is what I’d like the Yankees to do over the weekend in Tampa.

Not that I didn’t appreciate the runs tonight, but I’d really like a lot of offense against the Rays. Please.

6) Chan Ho Park cannot – I repeat – CANNOT – pitch two innings.

I know. It was a laugher. But thanks to him things got a little hairy in the ninth. All those walks. Seriously. He’s okay for one inning (if nobody else is available), but not for two. That is all.

7) Marcus Thames reminded me of these in his attempt to play third.

Yeah, he’d never played there before and he was giving A-Rod a rest. But I had flashbacks of Angel Berroa. Not good.

8) The grilled mahi mahi at Endless Summer is worth checking out if you’re ever in the neighborhood.
