Result:
LOSS

How often do you get the New York Yankees and their offense as an undrdog with a pitcher that went 14-9 last year with countless awards and experience underneath his belt in Mike Mussina. Sure it can be said that Harden and the A's have a steadfast pitching staff - yet, the Yanks faced their ace yesterday and ended up finishing the games with 15 runs as they won 15-2. The Yanks with their dynamic offense now face Harden and Oakland's bats which have continued last year's problems in lack of offense and run production. It is true that Harden had a stellar era last year of 2.63 - yet, when he faced the Yanks twice last year he gave up 7 runs in 10 innings and lost both decisions 0-6 and 4-9. Now, the Yanks with Johnny Damon and ohters in the lineup look to continue their hot streak. Thus, given the offense of the yanks and the rarity that we find them as a dog as well as their prior success with Harden, well ride the Bronx Bombers here as the dog.
