The Yankees lost a game, 2-1, in which they received an 8 IP, 1 ER start from The Rocket and committed 5 errors. In what was likely his final appearance of the first half (seeing as the Yankees are up 10-0 in the 5th on the Angels as I write this), Mo faced 8 batters over 2 innings. The two that reached were Orlando Cabrera (on a single) and Gary Matthews, Jr. (on Miguel Cairo's error - one of his 3 on the day). The Yankees would lose it when a Miguel Cairo error allowed the go ahead run to score in the top of the 13th and we were then unable to score Cairo from 3rd with 1 out in the bottom half.
Mo's ERA is now down to 3.71, the lowest it has been since April 14, when it was 0.00.
