1999 Yankees Diary, September 1: September starts with a stinker in the Bronx
Briefly

The Yanks almost opened the scoring in the second. But...Olivares buckled down and stranded Davis...It was a terrible waste of the rare Davis triple.
Reigning American League Rookie of the Year Ben Grieve proved to be Clemens' undoing. First, a Grieve double...Then, in his next at-bat against Clemens, Grieve again brought home two runs.
Roger Clemens was pitching. The bad news? Roger Clemens was coming off a fantastic start. And in 1999, that meant he was almost doomed to follow it up by laying an egg.
