There's no joy in Bronxville, or anywhere else in the five boroughs for that matter, the morning after the defending World Series champion Yankees lost the fifth and deciding game of their division series 4-3 to the Cleveland Indians. The win puts the Indians in the American League championship series for the second time in three years, this time as the underdog to the Baltimore Orioles.

Meanwhile, the biggest game of the NFL's young season turned out to be a laugher, as Denver beat New England 34-13 to remain the league's only unbeaten team.
