We got this!
Posada ends this one. Book it.
Still think its Robby Cano.
Jeter
berroa. yup i sad it
I think we sign Betemit in the 7th and then comes in to pinch hit and hits a walk-off
Brett Gardner, after he pinch run for Matsui earlier in the game, will hit a game winning ground ball single up the middle
Yeah, texas’ pitching is waaay to shitty.
I don’t think it’ll be a walkoff. We’re about to score some runs.
sit down nelson
Yanks win 8-6.
as long as Coke doesn’t leave a slider up for a lefty
Phil Coke, throw strikes and you will be alright.
Hmm, tomorrow’s game is Price v. Sabathia.
How many times have two black left-handed pitchers started against each other? It can’t be that common.
Sabathia v. Willis? Did that ever happen? I don’t have the B-R insider special features. Any help, anyone?
with names ending in vowels.
i wouldnt think it had, the chances being quite small as cc was with the indians the whole time dtrain was with the fish and then dtrain was out of bb mostly when cc went team hopping
1.2 innings for ALf, I kind of like it. He’s available for our upcoming series.
WTF since when did David Murphy become Barry Bonds that you need a LHP to face him???????
Joe probably didn’t want him to go 2+
Kinda off topic, but did anyone see that there is another Jesus Montero in the minors? I did a name search on milb.com. I guess those are common names.
born in the same town 2
That’s his brother
Jay: No mames actually means like “You’re shittin me” but the Mexicans (here in Colorado at least) said its slang for “Don’t suck” if someone like cracks a joke or is lying.
no shit…
Playing ball in college with all Spanish kids, running rampant in south beach…that’s what they told me…I now trust none of the dirty slang I learned…
No they were also right, it could be used both ways
My fav. is still Melky running around the bases after a walk off screaming Mama Huevo Conio…
It’s amazing that after all the injuries, Joel Zumaya continues to sit at 99-100 MPH.
off topic kinda, but watching Broxton last night throw 99-100 was great
his guitar hero has suffered however
Speaking of reverting to the mean….Does anyone else feel this way about Melky?
HR-Happy Coke? I hope he sizzles and doesn’t fizzle
2 balls.
Bring back the Gangster.
on gameday they looked to be 100% in the strikezone. like bordelrine down the middle. wtf
nah they were high
yeah high.
Ouch
That hurt.
what?
cervelli took a foul ball off the shoulder then ear.
Ouch
what happened?

You’re like a whole new mustang!!!!
One name:
Cody Ransom
I got scare into loving A-Rod
So Cody Ransom actually was worthwhile after all…
Thanks, Cody. Attaboy.
[pats Ransom on butt]
lmao
Cervelli wants people to know he has a cannon. I like that.
Why does Cervelli have three “M” stickers on the back of his helmet?
“Mangia Mangia Mangia”.
That’s my guess.
Basta, TSJC, basta.
/dirty look
IETC.
Mama mama mama
All good Italian boys are mama’s boys!
Pretty sure he’s some sort of Latin American, not Italian.
Did Paul O’Neill just really announce that he got a text in the booth? This guy is amazing.
You didn’t hear his phone go off? It’s not like he randomly announced. He was telling us why we heard a little jingle.
What was his ringtone?
“Ridin Dirty” by Chamillionare, Martha Raddatz style?
http://blogs.abcnews.com/thewo.....e_bri.html
i liked it when he tried to telestrate on the rgeular tv and kay called ihm out on it and oneill was like, yeah I had ym son in here earlier and he was trying to telestrate on it and when it wasnt working i went, oh there youve gone and broke it now son. damn.
but he didnt say anything til then…as in, just walk away and casually whistle son and no one will know we are idiot and tried to telestrate on a regular tv and not that we broke it…haha
lol.. i missed that.. what exactly did he say?
i enjoy how coke points to the sky on every bit of contact
what is he pointing to?
the ball
the sky?
Robertson next inning? It’ be the first time he got regular work in a while.
Didn’t he just pitch last night?
Didn’t he just pitch yesterday?
Yeah, I mean regular work as in he won’t have 3 days in between innings.
You think it’s too soon? I didn’t really think about the night game day game..
We only have 3 arms available for this game, Robertson/Veras/Mo, gotta stick with Coke for next inning, no?
Yeah when I said it I wasn’t thinking about the night game- Day game..
If you’re watching on TV, please leave some descriptive comments as to what is going on. I have the MLB gamecast but we all know it isnt enough.
Nick Swisher with a real sharp line drive to center.
Here’s a descriptive comment:
Nick Swisher has a stroke so smooth, it makes wolverines purr.
Swisher works another 3-2 count.
if Kay keeps counting up every time Swisher works a full count I might actually fly back to ny and punch him in the face
Swish has looked good man.
Break the tie, Teix.
Well hit ball, and the Yankees have the lead-off man on 1st.
yet another 3-2 count
NICK SWISHER full count again?
Here comes the pitchout.
Worse.
Because this is how baseball works, ARod will win the game this inning. Then the boo birds will have all ticket priviledges revoked and forced to sit in full Yankees gear at every Red Sox game. Those who survive will be allowed to come to the stadium and watch the game at a local bar.
I wish. I think people who boo any player in pinstripes (even whats his name with the 21) should be thrown out of the Stadium and never allowed to return. Ignorant morons.
IETC. Completely agree.
Agreed.
Booing is for the foolish and the stupid.
Booing your own team is for the foolish and the stupid.
Fixed.
Fair enough.
Really?
Is it foolish and stupid to boo when a player is too lazy to run out an infield pop that ends up being dropped?
Is it foolish and stupid and stupid to boo when your ‘franchise’ center fielder strikes out looking with bases loaded in the last inning of game seven of the NLCS?
Is it foolish and stupid and stupid to boo when your ‘ace’ walks in the losing run that causes you to lose the NLCS?
I suggest that the answer to this is NO!
On the other hand, you could make a good case that it is foolish and stupid to root for the Mets.
Brett Gardner needs to steal 2B every time he’s on first and it’s open, or he’s not really a useful ballplayer, IMO.
stealing bases is really his forte so yeah, I agree.
Aww cmon Texy…is he being booed because if so, someone needs to go there and slap everyone personally.
damn wrong place again…that’s 3 times in the past 2 days
Yeah, other than getting Swisher’s bat out of the lineup and replacing it with Gardner’s wet noodle, what did that accomplish?
What a fuckin waste of pinch-running Gardner.
yup, just took out a useful bat for basically nothing
he had to not go again
Tell me please, am I imagining boos to Teix?
That’s the thing to do these days…
Johny Come Lately.
Nope thought I heard them too. This is pissing me off.
Gardner steal a fucking base you jackass.
Freakin DPs!
Girardi over manages, I think. Pinch running Gardner for Swisher in the 7th? What about the homer Swish is going to hit in the 9th? Do you play for 1 run in the 7th? Sheesh. Don’t OAKTAG me.
Yeah, I’ve been defending Girardi all day, but I agree, I thought that was an unecessary substitution.
No I agree with you on this. Swisher’s been swinging a really hot bat lately and it’s not like he’s Adam Dunn out there on the bases in terms of speed. I’d rather Joe have waited til later to use a PR.
why pinch run here? its still only the 7th and you just gave up swishers bat..
Can we pinch hit Swisher for Gardner in teh ninghth?
If only MLB had the same rules as Cal Ripken baseball…
Which reminds me, I have to umpire in two hours. Time to make young kids cry and make grown men scream and pout.
That’s such a thankless job. I did it for one summer and spent half my time throwing coaches out
I came close two games ago. The pay is pretty damn good, though.
next time gardner pinch runs, he better go on the first pitch
Swisher isn’t THAT slow.. I figured BG would be running.
Gardy is brought in to run. But he doesn’t. I’m confounded.
Swish is getting hot at just the right time.Love how he works the count!
Too early to pull Swish? He’s been raking of late, and it’s only the 7th. Not so sure about that move, unless you make sure you let Gardner steal 2nd first.
I mean, shit, Swisher just scored from first on Tex’s double.
He’s fast enough to not be a liability on the basepaths.
That’s what I thought, the only reason to PR for Swish is too steal. It would suck if Joe put the sign on and he didn’t go again.
*to
Way to early, IMO. Swish has been swinging a hot bat and if Gardner isn’t going early in the count, what is the point? I would have rather Girardi waited it out and see if Matsui gets on base next inning. That is a man who needs someone to pinch run for him, but I guess thats when we will see Berroa if Matsui gets on.
I found that to be curious as well. If Grit is going to pinch run, you gotta have him steal 1st or 2nd pitch, and Teix has to be ready to be in the hole….
Swish’s spot wasnt a lock for an AB in the 9th
You don’t want to take the bat out of Tex’s hands by him having to swing while Gardy steals. And you’re certainly not going to bunt with Tex, in order to move the runner over (although there was already 1 out anyway).
So what was the point of the pinch-runner?
why does Tex have to swing when Brett steals? Ball could be down the middle and he’s fast enough to beat it out
I have given all my tickets away to the next few series and I am just going tell all my friends to scream STOP BOOING if any booing goes on. This has got to end. This is NOT Yankee fan behavior.
From now on no one gets tickets from me unless they’re willing to shout down the boo birds.
+1
dood!
so if i’m willing to hold up a giant sign and rotate around, directing it at all parts of the stadium, will you spot me two tickets?
I have done that before. First game at the stadium was Yanks/Sox and some guy in front of me starting booing Tex. I simply yelled at the guy, he yelled back a bit but understood my frustration for fans who do that. He then told me it was “tough love” and bought my sister and I a round of beers. He didn’t boo a Yankee for the rest of the game.
He then told me it was “tough love” and bought my sister and I a round of beers. He didn’t boo a Yankee for the rest of the game.
I probably would have said “Thanks, but I don’t want a beer from you. You’re beneath me.”
And I probably would have drank the free $8.00 beer.
+1 radnom.
TJSC, i’m disappointed…
I was considering denying it, but I can’t… I can’t refuse free beer… Just wouldn’t be morally right of a college kid who is broke.
My mom, who doesn’t follow baseball all that much, but is at today’s game with a client, just texted me asking why people boo the Yankees at their own stadium…
Followed by, “They should all be shot!”
Your mom sounds like a very smart woman.
I love your mom.
No, really.
Now that I’ve gotten over the initial sting….
I wish you two the best.
Who gave up the bomb to Kinsler?
Aceves
The Mexican Gangster.
Ouch, Rios 0-5 with 5 K’s today…
he would never do that against the yankees.
Newsflash: The Red Sox are about to move into first place after they sweep Detroit in about 2 seconds…
This game is still tied. Don’t count your chickens hater.
OMG FORFEIT TEH SEASON
Oh you’re here. I thought you’d be at the Stadium booing our players.
Newsflash: no one gives a shit. Our game is not over.
Damn, and on the final game of the season too. The Yanks suck for losing this game and the season!!!
What would the kids say?
Pwned! (?)
Axl, THIS GAME IS NOT OVER.
When we win, Boston will have been in first place for a mere matter of minutes.
What the hell? technically he’s right. They win they have one more win than us BECAUSE WE’RE STILL PLAYING.
I never said this game was over…I’m just updating the board. A scoreboard update of our rivals all of the sudden means I’m throwing in the towel, against the Yankees, and want the Red Sox to win?? I don’t get you guys…but I’m the bad guy…keep blaming everything on me…lol
They way you said it just came out wrong. I understood what you meant but you said it in a fashion that it seemed you were giving up.
It’s not that innocent comment.
It’s all the negative ones that came before it.
Your reputation precedes you, Crazy/Angry/Negative Axl.
I’m not saying I agree with the move in any way, but I wonder if Girardi wasn’t thinking that if they scored a run in the 7th he’d be putting Gardner in as a defensive replacement anyways. So why not pinch run him and slightly increase the chance of scoring that run.
I still think you send him though.
How do you know Joe didn’t?
I don’t, I’m not saying it wasn’t a bad move just as long as he also put the steal sign on
You HAVE TO send him. The move only makes sense if Gardner goes on pitch #1 and Tex refuses to swing on the pitch so Gardner can steal second.
Oh, he definitely should have been stealing, what’s the point of Gardner if he’s not going to steal.
because then you have first base open, they walk Tex and face unclutch alex
Which would be a good thing.
Baserunners are a GOOD THING.
pfft. walks clog the bases.
That may be right. However with 1 out already in the inning, and Tex at bat, I still think it was a bad call.
There weren’t any outs
Oh, Jesus. Sorry. Already trying to erase the DP out of my memory I guess.
Total waste of Swish plus it takes another power hitter out on a day when posada isn’t catching…Texas must love Girardi today!
Not all that worried about it thus far. I mean we have a lineup of Cano/Matsui/Melky/Posada/Jeter/Damon sure to hit yet.
…
I’d rather have Cervelli catch who can throw out baserunners especially against a team like Texas. Stop blaming Girardi, you do not sound smart.
You think Joe is going to let Cervilli hit with Posada on the bench?
Maybe if you shaved that douchebeard and stopped packing your lip with the entire Commonwealth of Virgina’s supply of tobacco you’d stop striking out Davis.
Nice play, Phil.
he knew his role right there with the ball coming at his head
Teagarden got Teabagged.
Nick Swisher does not teabag the ladies… he potato-sacks them.
Tony Larussa back to work.
Over managing right now. Its Andrus and Coke has looked fine. Keep him out there.
his move worked, have anything to say?
I do. Because a move works doesn’t mean its not over managing. Coke looked fine against righties and lefties today. He could have pitched 1 more batter, especially considering it was there number 9.
Here’s my boy D-rob. Let’s see if he’s got better control when he has regular work.
Way to go dude.
right down the middle (according to Gameday)
nah it was closer to the corner I think.
in what dimension is Brett Gardner a better center fielder than Melky? i only ask because our beloved manager contiually puts him in over melky…
I don’t think Joe trusts BG in the corners.
The dimensions that go over defensive statistics that prove the only think Melky has over Gardner is a better arm.
The only thing Gardner has over Melky is speed you mean?
wait, lets not forget, our beloved melky has a better bat as well
range>arm strength.
Which is why Damon is still a decent LFer.
I can’t argue with numbers. I just don;t like that BG plays shallow. Also, I’ve seen him shy away from the wall a few times.
speed > arm strength
In this dimension where Gardner is out UZR/150ing Melky 19.3 to 13.4.
In this dimension.
Melky, career CF UZR: -14.3
Gardner, career CF UZR: +16.5
Damn how could his career number be so low!?
He takes bad routes to the ball. Doesn’t judge it well off the bat, lets too much stuff fall in.
He’s much better now than he was in the past, though.
Rightfield requires more arm strength to play and Brett has better range in CF according to UZR, I think.
Nice one pitch day for D-Rob.
Tough outing so far for DRob
Sweet, now we score here and D-Rob gets the W after 1 pitch.
What a vulture.
David Robertson = Greg Jones, T.J. Duckett, and LeRon McClain
Hahah icwudt.
HEY! TJ Ducket saved my fantasy season!
Anyone see the line that Mauer, Morneau and Kubel combined for today?
9-11 9 runs, 9 rbi and 4 bb… damn!
Ee gods, brain! (not sure that’s how it goes, but you get it)
egads…NARF!
Daaaaaaaaaaamn.
What did Mauer have? I have him on one of my fantasy teams…
3-4 4 r 0 rbi
start stretching, mo
let’s hope for another walkoff, I’ll go w/ Damon getting the big hit to win it
i missed most of this game, so anyone want to recap a little bit? I see he gave up quite a few runs, but how did wang look?
Average. His velocity was there and the sinker was there, too, but he fell in love with it and lefties adjusted to it. However, he only walked 1 guy and struck out 5. It’s something to build on. His line:
4.2 7 5 5 1 5
Love it, Robbie. Love it.
Did he just draw a walk!?!?
there’s no way cervelli is getting this next AB right?
I doubt it.
Damnit boston is playing well without a sub 200 hitter in the middle of their lineup.
Cano walked! How lazy! He should’ve jogged with a HR!
Matsui JUST missed it.
wang didn’t look to great, 4 and 2/3…once he went through the lineup the 2nd time he got hit hard…he needs those secondary pitches to be able to get back to his past success…poor Hughes
Rehab starts in AAA are overrated. Ian Kennedy flourishes down there…then gets called up and looks like Sidney Ponson
his arm was probably tired though dude…he’s been throwing like 40 pitches in his relief outings…all things considered, i think he did well…and his stuff was better
it’d be nice to see the pitch f/x to confirm though
he pitches to contact. The two hits down the 3B line that hurt the most weren’t hit hard. This is going to happen to pitchers like Wang.
Is Jeter sore or hurt or can he pinch hit for one of the many scrubs Girardi started?
…for one of the many scrubs Girardi started?
See, Axl, THAT’S WHY YOU ANNOY US.
Those stupid little quasi-jabs trying to smear Joe Girardi for resting guys, even though IT’S HIS JOB TO REST GUYS.
Haha it really doesn’t bother me…
But I figured that I get blamed for posting the scoreboard…so I might as well add SOMETHING for everybody to be mad at me about…
At least THEN it would make a little sense…
The scrubs started the rally to get us back in the game stud.
LECHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
MELKY FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Clutch.
And I bench Melky in fantasy. Of course.
Haha. Melky is teh suxor!
the melkman deliversssss
Melky baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MELKY!!!
OH CRAP THOSE LAZY DOMINICANS DON’T TRY HARD AND GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they’re non-winning players
They let their laziness affect their defense too!
Hey, remember when I lead off the first spillover thread saying Melky’s looked poor lately? I take it back.
Never doubt the melkman!
suck my huevos!!!!!!
The pause by Kay scared me, even though the crowd erupted.
Who called 8-6? They are brilliant.
That would be me… but it was lucky.
Wow…. Mr. Melkman….Really making his arbitration case look good.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
MELK MAN!!!!!! Who said Melky again?
I called for the walk off, but I’ll take it.
The Melk Man!!!
WOW!
Mama Huevo Conio!!
For you John
Haha no mames
Well done.
LECHE!!
God I love The Melkster.
YAY!
wow adam lind was 5 for 5 today with 3 doubles and alex rios was 0-5 with 5 k’s. Guess that balances itself out for my fantasy team
ARE YOU EVEN WATCHING THE GAME?!?!?!?!?!
Of course. Someone’s gotta boo A-Rod.
no i walked away for a minute, then i see a bunch of suck my huevos here and realized melky just bombed. my bad
Haha I was just bustin your balls dude. It’s funny errbody was goin crazy then you’re like matter of factly droppin stats from other games.
+1
bandboxxxxxxxx
Well no need for Posada now
Nope. May as well leave Frankie in there to catch Mo.
Melky is fucking awesome, he is so insanely clutch this year.
Except for the times when he’s not
Leche es muy caliente !!!!!
I most likey buthered that but hey f it….. The Melk man delivers !!!
“Esta” would be better instead of “es” since it’s more of a temporary descriptive thing.
/hasn’t taken Spanish since 12th grade (but I got a 4 on the AP test. suck it).
no es bueno Matty
no es bueno
Oh well.
haha
no wait…. jajajaja
M-E-L…K-(E)-Y…
M-O-U-S-E….
Melky Mouse (clap clap clap)
Melky Mouse (clap clap clap)…
You could just stretch out the “a” sound at the end of k and it might work.
the melkman delivers again!
i love tex. seems like a good teammate
the MelkMan delivers!!! anyone see that vid of the Melkman w/ that pornstar, that was weird….by the way I’m new posting here..wanted a change of pace from one of the other blogs, if I’m using a regular’s name just let me know
he’s loving those peanuts
Yeah, unless you are long time poster “tampayank” then someone else already has dibs on that name.
There is actually only one username not already taken, and its “Cheeks McGee”.
Welcome aboard, Cheeks.
LOL at Tex and A-Rod in the dugout
I love Teix and A-Rod too, but are there two more nonathletic looking people slapping high five then these two?
Heh.
Tex has the funniest run I’ve seen in a while.
The cheeks get me every time.
Sean Casey riding his bicycle to first base when he hits.
They do look like a little unathletic (mostly Tex, A-rod not so much) but they are some of the finest athletes in the world IMO. A-rod is a beast as is Tex. Pretty athletic to me.
I know, that’s the irony of it all…
The trick is to focus on the other person’s elbow
what they do?
Leche … BABY !!
Burnett better get the pie ready
we dun need no stinkin pie we got thees
“I’m the pie fucker!”
“Yeah? well in prison, you’ll be the pie…”
damnnnn…mo hasnt throw since june 21st!!
sssh don’t tell him
June 21st of last year? Dam,he needs work.
forget it, i’m stupid and cannot read…june 1st
mo’s looking good for -17 days rest
i need coffee
what the fuck???
almost a year? he’s so good he got all those saves without pitching.
I take back my ignorant comment about Melky reverting to the mean!!!!!!!Guess I was just frustrated.
Is there nothing better than being at the Stadium when Mo comes in? I absolutely love it.
never experienced that unfortunately but hopefully one day I will when I go to NY
it is amazing…i try and record it every time…love the screen showing the camera from the back of him running in
I’m surprised some of these asses don’t boo him.
C’mon Mo money. Good K
mo looks hittable
rust?
Ha they don’t know which way the ball will move. He’s got the cut, the four seamer that rides up, and the two seamer. How beautiful.
papelbon turning into lee smith lately
PastadivingMelky.
Dude, gotta get in front of that one and keep it to a single.
Why?
That is a meaningless baserunner.
If anything, that situation is the ONLY time you always go for the dive. The only thing you trade is a chance for a double play for a chance for an out right there. I would take that trade.
Note: did not actually see the play, assuming it was at least a reasonable attempt.
Good try by Melky. That run doesn’t matter.
Unless teh bandbox, you know what I mean.
My fave is Mo showing pitchers and hitters how he pitches and no one can copy it and no one can hit it. There’s no secret to it.
Ah yes, thanks melk
Eh. Gotta keep yourself in front of that Melky. Oh well, not the tying run.
Who wins in a fight…
Melky Cabrera…or the Terminator…
Mariano Rivera.
UConn instant daily answer: Jeff Adrien
But in all seriousness Melvin Crousett.
mini Ditka
Melvin Croussett
That one.
shit, nelson cruz on deck
Yeah, that’s slightly concerning
I’m shakin in my boots.
haha.
MO>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Cruz
obviously, can’t argue with that
WTF didnt once try to bury Blalock inside.
Ahhhh, come on, Mo. DP ball.
what the fuck mo, don’t even think about blowin this one
How dare you doubt Mo
i was just warning him
this is not looking good for MO
cmon mo…you got this
oyy mo come on he was lookin outside the whole AB
My TV screen just went black.
same
Is Journey’s Dont Stop Believin playing?
OH NOODLES!!!! Once you go black, you never go back.
same shit here
That happened to me, too.
cervelli: throw the cutter
mo: leave me
mo: i’m not veras and you’re not posada. go clean my locker.
Mo got so lucky with that first pitch to Cruz.
Well Paul O’Neil seems to think Riveras cutter is flat here. Doesnt sound good.
wtf the i cant see the game.
Went for the fences on the first swing
Is anyone else on a frozen screen on YES?
yessssssssss
not i
Ever watch Mo and think he is out there fucking around until he has to get serious?
Just looks sometimes like he is in total control but likes to play games.
See what I mean.
He does this more often than people realize. We think of him as lights out but sometimes he’s just dawdling out there. Maybe trying to get in some work.
YES EPIC FAIL!!
Love it, one more to go
They HAVE to make it interesting…ugh
Mariano Rivera = 1
Nelson Cruz = 0
Mo always has to make my blood pressure rise…
always?
Come on, Mo. Get the last one now, even if I have to hear it on the radio.
Yeah in the package the YES feed went black, thankfully they are also showing the Texas feed which is working.
Yay, Mo! Yay, win!
Mo was just toying w/’em.
Great game, Yanks.
Way to come back and win. The Yanks take another series.
Another W, another series won.
he just wanted to make up some time for not pitching for a while
Nice W
YES WENT OFF THE AIR!!! WHAT HAPPENED!!!????
What do you think! Mo is the man, game over.
YES is still off, off here in Rochester. Can you enlighten us on how Mo got the last two outs. Thanks. Oh, no, we’re back with … the sham-wow commercial!
going to have to change the shirt after that save, MO had to earn that save
YANKEES WIN THEEHEEHEHEE YANKEES WIN
I hope the Sox enjoyed 1st place for a few minutes.
deeply satisfying win
Yanks won.
We can debate Hughes vs Wang for another week.
Everyones happy.
I love this win. HUGE win. We’ve seen now that Texas is a really good team… but we’re a better team. Bring on Tampa and the BoSox.
Haha, JoPo and Melky’s hand slap was total pansy.
/ironhorse’d
I love how YES just died with one out to go. F me.
Dont ever count us out…
Dave Robertson will definitely win THT’s “Vulture Alert” for this week.
wtf yes network
That was an awesome win. Feel like this year’s Yankees never give up on games.
but the team is so unclutch
Who wins in a fight…
Wilford Brimley or Mr. Belvadere…
I should want Brocktoon to emerge victorious in a fight with Wilford Brimley, but I shouldn’t want to cut into him, to tear the flesh, to wear the flesh, to be born unto new worlds where his flesh becomes my key.
So even you guys in NY lost the YES feed??? Or only some of u????
yeah, I’m out on the island and now have a Direct TV screen playing The Cardigans.
I lost it too
In rochester
I’m in NY and lost it.
connecticut too
I don’t know what your cable provider’s are, I have Comcast down in Jersey and YES was fine.
/Rubs it in
I have Comcast in Miami and in the MLB package the YES feed went out but not the Texas feed.
Verizon Fios.
In Upstate New York we have Time-Warner. Time-Warner sucks.
I’ll second that. My HD YES was so crisp, I could hear the cut on Mo’s pitches. Hooray Comcast.
Yeah, but you live in Jersey.
heh.. I knew I’d get that from someone.
Very nice to come up with a win. Wang got in there and although he wasn’t great he at least took some more steps to getting back. That it didn’t cost us a loss is just great.
Who would win in a fight…
Aunt Jemima or Mrs. Buttersworth
Aunt jemima, her syrup’s way better and she’s a total gangster.
Great win for the yanks, and while its probably been mentioned earlier, that 6 game suspension for Burnett is absolute fucking bull shit and really caught me by suprise.
its what Beckett got, and Beckett got it reduced to what 3 or 4 games, dont worry
beckett’s was totally uncalled for, and was done after abreu called time…burnett’s was in retaliation for his own guy getting hit…twice…granted, throwing at the head isnt good…but heck, even peter gammons said the suspension was stupid.
beckett’s throw was just an intentional as burnett
funny thing is padilla only gets fined
Ok I’m a huge loser I know, but I just threw a perfect game in RTTS and I’m actually really excited about it. fml.
Dude I got so pumped when I threw a PG w/Cole Hamels in Franchise mode in ’08. Of course, he was on the Yankees.
heh, lopsided trades FTW
wow, just saw the melky pornstar interview video, fuckin weird as hell. what exactly was melky thinking there?
I blame A-Rod
Putz is getting his elbow examined again
Ha I love Mike Francesca criticizing Girardi for having Wang set up to pitch against Red Sox & Mets.
yet this is the same guy who said for the last 2 weeks to do a 6 man rotation to get Wang in the rotation and Joba in the bullpen.
Jesus and Garcia doing their thing…
The Big di.. I mean Unit, is pitching on mlb network for anyone that wants to see his bid for 300.
Thanks for the tip!
