YESSS LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!!!!! ME AND MY BROTHER ARE OUTSIDE YELLING AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS IN OUR FIRE ESCAPE WITH EVERYONE ELSE ON MY BLOCK WITH AIRHORNS AND SETTING OFF CAR ALARMS!!!!! FUCKING INSANE!!!!
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:
Gotta give a HUGE A+ to teix and matsui, but we cannot forget AJ. He had nothing earlier but he settled down and really shut them down from that point on. Something he hasnt done all year. Great job AJ.
Wanna bet the ball 4 call for Posade becomes further evidence of an east coast/media/baseball powers that be/evil empire/we’re a second choice team inmur own town to the f-ing Dodgers boo hoo conspiracy?
All I did was see the truth and accept it. Because 2009 is not 2004, no matter how much some dour, sad, pathetic losers seem to want to make it in their tortured, twisted, fucked up minds.
except it wasnt a blown call, it was borderline and a yankee finalllllllllllly got a call. AJ didnt get anything all night, and damon got called out at first when he was safe.
I’ll admit I had some tiny doubts before the top of the 7th. Lackey was rolling, our ABs were terrible and it seemed like a big hole. Even though I never expressed my concerns here, I want to apologize for even thinking it. I would like to thank Drew, TSJC and the rest of you who unequivocally knew we had this shit.
I will do 10000 Mosanna’s in the highest as penance.
U knew soscia taking lackey out was a mistake.. but you still say he’s a great manager.
U knew the yankees were going to rock you… but you stuck with your team.
U knew Mariano didn’t spit on the ball… but you believed the lies.
This isn’t 04, or 05; this isn’t freaking Randy Johnson and Kevin Brown….
I mean, I understand Mathis is a scrub and all, but when are we going to stop throgin him fastballs? (Although it won’t matter because he only has one at bat left this season.)
Between the fawning over his defensive prowess (you wouldnt need to block so many balls if you catch them cleanly, angeltard mathis) and his timely hitting, Jeff Mathis = Jason Varitek 2.0.
Helluva job by AJ after that disastrous first inning but he leaves in trouble. He is probably the most frustrating player to follow, he can be so good, and so bad in such a short time span.
aj was at 82 pitches or something and was rolling. if he had shut them down 1-2-3 would you have questioned him? obviously it seems like the wrong move now but it wasn’t before
I see what you were trying to do, get your part-time headcase #2 starter a series clinching win, but after the Game 3 debacle, din’t Mo take away all your bullpen tokens (especially the 1 out outing ones)?
So Hughes can only get lefties out according to Girardi. This is his WORST move of the postseason. Hughes and Mo should have thrown 3 and closed it out.
We should pinch hit CC for Cano. I’m not sure if I’m kidding.
Then once he gets a hit put a PR in… cause CC wont make it 2nd
sooooooooo wrong, but i love it.
everyone in here needs to give AJ his props for keeping them down after the 1st. does he get the 7th?
Yes.
start the inning. DRob and a lefty depending on the matchups warming.
+27
And give it up for the Yankee hitters for remaining patient with Lackey
Dear AJ,
Props,
Love,
HGC
PS – Props!
The 2009 Yankees >>>>>>>>>>>>>> All you idiots who kept doubting in the clear and consistent face of mountains of evidence of greatness
The 2009 Yankees >>>>>>>>>>>>>> All you idiots who kept doubting in the clear and consistent face of mountains of evidence of greatness
People NEED to see this.
Funny a couple people shut up. Except for charlespoet who acknowledged him being wrong.
YESSS LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!!!!! ME AND MY BROTHER ARE OUTSIDE YELLING AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS IN OUR FIRE ESCAPE WITH EVERYONE ELSE ON MY BLOCK WITH AIRHORNS AND SETTING OFF CAR ALARMS!!!!! FUCKING INSANE!!!!
are people still doubting you… and the Yankees?
My man TJSC, where is your confidence level at? Mines is at 28, NO DOUBT!!!
That.
BRAZILIAN YANKEE WHERE YOU AT?!
he will show up if cano or swish screw up.
He went out for Hoss avocados, I think.
Robbie will rip right here. He is due just like the two guys before him.
Way to call it
Robbie Cano, dontcha know
Keep it going, Swish
Melky started this rally.
Just sayin.
(tips his cap to Drew)
Melky is the balls.
Forgive them, Mo, they know not what they say.
Can Cano get a moment…that’s the question!
Get us some lead!
Isn’t it nice that the Yankees have 27 outs rather than the 12-18 some fans wanted?
12?
They threw in the towel after THREE.
THREE OUTS.
Actually, it was after zero outs where the manic crowd wanted Burnett yanked.
It was the bottom of the first.
lets just break it open Robbie..no pressure..
That was amazing.
Mo, forgive me for doubting.
You are forgiven. Don’t do that shit ever again.
Gotta give a HUGE A+ to teix and matsui, but we cannot forget AJ. He had nothing earlier but he settled down and really shut them down from that point on. Something he hasnt done all year. Great job AJ.
Brazilian Yankee, where you at, buddy?
Stick with A.J. batter by batter?
Officially will never doubt the Yankees again.
I’ve heard people say that before, and then go back on their word.
Don’t disappoint me, buddy. I’m counting on you.
Oh no…Cano…
Why would anyone ever doubt? seriously
Should have kept that uber-thread alive!
i can Feel the thundersticks deflating
the reverse Grady Little moment
Are they FUCKING showing ONE bad strike? FU Fox.
these boys
Please let the next comment I hear be “Robbie Cano Dont-cha-no”
wow.. timed that one pretty well..
CANO COMES TO PLAY
IM SO FUCKING HAPPY
Robbie Cano, dont you know?!
HELL YEAH, AJ CAN GET THE WIN NOW
Yes, FOX, let’s go back to that pitch to Posada where your pitch track is clearly wrong.
ROBBIE CANO!!
YES!!
6-4 !!!
HOLY SHIT!!!
CANOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH YES CANO!!!
CANOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Game
Re-donkulous!
No game 6 for you!
Just Came Back From The Movies And Came Back In time for da comeback and yesssssssssssss cano thats what im talking about babiiiiiiiiiii.
the movies, really?
Holy shit, 6 runs with 2 outs?
holy shit..
Never ever count this team out
I’m posting this again for everyone to see:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNGc9zmpK5M
Robbie Cano!
Triple machine, Robby Cano doncha know!
ROBBIE CANO WITH RUNNERS IN SCORING POSITION.
ALL YOUR BULLSHIT DEFEATIST NARRATIVES ARE FLAWED, HATERS.
FUCK YES!!!!!
Holy shit I fucking love this team.
LOL, that all happened in a hurry!
Shut those Fox idiots up~
Tex and Cano stepping up in HUGE ways!!!!! Yankees lead!!!!!!!!!
I believe in miracles.
You sexy thing!
Apologize.
http://southparkstudios-intl.m.....pology.jpg
not a miracle. But I’ll take what I can get from you.
Yay!
no you dont
It’s not a miracle. We’re just good. You can’t keep a good team down for long. I tried to tell you, but you wouldn’t listen.
Smarten up, Nas.
HOLY SHIT.
I just came.
It’s not my baby.
That’s what you said the last three times.
scioscia looks RED and embarassed to hell
Quick, do you goto the bullpen
i think we have maxed out on the AJ genie
AJ-Hughes-Mo, that’s the only people who should be in this game.
Holy shitballs MATSUI MADE IT FROM FIRST??!?!!!!!
6 run inning SO FAR. What a special, special team. I never doubted this shit would happen but I still can’t believe it.
AMAZING!
game
blouses
OMG!!!!!! I FUCKING LOVE THIS TEAM!!!!
This is the greatest manager of all time’s Grady Little moment
i said that when he was leaving lackey in for damon, but turns out it was taking him out for teix.
Good thing Posada slipped the ump a c-note for that ball 4, huh?
everyone needs to give matsui an extra pound for running on a total of 1/2 a knee
I love the doubters!
I have seen everything in my life..including Matsui scoring on from first..
ALL the fuckers who doubted, FUCK yourselves.
Pardon my French…
A hti from Swisher here would be fantastic.
YEEEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!
Freaking Cano… you finally made it!
Swisher equals inning over
I can’t wait to read the halos heavan comments.
Wanna bet the ball 4 call for Posade becomes further evidence of an east coast/media/baseball powers that be/evil empire/we’re a second choice team inmur own town to the f-ing Dodgers boo hoo conspiracy?
I can’t believe A.J. might get a win after how things starter.
Cano gives the Yankees the lead on his birthday – quite the bday gift!
Did Mike Scoscia just turn into Grady LIttle with that pitching change?
Grady was famous for the LACK of a certain pitching change
Here’s something to think about – do you go right to Hughes and Mo here?
Keep it going Swish…keep it going
Now for the Joe Girardi bullpen management…..
We can only hope. Fewest runs allowed in the playoffs.
http://www.theyankeeuniverse.com/?p=8631
All on 2 outs!
Hughes and Mo, RIGHT FUCKING NOW.
wait what? there are still 3 more frames for the angels to bat, unless you meant Aj, hughes, mo
AJ gets 1, hughes for 4, mo for 4 works for me.
yeah Mo needs to be ready for the 8th
there are plenty of days off
why is Joba up…no one but hughes or mo relieves AJ tonight…Joba is too unpredictable.
THE NINJA IS BACK!
Thats aight Swish! we got you holmes
holy shit i am so fucking happy
TSJC is such a fucking hoss and always right
All I did was see the truth and accept it. Because 2009 is not 2004, no matter how much some dour, sad, pathetic losers seem to want to make it in their tortured, twisted, fucked up minds.
Alright, let’s get this done
Angels fans will say: ump blowing the strike call gives yankees the game. i already know it
Halosheaven must be on fire right now about that
except it wasnt a blown call, it was borderline and a yankee finalllllllllllly got a call. AJ didnt get anything all night, and damon got called out at first when he was safe.
Swisher getting a hit was too much for the Baseball Gods to allow. But I’ll take that rally.
Really, you’re a Yankee fan?
9 outs away … start the countdown
id rather see DRob but i have confidence in Joba. get this done!
We. Got. This.
Y’know I’m just glad we could end John Lackey’s career with the Angels on a high note.
Hey guys Hideki sure used his head there amirite
Guys?
Guys?
best thread ever
Joba really?
Do you go Burnett until a runner on?
I had the same thought. Hughes and D-Rob need to be up before him.
That might’ve been strike three to Posada but NO WAY Molina gets that call. Molina gets called strike three on that one. I’m convinced of that.
Time for Mo to start a general warm-up and stretch a little
I was kind of pissed that you started a new thread after how good the last one was. I no longer feel that way.
So, Brazilian Yankee, where you at?
/second time
Banging his thundersticks?
donnie moore called, he wants his ability to protect a lead back
too soon?
Stupid Swisher!!!! This team can’t bring runners in!!!
/
Brazilian Yankee’d
Bring in CC, ala Randy Johnson in game 7 ‘01.
THIS IS MINE
nah Melky started.
Sucks to be the guy that made outs twice in one inning.
how does shit tacos taste mr.scoscia?
NO JOBA PLEASE!!!
I’m praying Girardi doesn’t screw this game up.
I must admit they even shock me tonight this team is unbelievable.
King Leonidas would of cut my head off for not believing but I would of deserved it.
This is SPARTA !!!!!
Why does it look like Joba is coming in? Please tell me no.
He’ll get pulled the moment he looks off.
The Yankees WILL NOT be stopped
Can we have Mo pitch a 9 out save?
You don’t trust Hughes?
I trust Mo more.
Doh, AJ still in.
Where do I sign up to eat some Cano Crow???
I’ll admit I had some tiny doubts before the top of the 7th. Lackey was rolling, our ABs were terrible and it seemed like a big hole. Even though I never expressed my concerns here, I want to apologize for even thinking it. I would like to thank Drew, TSJC and the rest of you who unequivocally knew we had this shit.
I will do 10000 Mosanna’s in the highest as penance.
I’m very suprised he got rattled that easy
Yankees + time = victory
Is it AJ back for the 7th or Joba? Who’s due up?
there you are
i knew you’d be back…
Hahaha. Like nothing happened.
“oh hey did you guys see that”
lol
Here he is! All acting like nothing really happened.
Humble yourself.
Lets goto Hughes.. dont BS
Not sure I love this Joba move.
I’m sure I don’t, but you know he’ll have a short leash.
G-D for ten outs, anyone?
5 outs from Mo, 6?
gotta give joba the benefit of the doubt guys. He thrives off energy and this is a LOT OF ENERGY.
It’s AJ – but I assume there’s Hughes and Joba getting warm in the pen
OH BABY! Joba better be throwing that fire…. I cant believe Robertson isnt in right now, but it’s all good.
Too soon I guess… Lets go AJ
PLease either Hughes or AJ
I honestly never doubted because this team is RIDICULOUS!
irony, firs two games in playoffs when Burnett pitched gem he didn’t get decision..tonight he will get his first win
minnesota was far from a gem, but game 2 alcs was excellent.
Hughes and Mo cant get 9 outs???
Bye, Bye Angels!
This team is so good they have Brazilian Yankee saying positive things read above.
AJ = Short leash…
good to see AJ is there
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 6.
Yepp. Sounds like them damn Yankees!
No… AJ is going back out…
AJ still in, he deserves the win. He really battled and kept us in the game when he had nothing going his way. Gotta give him a HUGE bowdown.
ill go with what Mike said above, AJ to Hughes to Mo. 4 outs from each of the last two
Conspiracy!!!
“Why do you build me up baby, just to let me down?” How apropros…
Good thing they brought in Gaudin with 0 outs in the 1st, huh?
Exactly.
Some people love jumping off bridges, I guess.
AJ to Hughes to Mo to PHILLY BABY!!!!!
6 runs with 2 outs
insanity
I love how the team scored all those runs without a homer.
AJ-Phil-Mo
Game
ok, can we finally get mathis out here?
You can’t let Jeff Mathis beat you!!
seriously a marte sighting?
I am scratching my head
Mathis – who is sucky otherwise – is 3-3 off Burnett
You go for the W here with Hughes and Mo
I can’t imagine messing with Marte and Joba here
Outside of that single Kubel-Mauer appearance, Marte’s done exactly what he’s supposed to do. Get out lefties.
He’s fine.
I officially am ok with Burnett starting off this inning.
I am officially a stupid asshole.
OPEN LETTER TO ANGELS FANS:
U knew soscia taking lackey out was a mistake.. but you still say he’s a great manager.
U knew the yankees were going to rock you… but you stuck with your team.
U knew Mariano didn’t spit on the ball… but you believed the lies.
This isn’t 04, or 05; this isn’t freaking Randy Johnson and Kevin Brown….
THIS IS THE 2009 YANKEES, SO SUCK IT!
marte and joba getting loose??
WHAT???
why the fuck is Marte in in sighting?
I DO NOT want to see Joba. I want Hughes if AJ can’t get Mathis.
Wow no Hughes warming.
I’d like to claim credit for calling Tex-as-righty-big-hit (or at the very least foreshadowing it).
Also, what’s the official fan prop in Hell? The Braves’ Tomahawks or Thundersticks?
Cowbells.
Yeah… pitch 1 was way a strike.
joba and marte?
wtf?
sosc should have removed lackey for oliver to face damon or just fucking kept him in. what he did was totally boneheaded and made ZERO sense
I’m gonna murder Jeff Mathis.
scoscia looks like he’s going to throw up
deeply satisfying
stupid mathis…
Why can’t they retire Mathis? This is ridiculous.
Jeff Mathis…REALLY? Give me a f’n break.
how the fuck does mathis keep on getting these damn hits???
How do you let Mathis go 3 for 3?
come on guys hold on to the lead
You gotta be kiddin me with fuckin Mathis. Unreal.
OMG McCarver just said it.
“That’s why, in my view…”
I heart Family Guy.
Haha, that’s an old school one.
I would rather see Robertson than Chamberlain or Marte
+1
When did Mike Piazza replace Jeff Mathis as the Angels backup catcher
Oh come on, Tim. That’s a total second guess. Lackey had the bases loaded.
how in god’s name is joba up instead of hughes???
Cmon AJ, get a DP
memo to jeff mathis: stop pretending to be good it’s pissing me off
mathis needs to go back to sucking
mathis really owning us. wtf?
Wow, I’m even more impressed that AJ is only at 85 pitches.
I stick with AJ right here.
bout time hughes got up.
Surprised Marte us up and not Coke????
marte has done the job this series.
And in the other series, too. And down the stretch.
Robertson, Hughes, Mo. That’s all we should see tonight. And that should start right now!!!!!!
Wow…Marte and Joba.
You don’t think they’re in there as an especially cruel bid to fill Angels fans hearts with hope, do you ?
I love showing this confidence in Burnett. But don’t give him too long of a leash.
I mean, I understand Mathis is a scrub and all, but when are we going to stop throgin him fastballs? (Although it won’t matter because he only has one at bat left this season.)
How many guys are we going to warm up?
someone needs to check mathis’ urine, asap.
also, thank god hughes is warming
Today was one scary Night watching paranormal activity if ya didnt see it i recommend ya should see it.
Why is Hughes not in NOW?
because girardi is going to bring in marte for figgins and abreu…guaranteed.
As he should.
Hughes can pitch > 1 inning… definately need him in there if/when AJ is taken out.
Hughes warming, very nice.
Hughes up now. Thank Mo.
I wish everyone there with a friggin thunderstick can take it and shove it up each other where the sun don’t shine.
Get him AJ!
cmon AJ, you got this
ALCS MVP: Jeff “Jose Molina West” Mathis
Lots of pretty girls in SoCal.
AJ’s got that look in his eyes.
Goddammmmmmmmit, I’m getting nervous. Let’s go, A.J. Blow it by him.
we still have few runs coming our way next two innings..this bp is rattled.
Come on, AJ, you’ve gotten this far!
Enough of AJ. He did his job, kinda. Time to go to the ‘pen.
This is going to end badly. Should have went to Marte.
You go to Marte here ONLY to turn Figgins around – MAYBE to pitch to Abreu if he can get Figgins
Girardi will point to AJ’s absurdly low pitch count (90?) and the fact that he gave up 3 hits since the first.
The way Mathis owned him – that points to pulling him at the start of the inning
If Mo can go 4 outs, and Hughes can go 4, you really don’t need much else – maybe D-Rob and Marte for an out each. This is a head-scratcher
bunt?
Fuckin shit.
shit
shit
shit
aight, bring in hughes or someone else here
Bring in Hughes
WHY DID POSADA CALL FOR A WALK?
lets go marte, you can do it!
told u he was going to marte for figgins and abreu.
Que porqueria
Alright Burnett. You didn’t do your job there, but great freaking job from the 2nd to 6th.
Love ya buddy.
what the fuck
well i guess marte is next
oh boy here we go
come on Marte. get it done
Fuck you AJ. Fuck you. Sit the fuck down and thanks for leaving after putting two on.
no fuck u…go away.
For real man. Go away, Hova.
You are not being reasonable here. Go dunk your head in a bucket of ice cold water for a few consecutive minutes and then come back.
lets go damaso!
aybar is challenging figgins as most annoying angel
Why Marte?
Figgins struggles mightily against lefties.
*nervous*
Girardi sux. What a MORON!!!! Just throw Hughes and Mo 3 innings and close it out you asshole…
Between the fawning over his defensive prowess (you wouldnt need to block so many balls if you catch them cleanly, angeltard mathis) and his timely hitting, Jeff Mathis = Jason Varitek 2.0.
Damn AJ good recovery from inning number 1 but shit dont walk the 9 hole hitter.
A-Rod does not have his digger yet
AJ choked when it mattered once again. Terrible job walking Aybar. And now with Marte coming in this has all the looks of a tie game after 2 batters.
You’ve been here too often to be considered a troll I guess, but you are a Sox fan right? Or Yankee hater?
there you go with your negativity
do you ever stop?
You don’t learn. You’re terminally dumb.
C’mon Marte! Get a double play!
Helluva job by AJ after that disastrous first inning but he leaves in trouble. He is probably the most frustrating player to follow, he can be so good, and so bad in such a short time span.
i have all the faith in marte. more than coke, dont hate guys
Ok – Marte. There’s surely a fine reason for this. I’m confident of a positive outcome
Watch for the damn bunt.
i agree. they bunt to get 2 RISP w 1 out.
Marte gets two batters, then Hughes? Be nice to justify that contract about now.
Like Tex!
/kidding
Chone Figgens
vs. Left 203 25 50 8 2 0 11 24 0 44 13 4 .246 .325 .305 .630
vs. Right 412 89 133 22 5 5 43 77 1 70 29 13 .323 .428 .437 .865
There’s no way Kendrick doesn’t bat now, right?
I’d think so.
Jesus.. the worst possible way to follow that rally.
so bunt from Figgens coming. Marte has to bring it to Abreu
What the….
can i hv 5 mins of no stomach-churns… yikes… this is ulcer creating
Welcome to October.
Alright, 2 on with no outs. Still can get out of this inning unscave here.
Kit Kat bars do not make that fucking sound.
When you eat them frozen and they chip your tooth they do
Wouldve been nice if Hughes wouldve just started the 7th inning.
Or at least after the first baserunner.
Marte or Hughes? I know the lefty matchup, but Hughes is the young fireballer who could just blow him away.
Marte was great the other night with the one pitch he threw. Let’s get a DP ball here Marte and you can earn your stripes.
You’re only looking at half of the equation.
The freaking monkey again…
i feel like im living a nightmare right now. please tell me when we come back from commercial hughes will be in.
What do you guys think: Did Girardi stay with AJ too long?
In hindsight yes.
bunt then DP. lets go
fresh BP and girardi brings out AJ??—-after overmanaging 3 days ago??
aj was at 82 pitches or something and was rolling. if he had shut them down 1-2-3 would you have questioned him? obviously it seems like the wrong move now but it wasn’t before
Oh, woops, I thought Izturis was still coming up.
Was inevitable.
adkfasflkjflj i’m narvose
alright, now marte find a way to get abreu out without runs plz?
Just walk Bobby and bring Hughes in to face Hunter.
hmm i never even thought about that
but that’s risky, torii had a big hit today already
we are on the same wavelength.
Hughes shouldve started the 7th inning.
Let’s get it Marte. You got this shit.
lol. Okay, Give us an out. Thanks Sciosca
Get Abreu out Marte!
I’m not going to lie, Marte in this spot scares me.
walk and bring in hughes for hunter?
There’s surely a fine reason for this. I’m confident of a positive outcome
This is your job, Marte. Get out tough LHH. Do it.
Coke has been way to HR-happy. Marte is fine for 2 batters.
what the hell Girardi did this evening..why was Hughes not starting this inning?>
whatever happens, marte over coke is the right move
hot hand >>> the guy that got you there
Strike this son a bitch out.
OF, DAMMIT
hes gonna get it done.
Damaso got this shit boys and girls.
2nd and 3rd, 1 out – pitching to Abreu is an odd choice
I’d walk him, bring in Hughes
Joe,
I see what you were trying to do, get your part-time headcase #2 starter a series clinching win, but after the Game 3 debacle, din’t Mo take away all your bullpen tokens (especially the 1 out outing ones)?
I dont like this.. abreu is due
Come thru Martye and stick it in McCarver’s face
all this hatred by fox on marte when he was INJURED
So Hughes can only get lefties out according to Girardi. This is his WORST move of the postseason. Hughes and Mo should have thrown 3 and closed it out.
Two outs man on third – not a disaster yet. Have faith.
SOS..Dave robertson..we have shit bed ready..cleanup please..
Lets go Marte.
c’mon marte, these announcers are shitting on you, show them what ur made of!
K Bobby and let Hughes sit down Hunter.
Well good job by Marte at least.
great job marte
very good job
All you fuckers who doubted the Yankees: http://mctighe.org/wp-content/.....finger.jpg
All you fuckers who doubted the Girardi for bringing in Marte: http://mctighe.org/wp-content/.....finger.jpg
please lets get through this inning with the lead
marte did the job, w00t
glad to have him
Bring in Hughes
great job by marte. now its hughes time
Good shit Marte. WS here we come.
Yankees plate 2 more in the top of the 8th….
