that AROD, what a choke artist!
That was a horseshit call.
At 5-1, I’m not too worried. Remaining innings may provide some stress, but it should be 3-1 series lead soon enough.
Eh, it had the height and according to Gameday is was on the black.
Alright CC, keep it going.
Is it me or does Santana looks like a Dominican Menonite
Hah.
I think he looks like a pigeon.
Speaking of which, Ervin Santana swooped in and started eating my hot dog on my lunch break today.
So it’s true he IS DISEASED.
He definitely looks like he should be churning butter or raising a barn.
He needs some extra testosterone. Floyd Landis style.
DFA the l0s3r!!!
It’s the old AROD! OH NO!
I really hope they hold this lead. If they keep slowly chipping away and Buck starts talking about how scrappy they are… I will implode
CC for 2, Hughes, Mo. Have no fear.
McCarver is experiencing what is known as “Sundowning”
Where’s my tapioca, damnit!
Is that third base umpire going to man up for all his sins?
Shit, A-Rod is going to be chomping his gum like crazy now.
ietc
CC can’t pitch in big games.
AROD can’t hit in clutch..
It’s the 6th inning! There shouldn’t be any activity, either.
Truly unacceptable. A K/BB ratio of 2.00 this game!
come cc no walks buddy
WHy is Joe Buck trying to push Girardi in BP with 65 pitches on CC?
The Binder.
You mean former Cy Young winner CC Sabathia is under 70 pitches in the 6th inning and the Yankees don’t have anyone up in the bullpen? Say it ain’t so Joe Buck!
That change up is devastating
Wow Hunter had no shot at that 3-1 pitch.
CC is good for 110 pitches tonight.
Well, he DOES have a top 5 change-up…
Hah, I just realized that the LoHud blog is short for Lower Hudson Valley…so much potential for celebrity “adult” websites to do targeted advertising over there
CC’s control has really evaporated since that Morales hr. YOu have to wonder if that long layoff affected him.
Guy behind Angels’ dugout: what a jerk.
That dude just totally stole the ball.
They seem to be getting a much better read on CC all of a sudden..
That guy in the black jacket is probably Guy Fiery’s brother?
dude with the gray shirt ftw
Those guys in the front row were looking for spit on the ball
how many check swings calls equal the third base call?
A Baker’s Dozen.
1. especially on a 3-2 count.
did he fist that ?
now thats frustrating and here come the damn thundersticks
lucky bullshit
6th fucking inning every god damn game. Cmon CC, stop fucking around.
cc need to clamp down this inning..
Dammit, Swish was playin’ way deep w/Vlad up there.
Let’s go, CC. Work out of trouble, buddy.
Other than the home run none of the angels hits have been too impressive.
yes but they have 2 on and no outs
noted. Sabathia on the mound though. Double play is a distinct possibility
told you
lame, game of millimeters. time to come up huge Rivera, or not?
I know he has a ton of pitches left but he hasn’t looked great the last inning or so. Do you start the BP?
why dont I feel good??
Umm, that was fuckin strike ump!
Damn bloopers.
Cmon CC, get out of this please.
GIDP from Rivera would be very welcome.
Take notes, please.
First and second, nobody out? *yawn*
Come on Double Play
Even Joe BUck knows that was a swing..
Umps are still trying to make up for that double play.
I’m calling it now, so I can crow about it later. Triple Play.
cmon CC
you got this
just be aggressive again
CC looks tired. Time to get the ‘pen up.
Seriously? Do you have anhedonia?
ahhh, there you are.
He’s not tired, he’s just bored. He put those runners on just to make it more exciting.
We need more runs. have to extend the lead again before they catch up…i dont think 5 will hold. we struggle with leads in this park
only with that attitude
Come on CC, Triple play.
I called it first.
We’re not playing the Mets.
what, you trying to win a car with that prediction?
The yankees should have thunder-towlie-monkees
I’m afraid I smell fatigue.
/forgetting my earlier post almost immediately
Oh noes, the rally monkey is out.
Let’s kill it!
He really is laboring now.
Umpires doing everything they can to get to CC.
we need CC to finish 7 strong….I dont trust Joe G with the Pen
WOw look at that HOTTIE with the TATAs.
THOSE THINGS WERE GOOOOD
GJ not throwing at Rivera’s head there, CC
called it
yeah
Balls. They could have pulled it off.
jesus jorge
wake up
What planet is POSADA ON??????
haha, Jorge
What the hell is Posada doing?
Great job by CC.
Posada needs to take his Gindobaloba.
JORGE! WHAT AER YOU DOING?!??
Thanks Juan. I did ask nicely, didn’t I?
Posada is playing for the Angels in this game.
Posada put ur head in the game.
Carsten Charles doesn’t like monkey..
LOL, Posada trying to cheer everyone up. Heads up play by AROD.
gritty even?
Dude is Jorge retarded? How many foul ups can you have?
goddamn Jorge wtf is wrong tonight get your head out fo your ass
What is Posada doing? More awful than normal on defense
is posada an idiot, like, legally, or just drunk, maybe himand mccellan are sipping
Great double play but wtf Posada
Something is terribly wrong with Posada…
Seriously. I’m at the point of wondering if there’s something wrong in his personal life, or if he’s sick or something.
Cant be his personal life…his wife is hot as hell!
his kid has a rare disease
Wake up JoPo!
Damn Posada get your head in the fucking game.
Damn, what was that?!
arod was there to save the day
YES! DP!
Nice job A-rod. Smart man, that A-rod.
One more CC. One more.
Judge Rivera is gonna have a field day with this game.
LOL Jorgie. It’s all good homey
if kendrick gets a hit, I may or may not make a house call
Thank God Thirteen is off that show. I was so tired of the relationship with her and Foreman.
Can someone please tell Jorge to wake the FUCK UP
Honestly, what are they smoking between innings?
One more out here CC.
cmon CC just get that batter….. sit his ass down
is it me or is Joe Buck hoping for a Kendrick HR
They’ve been doing that for a while now.
Way to make a case for starting over Molina Jorgie!
Circular Lineups!!!!
1 for 1 with two BB no way molina gives em that.
what about the base running errors?
His game-tying HR yesterday says hello.
Jorge and Swisher were sniffin that nail polish. That’s how they get down.
Why is CC falling behind on everyone?
They never finished their “blink of an eye” comparison. FUFOX.
Better lucky than good sometimes.
Tex Marks the SPOT!
I think posada has been sniffing too much of that white out he put on his fingernails.
god I hate Joe Buck soooooooooooooo much
Don’t worry, 90% of us here do too. It’s only normal.
Sabathia rules, yeah!
Tex flashes the leather and then says to the Angels “I bet you miss this shiet.”
Tight rope walkin: the Yankees do it.
thats not bad break Buck, that is awesome pitching and slick fielding..
Bend but don’t break. Good job CC.
1 more inning for CC then BP time.
Tex is a damn wall, alright boys
hmm…a literal wall at first base…who is Jason Giambi Alex?
That is excellent positioning! Tex was right where he needed to be and that’s on the coaching staff.
You giving Girardi props?
THat was Pena positioning the defense I’m sure.
I give him both credit and crap whenever either is due.
CC makes me believe in life after love.
Posada feeling the pressure of having Molina in the shadows.
And another great use of the glove by Tex. Well played, sir.
What the heck is wrong with posada. get your head in the game!!
Wow, CC is still only at 80 pitches, does he get the 7th?
Joe G better leave CC in….do we really trust Joba and the boys with this one ?
I trust the pen a lot. But I still want CC in.
Just need one more from CC
Why is it when the Yankees can’t hit with a man on third Buck says they “fail to produce” or something along those lines, but when the Angels can’t he calls it a “bad break”?
Well, that was a shot. Not like Kendrick grounded out weakly.
because apparently if the yankees don’t go 162-0 and sweep the playoffs winning every game by 10 runs, they’re not meeting expectations
Kendrick smoked that ball. It was a bad break that Teixeira was right there.
because early in the game the yankees struck out or popped out not scorched a line drive right at someone.
I hate Howie Kendrick so fucking much. I really hope the Angels trade him to the Brewers or something.
Alternatively, he could decide his true calling is interpretive dance.
that is alternative fo sho
cc is a fucking hoss
CC is man.
You can see him losing his stuff and still pure heart.
If you guys think Jorge is taking crazy pills, you guys are crazier if you really think he should be out of the lineup. He’s hitting .375 in the postseason and is one of the only guys hitting.
he can stay in the lineup, but hes gotta start taking his meds
Or just get his head out of his ass, I cant abide anyone playing if they can’t see the field due to their head in their anus
And an OBP of about .500 and a SLG of about .650. He’s so underrated at times.
Ha that fox news guy is sooo not into the ladykind.
3 rbi’s from the bottom of the order, just what the doctor ordered!
If he’s gonna be an idiot, POSADA SMASH!!
my mind is still blown from the jorge steal
I’d sure take some of those solo home runs that were so bad yesterday right about now.
And….Jorge is still sleeping.
Urine cannot defeat The Pigeon.
Is Matsui even awake.
you NEVER can tell
Matsui’s pitch selection is interesting tonight. He’s taking pitches on the inside half that he usually turns on ’cause of his bucket stepping.
Yeah, he seems very tentative tonight.
CC is a murderer! He’s the killed the rally monkey and ripped it into small pieces twice tonight.
I don’t think he killed it the first time.
More like, he took the friggin retarded monkey pulled off all it’s limbs. Took the limbs and beated the monkey with it’s now torn and bloody limbs. Then told it to fuck off. Sadly, the monkey doesn’t know any better. So CC had to put it out of it’s misery.
Good call.
They’re finally giving some credit to Joe, WOW!!!
matsui is effin lost. just watching pitches come back over the plate… him and tex. ugh.
Agree on Matsui. But then again, I think he has been lost most of the season.
You think poorly.
CC for another inning?
hopefully someone is up in the pen
would like a Robinson solo blast
Hitler loved that baby.
Bad Cano. Bad.
You too, can be an Umpire. It’s just this easy.
http://www.umpireschool.com/online_enrollment.html
You mean I can make calls for plays that I never had my eyes on ?! You mean I can be “right” just because I’m the friggin ump!?
Finally a job where I can be lazy+blind and push people around.
Sign me up!!!
Golfing Cano?
way to run that out cano
Could you have run that out slower, Cano?
Santana really has the Yankees number the last two days.
I hate Ervin Santana….I didnt even know there were Amish Dominicans.
You’ll never know.
You’ve never heard of Jebediah Gonzalez?
Lol’d
Iight CC, try have a clean 7th inning here.
Santana throws slop and gets 3 good hitters out. 9 more outs for a W.
That inning just gave me flashbacks from yesterday. Terrible ABs.
9 outs left
CC for 1 more out and then 8 more pitchers for the rest?
Please CC 3 more outs and I don’t have to see Girardi’s fucking Chart book.
This girl is supposed to be a “kid”? She looks at least 17.
/pat’d
if anyone is listening( and why would you) Sterling and Waldman are scaring me to death with all the “impending doom ” talk
Seriously. I’m glad I’ll be in a jukebox music-filled crowded bar for thursday’s game. You can’t listen to any announcers here.
Its going to be just as bad on TV if anything starts up.
yeah…that and all of their sweating of howie kendrick.
Yeah. Sterling and Waldman are nothing if not right all the time. We’re F’d!
I’m listening to them while watching the game on Fox muted. Why would you want to listen to Buck and McCarver??
4-run lead in the 7th is doom and gloom time? Really?
Who’s up? One of their large catchers with low contact and high power?
Or is it Kendry first?
Why is Kendry all the way down in the lineup?
he cant hit lefties
That.
Or: He’s not Mark Texiera
Why did their 3 hitter (Hunter) bunt a few games ago? Same reason.
Kendry.
He got busted down for not hitting as well in the first few games, I guess.
.294 OBP v/ lefties in his career.
So why the balls is he a switch hitter?
Because he’d probably be even worse batting lefty against lefties.
Incremental benefits.
CC for 4 or 5 more outs baby.
Quick inning is coming.
Joe G said 115.
black eyed peas, howie long, incomprehensible blackberry ads, tim mccarver
the things we do for baseball
but the “black boots ” girl is HOT
+1
+9″
HAHA IETC
boots, pants, dress, then hat?
I’d go:
Pants, boots, dress, then hat.
But it’s close.
Plavix Dad’s daughter is way cuter.
(thinks)
Nope.
We are an amazing bunch, going through the unbearable just to cheer for our team.
That blackberry commercial is beginning to throw me into a bloodlust though.
I kind of hate ervin Santana.. ourguys mistake him for JohanS… i think he replaced Bartolo Colon in 05 ALDS game 5 and stabilized enuf for them to comeback..
Ifi were JoeG,iwould start Hughes and Chamberlain now…
Okay, our lineup is sleeping now. I hope CC can get it to Mo.
…
I DO NOT HOPE. I DO!
/Fernando’d
Anybody see getting that anti-suozzi ad. I don’t care about the politics of it but why would i listen to an old dude, obviously in a hotel, probably waiting for he ladyfriend to clean up in the bathroom
i would say something about the angels playing build me up buttercup, but the yankees play ymca and cotton eyed joe
he is good for another 40 pitches
Look at the ears on the bullpen catcher. Holy crap.
CC losing the plate.
CC please don’t walk the leadoff man again.
get someone up in the pen please.
im stupid, CC totally has this.
What happened to CC’s control ever since the 5th he’s been behind almost everyone.
They sneak in an imaginary friend? WHAT?!
and apparantly CC has to pay this imaginary friend to be his friend.
That’s a hooker (though some consider the term “wife” to be related)!
Nice Buck, the 2-1 results in a 3-0 count
That’s fucking pitching baby.
CC
CC
CC
CC
Dylan.
take that shit Morales
Good comeback by CC to get Morales.
CC has GOT THIS
throwing too many pitches?? Ok I will take the strike out
CC/ZZ ripping it apart.
He is beast mode.
Haha, CC just toyed with Morales’ emotions there.
highest paid imaginary friend wtf?
CC’s imaginary friend: only acceptable if it was a stuffed tiger.
On a related note, I’m considering buying this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Sara-Palin.....685wt_1167
You will have to outbid me. I am a sniper bidder so watch out.
I am feeling CC through 7, Hughes, and then Mo.
Nah. CC through 8.
CC!! CC!! CC!!
i like how they slow the first couple frames down so you can see what grip he is using.
Oh hello back to back K’s
I can’t believe they didn’t put Hughes in. So stupid.
My sarcasm meter broken?
Go to sleep, Napoli. Go to sleep!
WOOOOO CC
CC Sabathia >>>>>>>> short rest
Fuck thrown him back out there tomorrow.
LOL
WOW…just WOW !!!
CC CC CC!!!
This is as close to “v.2008 Brewers’ CC” as we’ve seen this year, no?
just little better
It’s like CC put his foot down.
“That bullshit you guys pulled the last two innings, we ain’t having any more of that.”
LOL people are at the edge of the cliff at 3-0…
And CC gets back to back K’s.
If Yankee managers had this sort of patience or really lack of it I don’t know what will happen.
cereally
You know, I had a buddy who would always tell me that “terrific” is a white gut’s word. He seems to have been proved right.
Every big out CC gets, another tear comes out of Brian Cashman.
Wow CC looks tired, he’s losing the plate. Better get someone up in the pen.
Oh wait, it’s CC fucking Sabathia nevermind, he’ll just continue beasting.
zz to teh eighth!
worth every penny
CC/ZZ just took the now mangled rally monkey corpse, dragged it back out. Stomps on it some more, pisses all over it and throws it into the LA crowd to show them what he thinks of the fucking dumb rally monkey.
96% win probability from Fangraphs
CC
CC
CC
CC
CC!
CC has to pitch another inning here.
Tex’s is boosting his UZR like crazy this postseason
Nice and easy.
I wouldn’t mind a tack on run this inning.
CC is not leting Joe G look at his matchups crap …only one he will hand the ball to will be God
You have to send CC out to at least start the 8th, no?
hell yeah….who’d you rather ?
CCs next start will be GAME 1 of the WORLD SERIES
CC TRICKS the Angels into thinking they have a rally going…then TREATS to a few Ks and quick inning. I love that he’s in the Halloween spirit today.
CC says YOU WILL HAVE NOTHING AND LIKE IT!
Just change his name to KK.
Do you let him go in the 8th?
So is CC going to be back out there for the 8th? He is at 92 pitches now and still dealing.
Would it be greedy to ask for one more inning?
