Jay says:

That was a nice inning. Now I want to see some more runs.

 
Esteban says:

At least one more for Pettitte, he’s only at 83 pitches

DreDog says:

7 innings then????

Jersey says:

I was thinking that. He’s got a shot. Who’d have expected that, the way he started out?

 

We’ll see. I let him go 110, I figure he might pitch game 7 on short rest, so I don’t over extend him. Batter to batter after 100.

 
Andrew says:

Pettitte is going to have to pitch on short rest game 6 (if necessary). I see him going 6 1/3

 
 
 
Riddering says:

This booth cracks me up.

“[Howard] puts the ball into play!11!”

Almost as good as a HR. Baby steps for Howard. Not everyone can be A-Rod.

Esteban says:

will the media start writing about Howard’s struggles in the WS?

 
 
Jay says:

And every time Shane Victorino comes up I can’t help but think of Kramer feeding that horse beefarino:

“I’m so keen-o, on Beefarino, what a delicious cuisine-o, fit for king and queen-o!”

slappy white says:
 
Drew says:

haha the good ol’ fishing out the window episode.

 

I think of that Doritos commercial where the guy forgets the guacamole, and the Baseball player on TV looks just like him starts screaming “THAT’S BUSH LEAGUE!”

 
 
RL says:

He’s going 7 innings

 
Tank Foster says:

I want the fourth run that I asked for last inning. And one more. So two runs.

 
baka nakamura says:

andy’s really done a great job bouncing back after the meltdown. m ore runs! we must have blood!

 
Reggie C. says:

I’d love to see Cano start the inning with an extra base-hit. With Jorge swinging away at 3-0 pitches , we need some punch.

Reggie C. says:

My dream lasted all of 3 seconds.

baka nakamura says:
 
 
Esteban says:

He had other plans :(

 
 
BigBlueAL says:

Cano is doing his best Soriano impersonation this postseason.

 
Jersey says:

Unrelated, USC is getting their ass kicked by Oregon. Wow.

Reggie C. says:
Jersey says:

ESPN 2. 44-20 Oregon, and they’re threatening.

 
 
 
Souter Fell says:

let’s but…. 2 more on the board

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Whadduya know, 1st pitch swing, weak GB by Robbie Cano!

adeel says:

patience my friend. patience.

 
 
adeel says:

I want to restart Andrew’s thread, just cause it was intelligent

“who should come in after Pettite”

my thoughts:
robertson for the seventh,
hughes for 8th
then mo

it worked in the regular season, it will work now.
Joba if hughes/robertson let anyone get to second base.

Esteban says:

There needs to be a lefty for Utley and Howard

 
 
Joe D. says:

Brazil: I believe you were mocking Big Game Andy earlier. I think you owe him an apology.

Doug says:

APOLOGIZE TO ANDY

Hey Philly, We Ain't the Rays says:
 
 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

There’s a better chance I expel the re-resurrection of Jesus Christ out of my non-existent vagina than receiving an apology from him.

 
 
E-ROC says:
Drew says:

What? Him swinging at the first pitch? Dude hit like 400 on first pitches all year.

E-ROC says:

He should look for something much more hittable.

 
 
 
slappy white says:

Swish homers here

Souter Fell says:
G FUnk says:
 
Souter Fell says:

all praise to slappy white

 
Joker, The says:
 
Reggie C. says:

but apparently so.

good call Slappy!

 
slappy white says:
Souter Fell says:

already did but will to it again, slappy is the man

 
 
 
Will says:

damn you called it!

 
baka nakamura says:

what a fucking call!

 
DreDog says:

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What slump?

 
JFH says:

slappy called it!!!

 
 
Kevin in CT says:

holy shit, this is call of the night

 
ShuutoHeat says:

Can you please call a 10 run lead? It’d be nice to see the painful twitching on their faces.

 
 
JackC says:

Say what you want about Cano, even when slumping, he never stops hustling. Did you see him sprinting down the line there?

Oh yes no one can top his laziness.
Not even David Ortiz or friggin Howard can be more lazy.
(rolls eyes)

JackC says:

Not sure how citing other lazy players makes Cano less lazy, or, for that matter, hislaziness more palatable

 
 
 
Kevin in CT says:

How the fuck is “J.A.” pronounced “Jay”?

Dave G says:
 
 
E-ROC says:
 
bobtaco says:

There Ya Go, haters

 
Jay says:

SWISHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

SWISH!
Told you it’s all home troubles.

 

THE SWISHER PICKER UPPER!!!

 
Doug says:

GAWN.

Swishahouse.

 
southernyankeefan says:

I thought he was gonna hit the master card sign for a second.

 
Andrew says:

he said he felt good before the game started

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:

swishaaa has left the building

 
Peedlum says:

Happ says that today is a good day to die. SWISH agrees.

 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Maybe the game 2 benching worked. Maybe Swisher is not so worthless after all.

 
Riddering says:

Damn.

Let’s not bench Swisher in favor of Gardner, mmkay?

JMK aka The Overshare says:

I’d prefer Hinske. PLAYS BETTER D, TOO!

 
 
 
adeel says:

That felt soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good. Thank you Swisher!

 
Hall and Nokes says:

Swisher’s world series MVP bid has only begun, people.

 
Jersey says:
 
yankees=warriors says:

Swisher has finally awaken!

 
G FUnk says:

WHERE WAS THIS BAT WAGGLE ALL SEASON….

Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

I don’t know but he hit 29 homers without it

 
JackC says:

Apology accepted, Mr. Swisher

 
 
swisher's fauxhawk says:

I crushed that shit.

 
Joe D. says:

JERRY HAIR–

Hey, wait a second.

 
 
Esteban says:

Swishalicious!!!!

 
V says:

Swisher, I apologize for being a doubter.

 
Jake H says:

Swishers new right handed stance looks stupid but it’s good.

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

Time for jerry again?

 
Pasqua says:

How good does this man feel, ladies and gentlemen?

 
Salty Buggah says:

SWISHER!!!!!!!!!!!!! SWISHHAWK!!!!!!!!!!!

 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Another lucky out for Happ. They are really hitting him hard.

Yup. Eventually it’s going to fall in.

 
 
Drew says:

Man Melk needs some babip help tonight.

 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

Swisher got the message by sitting on bench for a game..

 

“Swisher’s a backup playah. He can’t hit good pitching”

/Francesa’d

Zack says:
 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Yeah, Cliff Lee looks terrible tonight. OH, WAIT!

 
 
Quikksand says:

JOLLY OLD NICK SWISHER!

 
swisher's fauxhawk says:

Come on Melky, you’re getting outhit in the series by Andy Pettitte.

Brazilian Yankee says:

I’m not Melky biggest fan but he did scorch two balls tonight. Bad luck for him tonight.

 
Salty Buggah says:

It’s OK. He’s hit it really hard 2 out last 3 times. Just right to people.

 
 
Joe D. says:

They are hitting this dude hard. A-Rod and Melky with outs that were hit solidly.

 
JackHammer says:

Swisher is one streaky mofo. He’ll get one more before this series ends…

Very streaky. People were worrying about him earlier but that’s been him. Do meh at home be ownage on the road.

 
 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

Andy walking here will make my night..

 
Bob Stone says:

Swish – Big insurance run.

 
slappy white says:

SLAPPY WHITE= PROPHET

 
Kevin in CT says:

Yankees fans doing the Hey Hey Hey, Good bye song… hahahhahahahhahahahaha

/pwned

Dude, this series isn’t over. This GAME is far from over.

Kevin in CT says:

I know i know, it’s still glorious because of how irritating the philly phans are

 
 
 
Salty Buggah says:

Andy sees more pitches than Cano!

 
Quikksand says:
 
BigBlueAL says:

Kinda expecting Pettitte to go yard that at-bat.

 
Jake H says:

Andy is a better batter then JOrge. He saw more pitches then him.

Klemy says:

Not to mention Cano!

 
ShuutoHeat says:

Keep in mind that Jorge has a hard time counting… how many times he has screwed up the K/B count?

 
 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Another shutdown inning here would be wonderful.

 
Klemy says:

I trust we won’t hear anymore of the “Hairston should start again.” stuff.

SWISHA

BigBlueAL says:

But tonight is vs LHP. Vs RHP gotta start Hinske!! Definitely Hairston again if Pedro pitches!!

 

Remember how hot Swish was in late April? A tear like that would be nice right about now.

 
 
Joe D. says:

Wow, for all the excessive love I was hearing about the Philly crowd earlier, a bunch of (I assume) Yankee fans just let out a full-throated “Na na na, hey hey goodbye” chant completely uncontested.

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

I’m going to go ahead and say MVP of the thread is Slappy White.

 
Girardi out to the mound says:

Why aren’t Buck and McCarver talking about how quiet the stadium is?

Funny how quiet it gets when you have nothing to cheer about.

Yeah WTF they did that when the Yanks were at home.

 
 
adeel says:

hey Mike, have you ever thought of having an in-game chat? Setting something up for like two innings of one of these games?

Yeah, but we get a ton of comments/questions in the regular chats, and I think a game chat would just be overwhelming. We want to make sure everyone has a chance to get a word in.

We’re going to experiment with some stuff next year in ST, that’ll probably be one of them.

adeel says:

can’t wait!

The worst part about the world series is that the offseason is ohhh so loooong =(

 
 
 
bonestock94 says:

AP + Bullpen just need to hold it down!!

 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

I bet a dollar that Lupica and Joel Sherman already had their Yankees suck articles ready to go for tomorrow before 4th inning

Zack says:

they’ll just copy-and-paste the articles after Yanks lost game 1

 
 
baka nakamura says:
 
 
southernyankeefan says:

Fuck he crushed that pitch.

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Yikes. He can fucking hit a ball.

 
Klemy says:

The come from behind thing is overplayed when both teams have done it over and over.

 
 
G FUnk says:

well i guess werth has pets number…

 
Salty Buggah says:

Damn. It’s OK Andy. Keep it there.

 
bobtaco says:

Why are they pitching it there ?

Jake H says:

he missed. He was trying to go in and it was right down the middle.

 
 
 
Joe D. says:

The people at MasterCard just shit their pants a little.

V says:

Eh, they have insurance.

 
 
Andrew says:

very close to 1,000,000

 
Kevin in CT says:
 
baka nakamura says:

holy fucking geico.

 
ShuutoHeat says:

Werth has Andy’s number tonight.
Buck jizzed all over himself there.

 
NYFan50 says:

Wow he crushed that ball.

 
Doug says:

Woof. Those insurance runs really came in handy.

 
Jersey says:
 
V says:

Damn, Werth owns LH pitching.

 
Reggie C. says:

Soooooooooo when does Werth hit free agency?

JMK aka The Overshare says:

Gotta think they’d re-sign him, right?

 
 
 
Riddering says:

Damn, yo.

Utley killed CC. Werth is killing Pettitte.

 

That was just an awful pitch. Nowhere near where it was supposed to go.

Brazilian Yankee says:

Andy’s command has been terrible tonight. Wonder if it’s the extra rest or the rain delay…

 
whozat says:

yup. Funny how much less I care at this point in the game. If he gets out of this without giving up any more runs, I’m fine.

 
 
Esteban says:

I am impressed by Jayson Wehrt

Esteban says:
 
 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Awful. At least it was a solo shot.

 
Quikksand says:

come on Pettitte, bear down!!!!!

 
baka nakamura says:

shut it down! now!

 
Dave G says:

Just get through this inning Andy, with the lead.

 
Joker, The says:

I fucking hate pube-head Werth.

How can you hate a guy who is the perfect athlete?

/Buck’d

Joker, The says:

I’m sadly mistaken…I guess that was a STATEMENT SWING.

 
 
 
Klemy says:

AT least he was challenging hitters? lol

JMK aka The Overshare says:

By temporarily throwing BP.

 
 
JoeFromBayRidge says:

That was a monster blast

 

Werth is Batting .200 in his career against Pettite, yet he’s slugging .800! Mother F^%$&*@!!!

I’m going to go right ahead and guess it’s a SSS to being with.

3 for 15 all 3 hits are HR’s.

Oh thanks. But it is kinda funny.

 
 
 
Klemy says:

I was thinking that same thing. lol

 
 
Reggie C. says:

First out following a monster shot like that is important. Just settle back in Andy.

 
Hugh Jassman says:

Wow, Damon didn’t even move. Not a flinch.

 

werth is totally juicing

 
SF Yanks says:

Coming in to this game I was scared shitless of the Andy/Werth match-up. And that was why.

C’mon Andy, you got this. Two more outs.

 
whozat says:

Come on, Andy. 6 innings sounds so much better than 5.1

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

Werth = what xavier nady would’ve been if healthy this year

Joe D. says:

you forgot the “less”.

Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

Lets not get crazy

 
 

Werth is a five tool player…and all five of those tools are swiss army knives!

/McCarver’d

 
BigBlueAL says:

Doubt Nady wouldve come close to hitting anywhere near 36 HR.

 

No way, Nady doesn’t have nearly the plate discipline Werth does.

Werth career OBP = .360

Nady’s best single season OBP = .357

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

Yeah I meant mainly in terms of the power. It was supposed to be an exaggeration but I don’t think it’s necessarily too far off

Joe D. says:

HIP HIP!

Thank you, ump, for that ridiculous fucking ball call on 3-1!

Joe D. says:
 
 
 
 
 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

2 hardest hit HRs this season I have seen are from Werth, one at the stadium in May and one just now

Hey Philly, We Ain't the Rays says:

Did you see the Ibanez one?

 
 
G FUnk says:

dont walk feliz… por favor

Dave G says:

Great job on Feliz. First right handed batter to strike out tonight.

 
 
Doug says:

Backfoot slider. Dangerous.

 
Jake H says:

2 big k’s there.

 
G FUnk says:

there ya go andy….nice pitch

 
Klemy says:

7Ks, he’s got something working, even giving up 4 runs.

 
Jay says:

Expect Pettitte to go away….Nope.

McCarver PWNED again.

 
Esteban says:

Andy’s pitching to the score.

/not serious

 
Will says:

lol mccarver fail

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:

AP is fearless with the 3ball sliders down

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

Jeez mccarver was a catcher? He never has a clue what they’re going to throw

 
Jersey says:

Andy Pettitte, strikeout machine.

Jersey says:

Yet he walks Ruiz twice. What. The. Fuck.

 
 
baka nakamura says:

you got it andy. c’mon!

 
G FUnk says:

andy is out of gas…. gotta go to the pen if ruiz gets on

 
Joe D. says:

If the answer is “Chad Durbin”, then you’ve asked the wrong question.

whozat says:
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Double golf clap. Well played.

 
 
 
 
whozat says:

Why are they being so careful with Ruiz???

 
V says:

You would honestly think that Ruiz was a 60 HR monster the way we’re pitching him.

 
Quikksand says:

now the tying run is at the plate

whozat says:

Yeah, but it’s Eric Bruntlett, who has not had an AB in literally a month.

 
 

They love talking about the tying run when it’s the opposing team.

bobtaco says:

They really do. +1

 
 
Jake H says:

Why are they walking Ruiz? I just don’t understand this at all.

 
Reggie C. says:

Who’s this douchebag at the plate?

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Hmmm…not liking that so much…

 
Pasqua says:

Actually, that walk, while shitty, forces Manuel’s hand. Durbin will come in now and turn Tex and Jorge (if he goes that far) around.

 
Klemy says:

I hate walking an 8 hitter with a 2 run lead. Ugh…

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:

andy can be as frustrating as AJ sometimes with the walks

Nah, not that bad.

 
Klemy says:

Coming in to tonight, hasn’t he only walked 3 in the last three starts? Tonight it’s been a little dicey.

 
 
Salty Buggah says:

Last inning for Andy for sure I think.

Pasqua says:

Foregone conclusion. He may not last the inning.

 
 
Brazilian Yankee says:

one mroe out…all we need

Brazilian Yankee says:
 
 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

Wow..sometimes Phillies look Boston of NL in terms of how white they r ..e.g. Werth, Bruntlet

Riddering says:

Hamels, Lee, Happ being albino…

 
whozat says:

…Rollins? Howard? I mean, those are their two most high-profile players.

Stadium Garlic Fries says:

I said “sometimes”

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

ruiz, ibanez, martinez

 
 
 
Jake H says:

Andy seems to be losing his command.

DFD says:

100 pitches has been that magic turning point for him all year. he made it through 7 innings though and kept the yankees in the game. that’s all you can ask for.

 
 
ClayBuchholzLovesLaptops says:

McCarver does not understand daylight savings time.

 
Reggie C. says:

Oh Joe Buck. STFU.

Pasqua says:
 
 
Esteban says:

jonahkeri

Eric Bruntlett pinch-hitting?! Was an inanimate carbon rod the only other option?

whozat says:

Hey! That rod is a winner!

 
Joe D. says:

Jonah Keri is awesome.

Still, the inanimate carbon rod was Employee of the Month earlier this year.

 
 
Salty Buggah says:

Wait, how can you be late for the game tomorrow if the clock is moving BACK an hour? Confusing me McCarver.

McCarver fail again.

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:
 
Joe D. says:

If you forget to move your clock back, then you’d be late for the game.

 
 
Dave G says:

9 outs away, fellows. 9 outs away

 
Riddering says:

Well, we got a lot more out of Andy than expected.

Confidence level = OVER NINE THOUSAND.

TheLastClown says:

Robertson, Hughes, Mo?

Pasqua says:

Oh, no. The Golden Boy Chamberlain will be in this game, I’m sure.

The Three Amigos says:

Marte is clearly pitching to Howard and utley

 
 
 
 
bobtaco says:

The 7th and 8th innings are going to be interesting to say the least…

Tank the Frank says:
 
 
Hall and Nokes says:

Hopefully Andy is not going to have to face Werth again. Not in this series, maybe not ever.

 
JFH says:

well happ is now out and we are out of the inning. not a bad walk after all.

TheLastClown says:

Happ was giving up some hard hit balls.

WOuldn’t have minded touching him up some more.

Cue feasting on Chad Durbin.

 
whozat says:

I don’t think Happ being out is good. Guys hit the ball pretty well off him, just at people.

Having the pitchers’ spot come up next inning would have been better.

The top six in their lineup vs Joba/Hughes will be interesting, yeah.

 
 
Alex S says:
 
The Three Amigos says:

9 more outs lets focus.

 
Joe D. says:

Not quite a QS for Andy, but I think the RBI single cinches it anyway. Way to bounce back after the first two innings. Damn impressive.

((Wonders if Jorge Posada will get credit for “guiding” Andy back the way Molina got credit for getting AJ back on track in the ALCS…))

Count Crapulent says boo to you sir says:

If Jorge was a guide dog, Andy would be walking into walls.

 
whozat says:

No, Andy’s a grinder, and Jorge “confused” him on that bunt in the 2nd. Jorge should probably be shot for the good of the team. If he wasn’t so me-first, he’d take care of it himself.

 
 
Sam says:

Werth probably missed the Mastercard sign on purpose. He must be anti-anti-cancer. New subplot to the series!

 
Kevin in CT says:

Who the fuck pitches bottom seven with the top of their order up? Sheet

Klemy says:

I almost expect Marte to get a hitter this coming inning. More runs to pad the lead would be nice here.

 
 

If Yanks keep it up I hope they still keep their plans of starting Blanton and not Lee.

Kevin in CT says:

Lee was supposed to throw his bullpen today, which I think he did (can anyone confirm) which means it’s impossible for him to start tomorrow

 
 
 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

While we’re on commercial, question: Does Werth actually hit the open market in 2011? I think Phillies re-sign him.

Alex S says:

He will be 32 in 2011, idk about signing him

He’s got two bad knees too. Let someone else pay through the nose for his decline.

 
 
 

So how does the pen work no?

I go to K-Rob for Rollins and Victorino, Marte for Utley and Howard, then depending on the situation, either Joba for Werth, or Marte so he can face Ibanez.

bobtaco says:

Joba up, might be him first before DRob…

 
The Three Amigos says:

No lefties vs. Worth thanks.

Sincerely,

The Baseball

 
 
Souter Fell says:

let’s get this back

 
Alex S says:

the ball really seems to travel in Philly

Jet stream? Or bandbox?

Klemy says:

ughh, that was a pitch to hit.

Klemy says:
 
 
 
 
Souter Fell says:

c’mon tex, stop looking so scared and wideyed and punish a pitch

He just homered last game.

 
 
Reggie C. says:

Good job JD.

Teixeiera’s due to hit a bad ball tonight.

 
Jay says:

Ok Tex. You get a lefty at bat here. Let’s go.

 
slappy white says:
 
Jake H says:

I wouldn’t mind seeing Johnny go during this at bat.

slappy white says:

can he still run ?

Well that answers that.

slappy white says:

yeah, yhe old guy can still do it

Makes me wonder why his UZR it such a fail. But good speed doesn’t always mean great range, ask Ellsbury.

 
 
 
 
Esteban says:

you got your wish

 
Joe D. says:
 
 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

That was outside.

EB says:
 
 
Lissette says:

where is Mark’s ws patch?

 
Reggie C. says:

bad swing at a bad pitch.

 
Esteban says:

What an awful call on that pitch

 
swisher's fauxhawk says:

How in God’s name was the 3rd pitch a strike? That pitch was in New Jersey.

I live in New Jersey and I approve of the validity of this message.

 
 
Souter Fell says:
 
Salty Buggah says:

Tex FAIL! Bad hack there.

Cmon A-Rod. Deliver another RBI.

 
Souter Fell says:
 
baka nakamura says:

lets go a-rod! hit this hump.

 
Reggie C. says:

Strike 2 ??

Too high.

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

damn let a good one go by

 
Hall and Nokes says:

The ump just told Alex “yes, you could have put that in the upper deck”

Klemy says:

Yeah, that was “the one” right there.

 
jon says:
 
 
baka nakamura says:
 
Souter Fell says:
 
slappy white says:
 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

son of a bitch that was intentional

 
Alex S says:

wtf stop hitting our boy

 

Oh fuckers.
Notice Youk even that A-Rod got hit twice he didn’t not bitch once.

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Can’t retaliate, unfortunately.

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:

Alex is just pissed now. make him pay, Jorge

 
Riddering says:

BS.

Make them pay, Jorgie.

 
Salty Buggah says:

Cmon Jorge. Make em pay!

 
Reggie C. says:

Arod looks pissed.

 
Will says:

howard needs to get drilled in the head tomorrow! just kidding of course.

 
larryf says:

Gonna be a brawl in this series before it’s over….

baka nakamura says:
 
 
JackC says:

Now would be a good time to stop sucking tonight, Jorge

 
Jersey says:
 

Make that douche pay Jorge.

 
Klemy says:

Waking Arod up be repeatedly hitting him may not be the smartest thing in the world to try this postseason. Though he appears to have opened his eyes and rubbed them already anyway…

 
EB says:

jorge comes through, book it

Jersey says:

Booked. Nicely done.

 
 
bobtaco says:

Here comes another dreadful AB… right Jorge?

bobtaco says:
 
 
ShuutoHeat says:

You can hear the faint HIP HIP!!

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:
 
Souter Fell says:
 

Ugh…that was a walk.

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:
 
Will says:

holy crap that one wasnt even close.

 
Z says:

Seems like a small thing, but now the Yankees only need one more runner and the 9th spot will come up in the 8th, not in the 9th.

 
Esteban says:

Brian Gorman you suck

Esteban says:

I guess he helped LOL

 
 
whozat says:
 
Reggie C. says:

Posada delivers !

 
swisher's fauxhawk says:
 
Doug says:

Glorious insurance.

 
 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

Oh yeah, this is the ump from 1st in Game 2. Now I remember.

 
Jake H says:

In your face Philly

 
JFH says:
 

Huge tack on run. Absolutely huge.

 
Quikksand says:

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Posada delivers!

 
Salty Buggah says:

POSADA!!!!!!!!!!!

Cmon Cano. Make em pay for hitting A-Rod.

 
southernyankeefan says:

HA Jorge didn’t want that to be ball 4 anyway.

 
Riddering says:

NICE.

Even after that shitty ass strike 2 call, Jorgie got a run back.

 
Hall and Nokes says:
 
NYTraveller says:

Way to go Jorge! Now if Cano can be productive here…

 
Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

Thank you up for calling that ball a strike.

 
Count Crapulent says boo to you sir says:

I think all the Yankees are streaky hitters. It’s an adventure.

 
Souter Fell says:

nice, cano, everybody hits tonight

 
Klemy says:

Odds that Cano wakes the hell up here?

 
claybeez says:

Welcome to the party, Jorge.

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:

gj JP, do it for Laura!

 
slappy white says:

way to make em pay for that horrible strike 2 call Jorge

Cano is due too! Gotta add a couple more runs to feel comfortable with the bullpen.

Esteban says:

That was an awful swing Cano
