  1. Evil Empire says:

    9 outs until Mo!

  2. ansky says:

    hope the hammy’s ok.

  3. bobtaco says:

    He looked like he pulled up and grabbed at the back of his right leg

  4. Riddering says:

    Too bad Cano couldn’t help with that either.

    Hope that Melky is okay.

  5. crapula says:

    Where is Billy Martin when you need him????

  6. G FUnk says:

    Id prefer to start the 7th with Matsui Jeter Damon….

  7. Salty Buggah says:

    Cmon CC. Gimme a quick clean inning so you could go 7.

  8. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    I don’t want a phone with social skills. I want a phone that will call, receive calls, take messages. I don’t need to shop for cheese wheels on the subway.

  9. e mills says:

    ruh roh!

    /scooby doo’d

  10. ansky says:

    fuck I hope Melky’s ok.

  11. Klemy says:

    Grit and gut factor just went up 100%

  12. Mike bk says:

    so is this it for cc and hideki leads off?

  13. Brian says:

    Lets Go Gardner! Time to step up! Hopefully this is a really minor injury to Melky.

  14. Evil Empire says:

    Damn I hope Melky is ok. But to be honest, I don’t mind Gardner in the lineup right now.

  15. baka nakamura says:

    yes!

  16. Salty Buggah says:

    I hope Melkman is OK.

  17. bobtaco says:

    Great sequence, ZZ!

  18. Esteban says:

    No me gusta que Leche esta lastimado

  19. Riddering says:

    Keep it going, CC.

  20. slappy white says:

    If CC has an easy inning , we let him bat right ?

  21. The Only Yankee Fan in Nebraska says:

    What if I don’t want to be welcomed into your broadcast booth?

  22. Brian says:

    Double play please!

  23. Dela G says:

    let’s go grit

  24. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    McCarver is senile, right? Right? Speaking of Joe Girardi? No one was speaking of Joe Girardi!

  25. baka nakamura says:

    blanton=brilliant

    sabathia= pretty good

    someone pee in joe bucks mug please.

  26. swisher's fauxhawk says:

    Don’t try moving, Cano.

  27. Moshe Mandel says:

    Are you kidding me???? I can’t do this anymore.

  28. Salty Buggah says:

    Damn Feliz. Good FB to hit there. Cmon DP PLEASE!!

  29. Dela G says:

    damn you pedro feliz

    i hate that guy

  30. cjc says:

    what now we can’t get Feliz out

  31. Riddering says:

    Let’s go double play!

  32. Klemy says:

    Chan Hoe Bushface

  33. Salty Buggah says:

    OK CC. PLEASE NO runs here. PLEASE! I beg you! PLEASE!

  34. Esteban says:

    Joe Blanton looks like a little fatter version of Swisher

  35. crapula says:

    Was Robbie’s goal to “get to” the World Series and now that he’s there he has no clue what to do?

  36. cjc says:

    so Mr.. Buck was Blanton outing “terrific”?

  37. Accent Shallow says:

    Are all these meetings really necessary?

  38. JackC says:

    Wow — Chan Ho Park going for the “Let It Be” era McCartney look

  39. MikeD says:

    Usually when a player grabs his leg like that it’s not good. Even a minor tweak can take a player out of action for a few games. A more serious one can be a week or two.

  40. Evil Empire says:

    Oh good, middle reliever time next time Yankees bat. Daddy likes.

  41. e mills says:

    Buck w/ the premature ejaculation right there

  42. Helix C says:

    Does CC bat in the 7th?

  43. Riddering says:

    Six more outs to Mo.

  44. Salty Buggah says:

    Haha, these Philly fans get excited for nothing. Good shit CC

  45. Klemy says:

    HITS A REALLY AVERAGE FLY ALL IN TO CENTER THAT GARDNER CATCHES EASILY.

  46. cjc says:

    Jesus relax Buck it was a routine ball to Gardner you can’t will it into a hit you dbag

  47. Tom Zig says:

    Time to feast on the bullpen

  48. JoeFromBayRidge says:

    Thank you for 6 innings CC. See you at game 7 if we need you. Its time for Hitdeki.

  49. Joe D. says:

    Ultra-sheer silver lining: As much as I like Melky, he is the most easily replaceable player in our lineup.

    Well done, CC. 7 pitch inning, despite pitching to four batters, and one of them being a 3-pitch KO of Ibanez.

    Milt, I believe you were saying something about “making him throw pitches”?

  50. Stadium Garlic Fries says:

    Buck got pretty excited there..

  51. Evil Empire says:

    CC should be leading off this inning, right?

  52. JobaWockeeZ says:

    CC at 95. One more inning? I say yes.

  53. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    Outside of House, a show I think is in decline, is there a worse network than Fox?

  54. Dela G says:

    can CC go one more inning?

    i would love for him to do that

  55. ansky says:

    Wait, so Joe Buck is going to Afghanistan? God, I hope he cant get back. He could be the biggest bomb we drop on them.

  56. MikeD says:

    So do you let CC hit? Since we have the lead, I have more faith in him for another inning than I do going to the pen.

  57. Jay says:

    CC gets out of the inning.

    But he looks uncomfortable.

  58. Salty Buggah says:

    Time to hopefully feast off of Park.

  59. crapula says:

    Just say no to Game 7

  60. e mills says:

    ehh, I guess you PH. CC hasn’t exactly had his way with 1-2 hitters today.

  61. Tank Foster says:

    Time for batting practice vs. Park.

  62. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    It looks like Park has a fake beard.

  63. Brian says:

    C’mon CC! Rip one out of the park!

  64. chriskeo says:

    CC will pitch the 7th.

  65. Cano's A War Hero says:

    So i’m sure it’s been mentioned… but is Ozzie Guillen kidding during the pregame? Come on Phillies we can still do this and win in 6

  66. G FUnk says:

    How about that spit ball???

  67. PsiFighter37 says:

    Guess that means CC is still in the game next inning.

  68. slappy white says:

    he wears a disguise because he sucks so bad

  69. cjc says:

    hmm kind of surprised here

  70. bobtaco says:

    CC, take a pitch, Big Guy…

  71. Salty Buggah says:

    CC was going for the moon there. Cmon Park, give him a a fat pitch.

    Damn

  72. EB says:

    CC swinging HARD.

  73. Ed says:

    The bat in CCs’ hand looks small.

  74. Jake H says:

    Did he spit on that ball to start the inning?

  75. Josh K says:

    What’s with the Phillies mini-mullets? The whole friggin’ team has them.

  76. Gushue says:

    Is it just me or does CC look like he is sick

  77. Souter Fell says:

    let’s put this outta range and have a well rested mo on the mound tomorrow night

  78. Accent Shallow says:

    Yankees suck? Surely, you mean “Chan Ho Park sucks”, no?

  79. Klemy says:

    I would like to see Jeter go here…maybe just me?

  80. slappy white says:

    Those “Yankees Suck” chants are getting weaker and weaker

  81. baka nakamura says:

    make park pay for that walk.

  82. Mike Axisa says:

    Send Jeter. Do it.

  83. Dela G says:

    steal jeter steal

  84. Klemy says:

    Park isn’t exactly being stealthy about going to the plate.

  85. Brazilian Yankee says:

    That’s an ugly AB.

  86. Jay says:

    Tex is up and he stays true to form, A-Rod will lead off another inning.

  87. Evil Empire says:

    Shitty AB by Damon. Pick him up, Tex!

  88. bobtaco says:

    Every time Johnny looks like he is back, he drops one of those terrible ABs

  89. Salty Buggah says:

    Tex goes deep…

  90. Dela G says:

    cmon tex

  91. Frigidevil says:

    I sure could use a teix message right about now…

  92. EB says:

    tex goes deep right here

  93. Salty Buggah says:

    Ugh Tex. Don’t pull that outside pitch

  94. Evil Empire says:

    6 outs ’til Mo.

  95. Klemy says:

    Can’t get to Chan Ho…man.

  96. swisher's fauxhawk says:

    I’m so impressed that we’re in a position to win with Tex hitting like garbage.

    • Mike Pop says:

      Cause the 2009 New York Yankees are the balls.

    • AJ says:

      If you think about it, the Yankees have been consistently been winning without many of their position players producing. They’ve rode their pitching and some timely hitting, but only a few of their hitters are consistently producing.

  97. Brazilian Yankee says:

    Most important half inning of the season so far coming up next. We need a shutdown inning.

  98. PsiFighter37 says:

    Goddammit Mark, you need to sit down with Kevin Long, too.

    It’s pretty shocking the Yankees could be up 3-1 given how shitty Tex, A-Rod, and Cano are hitting this series.

  99. Mike Pop says:

    If CC makes it through the inning here. It’s ova.

  100. Klemy says:

    Avatar looks stupid, but Sherlock Holmes = cool.

  101. baka nakamura says:

    man, cmon cc. quick inning here.

  102. Dave G says:

    9 outs away. C’mon guys, hold on

  103. Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

    Texeira looking awful. What’s he doing reaching for that? It’s a miracle we’ve gotten this far with almost zero contribution from our our 3 hitter

  104. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    Missed opportunity. Jeter should have run, Damon looked pretty bad and Tex took a bad swing. Bummer. Ah well.

  105. ShuutoHeat says:

    OMG NOT THE BLACKBERRY COMMERCIAL!!!!

  106. Stadium Garlic Fries says:

    After three rounds of playoffs..I am still waiting for a big night from Tex and Cano

  107. dalelama says:

    Melky and Posada are hitting crappy also…….

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

      i’ll cut the negativity off there. we learned against the injuns and tigers, pitching wins in october

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

    as mark gets older, do you think he will use the whole field more or just pull later and harder?

  109. dalelama says:

    It is like we have 6 auto outs in this game….

  110. MikeD says:

    What’s CC’s pitch count?

  111. Jake H says:

    I want a nice easy inning here. IT would make me feel a ton better.

  112. slappy white says:

    COME ON CC FINISH STRONG

  113. bobtaco says:

    Looks like CC gets the first two batters…

  114. Mike Pop says:

    Utley’s hair annoys me.

  115. Brazilian Yankee says:

    CC looks really tired.

  116. Moshe Mandel says:

    Throw strikes, I beg of you.

  117. Brazilian Yankee says:

    uuuge out

  118. baka nakamura says:

    nice play.

  119. yankees=warriors says:

    Good stop by A-Rod!

  120. Klemy says:

    At a boy Arod.

  121. bobtaco says:

    Thatta boy Arod!

  122. chriskeo says:

    So does Marte split the 8th with Joba?
    Assuming no blow up inning here.

  123. Salty Buggah says:

    Hot shot to the hot corner…phew

  124. Dave G says:

    Big out getting Jimmy

  125. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    Put your body into it, A-Rod. Starting to make up for that bad D the past few games.

  126. swisher's fauxhawk says:

    Atta boy A-Rod.

    Suck it, Rollins.

  127. ansky says:

    Look at AROD getting in front of that. Was that Roger Dorne?

    • Accent Shallow says:

      Come on, there’s shitty things you can say about A-Rod, but not wanting to win isn’t one of them.

  128. slappy white says:

    CC=Centaur

  129. Mike Axisa says:

    I’m almost certain CC is in through Ibanez, unless it gets out of hand. Then you can go right to Mo.

  130. Klemy says:

    Joe Buck with the pitch count.

  131. cjc says:

    so we now get a running pitch count from Buck

  132. Yankeefan91 Arod fan says:

    2 outs

  133. Mike Pop says:

    Relax Philly and Joe Buck.

    CC’s got this.

  134. Brazilian Yankee says:

    2 hard hit balls but 2 outs…I’m liking it.

  135. Salty Buggah says:

    2 hard hit balls but right at people.

    One more CC.

  136. Klemy says:

    Those are the liners we always seem to hit. It feels good when they are hit to us.

  137. Esteban says:

    Relax Joe Buck

  138. baka nakamura says:

    one more cc.

  139. TJ says:

    Poor Joe Buck he was so excited during Victorino’s line-out

  140. cjc says:

    get Utley and save Marte to start the 8th come on CC

  141. Tank Foster says:

    Good Lord Buck is a jerk. Loud outs my ass.

  142. baka nakamura says:

    stee-rike.

  143. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    I know we’ve been yapping about the level of production we’re gotten out of Tex and Cano, but let’s give it up to Jeter. We’re nowhere near the position we’re in without his amazing production.

  144. Dave G says:

    One more big man

  145. Tank Foster says:

    Joba and Marte pitch the 8th.

  146. cjc says:

    strike 2

  147. Klemy says:

    Damn, that was a nice pitch.

  148. yankees=warriors says:

    Careful CC, 1 more strike!

  149. yankees=warriors says:

    Not AGAIN…

  150. Yankeefan91 Arod fan says:

    aa shyt

  151. PsiFighter37 says:

    Ah FUCK IT.

  152. JMK aka The Overshare says:

    Not again!

  153. Salty Buggah says:

    WTF? Utley again?!

  154. Mike Pop says:

    Awwww shit.

  155. Dela G says:

    fucking chase utley

    fuck fuck fuck fuck

  156. Klemy says:

    Well shit.

  157. southernyankeefan says:

    FUCK CHASE UTLEY.

  158. bobtaco says:

    Buck-gasm. Muther-fucker.

  159. baka nakamura says:

    fuck. owns cc.

  160. Tank Foster says:

    Dang. Well, get Howard.

  161. JobaWockeeZ says:

    I really really can’t wait to stop seeing Utley.

  162. Riddering says:

    I hate it when my nightmares become reality.

  163. cjc says:

    unfuckingreal

  164. Jay says:

    Joe just creamed in his pants.

  165. Mike Axisa says:

    That was a hanger. Right pitch, bad execution.

  166. Accent Shallow says:

    Well, he was bound to hang a slider eventually.

  167. Joe D. says:

    Dang.

  168. swisher's fauxhawk says:

    Same spot….

  169. PsiFighter37 says:

    Why didn’t he try to blow one by him in a pitcher’s count? Too much off-spread shit…

  170. TJ says:

    Why do you keep doing that CC?

  171. Salty Buggah says:

    That was a hanger.

  172. Brazilian Yankee says:

    Bad decision comes back to haunt you. How can you let CC pitch to Utley with over 100 pitches after everything we saw during this WS?

  173. yankees=warriors says:

    Still, great outing by the big man again.

  174. Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

    CC’s brain seems to shut off when pitching to Utley. Why give him a hittable pitch with 2 strikes?

  175. Hova says:

    CC should have just plunked him and given him first base before he was taken out. Fuck Chase Utley.

  176. Dela G says:

    well good job cc, you did your best

  177. fscott19 says:

    each homerun was on the same pitch

  178. Josh K says:

    Utley…lay down and lick yourself.

  179. Mike Pop says:

    It’s alright. Still got the lead.

  180. charlespoet says:

    Well that sucks….

    Per Waldman and Sterling, extra security has been added because of coins being thrown and Cabrera and Swisher…. Now there is class.

  181. Klemy says:

    Everytime it’s with 2 strikes too. Damn. Hope our offense is up for adding a couple runs.

  182. E-ROC says:

    Utley pretty much waited on that slider.

  183. NYFan50 says:

    This is going to be a scary 7 outs.

  184. Joker, The says:

    I want Chase Ugly to die. Honestly. Just drop dead.

  185. Brian says:

    Ugh that is beyond frustrating. Well hopefully they get Howard and then the Yankee offense can talk on a few runs. I hate close games.

  186. Mike Axisa says:

    Man, I’d have left CC in to get Howard.

  187. DreDog says:

    CC has the heart of a lion. There was no way I thought he would make it into the 7th after the first two innings. I am glad he is on the right team.

  188. Jake H says:

    Hanger. Yankee O needs to get some stuff going. Give the BP a little breathing room. What bothers me is that now Rollins will be up at the end of the 9th if they are clean til the 9th.

  189. Tank Foster says:

    I wonder if anyone will make a comment about the Phillies “living on the long ball.” That’s what they’d be saying about the Yankees now.

  190. Jay says:

    6 and 2/3, 3 earned runs. That’s still a quality start.

    Not worried.

  191. AJ says:

    When this series is over, I will be happy to not have to see Utley until next season.

    Marte needs to get a huge out here. Then the Yanks bats need to rough up the pen a little bit. C’mon boys!

  192. slappy white says:

    Come on Marte, no fuck ups

  193. Moshe Mandel says:

    You can’t throw 5 straight sliders to a hitter of that caliber. You just can’t.

  194. Klemy says:

    I cannot relax now until Mo nails this down.

  195. Joe D. says:

    Utley is certainly a pain in the ass.

    Still, close game in the late innings, and we have the lead.

    Confidence Level still not wavering.

  196. Riddering says:

    I forgot what it’s like to watch a World Series and be so emotionally invested in every moment.

  197. fscott19 says:

    yeah, leave CC for howard at this point

  198. Ghost of Scott Brosius says:

    Considering howard’s level of ineptitude, why do we continue to let utley beat us?

  199. Evil Empire says:

    Man, Utley really has CC’s number this season. But CC did his damn job, better believe that. We still got this game in the bag.

  200. crapula says:

    There’s no need to moan about CC to Utley. I think the O showing up might negate that altogether.

  201. Tank Foster says:

    Offense Yankees Offense.

  202. Dela G says:

    marte brings da heat

  203. Brazilian Yankee says:

    Utley up to that point had 2 homers and a double that missed being a homer by 5 feet. All of that in 2 games during this WS. Why let CC pitch to him? That’s another moronic decision by Joe G. that might cost us a game.

  204. PsiFighter37 says:

    Alright, time for the nightly Marte strikeout of Howard.

  205. Mike Pop says:

    Get em Damaso, get em!

  206. Salty Buggah says:

    Utley has that look of content on his face

  207. JobaWockeeZ says:

    Yeah it’s gone to the point where you need to IBB Utley. Howard isn’t exactly tearing up the ball.

  208. Dave G says:

    6 more outs. C’mon offense.
