Game 72: Crap, another bad pitcher
ByEarlier this year the Yanks were scheduled to face Dontrelle Willis, but he was a late scratch. The Yanks ended up facing a string of Tigers relievers, demonstrating mostly futility against them. The Yanks lost the game, managing just four runs off the Tigers six relievers. Dontrelle has since been designated for assignment and sent to the Diamondbacks, where he’s allowed seven runs through 15 innings. long the way he’s walked more than he’s struck out, and holds a 1.80 WHIP.
Stephen R. explored the Dontrelle saga today at TYU, so in case you’re not up on tonight’s starter give that a quick read.
Posada gets the night off tonight, which makes sense for a number of reasons. Using him on back-to-back nights and then giving him two nights off is probably physically for the better. Also, it gave him a chance against Haren, while the Yanks might not need their best lineup against Dontrelle. Then again, considering how they’ve hit in the past week-plus against poor pitching, maybe I shouldn’t be making that assumption.
Lineup:
1. Derek Jeter, SS
2. Nick Swisher, RF
3. Mark Teixeira, 1B
4. Alex Rodriguez, 3B
5. Robinson Cano, 2B
6. Francisco Cervelli, C
7. Curtis Granderson, CF
8. Brett Gardner, LF
9. Javy Vazquez, P

Can we all just collectively laugh at the idea of Francisco Cervelli protecting the best hitter in the league?
Just the mention of Dontrelle’s name bums me out. He was so exciting, so much fun to watch a few years ago and he seemed to lose it for reasons that have never been fully explained. There have been hints at his delivery, but it’s not like he blew out his shoulder or something.
My guess is his conditioning and delivery were the problem. Just a guess.
Seriously. I loved him a lot. He was so fun to watch, like you said. And now he’s just…
Yea. agreed. I always end up shaking my head whenever I think about his downfall.
Agreed. One of those guys that was just exciting to watch, and baseball is a sport where if you aren’t a fan, games are a bore. Dontrelle was one of those guys that even non-baseball fans might tune into watch, because it was a show.
Completely agree. I don’t need the guy to be a Cy Young candidate, but it’d be nice if he was at least a #3-4 starter.
We have to face another good-hitting pitcher tonight
Hopefully he’s out of the game by the time he has to hit though. Mwahaha.
I want to see a blowout win tonight. It’ll be the last time I see the Yankees for the next two weeks.
Arizona continues to celebrate the 9th anniversary of their Championship.
Seriously.
I’m so sure it’s a total coincidence they announced Gonzo’s getting his number retired while the Yankees are in town.
They can only celebrate the 9th anniversary for a year, so they might as well live it up.
OK, raise your hand if you had RA Dickey on your fantasy team.
I heart late games when I’m also on the west coast. Go Javy!
Whats with Cervelli batting over Granderson and Gardner. I get the whole lefty, lefty thing, but I don’t know. That could be pushing it.
If Jeter swung at the first pitch I would have been very mad at him.
No one should swing until he has a strike.
Willis looks sharp.
As a spoon.
…as silly putty
Nice job, Swish. Great start. Looks like we’ll get into the Zona bullpen early, too.
this might be too easy…
why swish????
That’s about the only way Willis is recording an out at this rate.
That was fucking dumb.
Seriously, that was a terrible fucking move. Why give this guy any sort of outs? Awful play, Swisher/whoever called that.
Tell me about it. F’ing stupid to give a free out to a guy who hasn’t come anywhere near the strike zone so far.
Don’t be stupid, Swish.
LOL Swisher. That’s probably the only out Willis will record.
thanks a lot, swish. a-rod could’ve driven in three here
no one should feel sorry for him. he somehow duped the tigers into giving him a great extension
that said… yikes!
Willis should break his arm a la Henry Rowengartner. That might cure him.
/Rookie of the Year’d
He needs DeNunez to teach him the heater.
“Ow. I broke my arm”
-Al Czervik
Give him the cheese! Give him the HIGH! STINKY! CHEDDAR!
Wow.
Watching Dontrelle implode is not my idea of fun. Makes me kinda sad.
Same here.
This is NJ’s wet dream.
hahahaha he’s begging cashman to somehow change the DL stint
Well done haha
this is like watching the demise of rick ankiel. That was interesting to watch waaay back in the day
Strike zone, where you at?
This is making me really sad actually.
D-Train =(
This is like watching a ten year old pitch. Wow. I feel terrible for Willis right now.
Is Rick Ankiel on the mound?
Dontrelle has actually been non-awful against lefties this year: .197/.289/.273 this year, although only 77 PA. Does have a 26/8 K/BB ratio, though.
is Cano spotting Dontrelle strikes?
WTF?!
What in the fuck are they doing? What a terrible fucking inning.
holy crap what the hell was that??????????
super ugh
Lol.
Awful. The guy’s begging to be hammered, don’t run into outs you idiots.
Um.
Really? Really? Really?
—_____—
The way the inning ended pissed me off.
Tex stealing third is hilarious.
Yankees: STOP RUNNING INTO FUCKING OUTS WHEN THE GUY CAN’T THROW A STRIKE, SERIOUSLY
Also I think he was safe but that doesn’t matter, DON’T DO THAT
He definitely looked out on the replay.
I hope Teixeira wasn’t running on initiative … what a stupid stupid idea.
Is Jeter the only one who knows how to play while on base? That was ridiculous.
Make hay whilst the sun shines, Yanks
that inning was inexcusable..
As bad as Willis was that inning, one would have a pretty decent argument that the Yanks’ baserunning was even more craptastic. Some of the dumbest baserunning you’re going to see in 1 inning, considering the context.
I think that argument would be correct. It is beyond moronic to hand two free outs to a pitcher who clearly can’t throw strikes. They better buck that trend from hereon in and actually make Willis get them out.
Totally agreed. Gross. Didn’t mind Swisher going when he did all that much, but Teixeira???
Clearly, whatever Dontrelle has is transmissible by mound.
Javy let’s not get Dontrelleitis, thanks.
It’s contagious via the mound.
You owe me a beer.
I like porter.
4-pitch walk.. this is probably going to be one of those 10-8 games.
This game has four hours written all over it.
I am not liking this. Come on, Javy.
This infield is terrible.
cmon javy….
Come on Javy. Get your shit together man.
This game is gonna be loooong.
It’s the game of crappy baserunning gaffes.
Worst. Running. Ever.
Baserunning fails all across.
I can’t believe he was sent there
Keystone Kops on both sides tonight
That sequence had FAIL all over the place…
is this Baltimore/Houston or what?
damn Cervelli, is he fucking blind?
This game is made up of baserunning fail.
They could have gotten him at second had Cervelli immediately thrown the ball once he got the out.
boy this is incredible
its like watching a little league game
ha. exactly. The only fundamentally sound plays were by Swish hitting the cut, Tex cutting it off and then running at the runner. It all went to shit after that.
And then Cervelli starts arguing and forgets about the runners. Rookie mistake.
Chuck Knoblauch
yup. I actually wrote he pulled a Knoblauch, then botched him name and decided to delete it, ha.
The Bad News Bears Game of the Week
Sloppy sloppy baseball
watching on gameday what happened?
First and second, single to right, runner ran through the stop sign, and out after a rundown.
Cervelli wasn’t paying attention after the tag, and the runners moved up.
Javy needs a punchout here. Come on, Javy.
lol i was just about to mention tom emanski myself in this post, and kay took it from me
where did that miss?
Where was that pitch??
Wow, where did that miss?
Wow where was that pitch?
This inning sucks.
Bad Javy showing up tonight
damn it ump, that was ridiculous
plz someone get a ground ball
Vazquez needs alittle of Dontrelle’s 1st inning luck right about now.
Double play! Double play!
clapclap clapclap clap
Well, if tonight is going to be a battle of pitching suck, I feel confident that the Yanks will win. But it’ll be the definition of Pyrrhic victory.
Except if Javy doesn’t calm down, which he probably will, we have an actual bullpen.
Wouldn’t a pyrrhic victory be a victory against an NL team where we burn the bullpen, prior to a September series against a contender for the AL East or wild card?
Not necessarily. That’d make the cost that much more excessive but wouldn’t eliminate what had to be given up tonight to get the desired outcome. If what’s been posited actually happens and we have to shred our bullpen, it’d be pretty pyrrhic, just not AS pyrrhic as your situation IMO.
Come on guys.
Nice pitching there Javy.
Javy!!!
You got this Javy!
Yes! Two down. Now just one more…
Nice breaking ball. Do it again, please!
Almost out of the jam, just one more.
Michael Kay: apparently not a strong swimmer.
With a head that size, you’d think he would float.
Javy 9 strikes 16 balls. not a very good start.
*pitch
oops
That many pitches alone is a disaster, let alone the ratio.
Nice pitck, now k ‘im!
pitch
Generous call there but I’ll take it
Oh now you’re calling that a strike…
Way to buckle down.
Cmon Ump, give him a break
lucky for Javy he’s not at the stadium or he would be hearing a lot of boos by now
That was the worst inning of baseball I’ve ever seen. Ever.
Unbelievable
Uhg.
wow great throw by swisher
i’ll take it as long as there weren’t any more runs scored
now lets be patient, offense…
what crap, ugh!
Facepalms all around….
What a shit inning by both sides.
Maybe the worst 1st inning of baseball fundamentals you’ll ever see…
And that’s why any team can’t afford to make baserunning mistakes against a struggling pitcher.
And that’s why you don’t make baserunning mistakes.
-J. Walter Weatherman
This game is gonna be long.
And painful.
4 out of 6 outs on the basepaths o_O
worst full inning of baserunning ever??
yeah i think this tops whatever i think i may have seen in my lifetime prior to that first inning
And…that sucked.
Okay, here’s what’ll happen: beat up on Dontrelle this inning, score 4+ runs and Javy settles into a groove, not giving up any more runs.
Now we just need to get the Yankees to execute my plan.
That inning set baseball back 100 years.
Does that mean all the minorities on the field magically disappear?
An exercise for the obsessed (or racist):
Remove from the rosters anyone with a skin tone that would have resulted in them being barred from the majors pre-1947.
See which team has the best remaining roster.
On the bright side, Boston’s losing and Tampa’s slumping in general.
Can’t wait to see who Girardi plays hit and run with this inning. What a horrible manager.
He’s quite a good manager actually.
Over/Under: 12 hours for that match.
Yes, a Yankee game, unless it was just a game where a team was beating them by a ton.
WTF is he bunting for?
Why bunt? Why not take 4-5 pitches?
Wow. I think I may turn this shit off. What the HELL are you doing, Cervelli?
BUNTING??!?!?!?!
what the hell is this
BUNTING? Wtf!
Why the hell would he bunt???????
Why bunt there? Why?
Holy. Fucking. Shit. Stop fucking running into outs and bunting. He can’t throw strikes.
Is this game a retard test?
O_o
Cervelli is on drugs tonight. Why the fuck is he bunting?
Yankees what in the world are you doing, seriously
This is nuts… they really want to give this game away…
dont worry kay, im freakin out too
Screw this shit. GIVING at bats away, against a crappy pitcher?
I’m going to bed.
can we beat the crap out of him already, plz?
Bunt?
Why not help out Willis more!
yay #6 hitter bunting.
wow john lackey really sucks
can’t believe they gave him that much money
Inside the park homerun NAOz!
Man the Yanks are killing me right now after that 1st and now Cerv bunting? ugh. I hope Javy can straighten this game out in the bottom.
Gardy disagrees.
Nice umping.
This game is going to make me sad, isn’t it?
wow that strike zone was completely different from what javy had
bullshit
Fucking kidding me?
Pa. Thetic.
Well, Dontrelle found himself.
After an inning?
Yanks lost themselves
Uhhhhh…no.
WTF kind of call was THAT?
I’m going to say something that has already been said thousands of times….
Robot UMPs NAO!
Calm down, Michael Kay.
Alex doesn’t consider himself to be a HR hitter. Talk about humility.
Fuck that; if I had A-Rod’s power, I’d look to hit homers every damn time.
Enjoy becoming Mark Reynolds.
Hey. Give me some credit here. You know how much I love Adam Dunn–that’s who I’d emulate.
What’s Alex is trying to say Kay, is that he’s not like some people who hit a HR or nothing. cough**Ryan Howard**cough
What the fuck is this?
That was a weird ground ball.
At this rate, if Javy makes it through four, it’ll be a miracle.
1 pitch outs!
darnell mcdonald and daniel nava have utterly destroyed ubaldo jiminez tonight
What the fuck? How are they both 2-3 and have all 5 RBIs?
I saw some statistic that shows that these guys are getting incredibly clutch hits. Of course, he was showing how awesome the Red Sox have been.
What does this likely mean for the rest of the season? Regression is a bitch, baby.
Fucking Red Sox scored 5 runs off Jimenez. Bullshit.
Those 2 outs in 2 pitches were much appreciated.
At least that inning didn’t make we wan to claw out my eyes.
Is there a full moon tonight?
Lackey is 2-3 with a double tonight against Jimenez
He has now doubled his WAR for the season.
Of course Ubaldo has to regress now ;_;
In other news, TCU scored 8 runs in the top of the 8th and FSU is going to LOOOOOOOOSE!
muahahahahaha. Gators and Seminoles eliminated on back-to-back days? Me likey.
Is Ubaldo Jiminez, gasp, human?
He can be human the rest of the season, but why tonight against the Red Sox?
(*&%$#$%^&*#$%^@#@#$%^&*()
red sox lead 6-5
unbelievable
Remember, they are in Coors. There is still time to come back.
Good AB by Javy.
7 pitches!
Haha Javy walked.
If Jeter bunts here, I’ll fly to Phoenix and kill them all right now.
D-Train just walked the pitcher. For the love of Mo, make him pay.
Javy attends the Nick Johnson School of Hitting.
cervelli on the other hand…
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAH!!!!!!!
At least it was constructive in that we have a good base runner.
good Jeter crushes that hanging breaking ball
bad Jeter grounds out weakly
Close.
I think someone needs to do an actual study of that conventional wisdom Kay and Singy just spouted.
How can you swing at that?
good job swisher
Willis might be as bad as his bullpen.
I think we’ll get either an A-rod GS or an A-rod rbi walk.
knowing our luck he will pop-up
i just wonder what the D-backs were thinking when they signed him
I wish the Yankees wouldn’t swing AT ALL until he’s got two strikes on them.
I’m confused. Earlier in this thread I read Dontrelle found himself. What is happening right now?
He found himself to be deathly afraid of pitching strikes to major league hitters.
If Tex swings, I’ll slit his throat with a spork.
He’s asking for it. Fucking give it to him already.
Time to channel their inner NJ!
What is more depressing to see your pitcher give up, a bases loaded walk or a GS?
Bases loaded walk.
GS. 4 > 1
This is pathetic, I’m embaressed for the guy.
Its quite sad watching this implosion
Really Alex?
Umm, he was just trying to extend the pitch count?
Make him throw strikes.
Wow, Alex. Come on.
Attn: Cameron Diaz if you’re reading this:
Do not give Alex any after that 2-0 “swing.”
Why would you swing at anything Alex? Why?
If im A-Rod, im not swinging at all…unless it’s down the middle.
Tie game.
Great at bat by ARod..
Relax guys, Alex only swung at those to draw extra pitches.
I like this optimism.
There is no point in even swinging against this guy.
Can someone just put this fucker out of his misery with a grand slam?
This is one of the most unsatisfying games I have ever watched.
This is pathetic and embaressing.
Not a grand slam, but I guess I’ll take it.
I don’t get it, Cano has absolutely nooooo split, why try to use one?
What do you even say to Willis at this point?
Wanna try soccer?
how do you feel about 1st base or the outfield.
Time to switch meds?
Good thing you signed that extension when you did.
YAYYYY TIME TO DESTROY THE ARIZONA BULLPEN AGAIN!!!
2.1 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 7 BB, 2 K.
Lets add to that line.
Now to attack the even softer underbelly….
Sad. My heart breaks a little for Dontrelle.
so you blame Girardi… just kidding.
I gotta say, it was kinda sad to watch Dontrelle pitch like this…
Was watching the Sox v Rockies. Jimenez was pitching ok but obvious that the better AL East teams could bring his numbers back down to earth.
wow, 7 BB’s in 2.1 innings… I sincerely feel bad for him.
After 2003, fuck him.
From bad to worse.
Dontrelle’s BB/9 for this game is 27. Twenty. Seven.
Don’t swing at that Cano!
Wow. The Yankees are really swinging at garbage tonight.
Yea. I dislike it.
Who didn’t see that coming?
Darn it
Cano…Ya killing me.
Wow guys, 7 walks and just 2 runs.
unfucking believable
Aaah! Why!
I can’t believe he just did that…
Don’t panic guys. Their bullpen is atrocious. It will be alright.
I’m not worried about this game, but it’s a continuation of the Yankees’ inability to score runs in key situations.
This.
Yankees are doing well in important situations.
High Leverage Situations: 116 sOPS+
When Behind: 116 sOPS+
RISP: 121 sOPS+
2 outs, RISP: 115 sOPS+
Overall as a team: 118 sOPS+
Recently.
2.1 innings. 7 walks. 2 runs.
My eyes don’t need your sOPS+
Good God. Between the baserunning outs, the bunting and the swinging at pitches when they can’t throw strikes …
Until Arizona pitchers prove they can actually throw the ball in the strike zone, TAKE. A. STRIKE.
…DAMN IT DAMN IT!!!! ARGH!!
There was supposed to be a DEATH BLOW!!!
2009 Cano
This is some epic failure by the yankees offense. I wonder what other ways they can find to avoid scoring on this horrible pitching staff.
damn it all to hell… Cano’s saving it for later in the game
So, he gives up one hit for the no-decision.
The minislump.
that was like watching old yeller getting shot
very sad
I’d say more like in “Austin Powers” when they kept trying to kill Will Ferrell’s character but couldn’t quite do it.
Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htRHj3tyYyo
ha this is so true
Hey, look at that! A clean inning of baseball!
9 pitches for the last 5 outs.
So, has Javy looked good? Strike zone seems to be a little tight tonight.
Terrible in the first inning, great after that though it’s been like two innings so.
thank you man.
mean ma’am… sorry can’t type and talk at the same time tonight.
What a shitty trade for us.
Lame trivia question.
Yay Grandy
attaboy curtis
comon Javy, help yourself since your teammates aren’t doing much
that was at his shins??!!?!
way low, this ump blows
javy vasquez = feared
Javy is the interim Nick Johnson, sans injuries.
Fucking HP UMP is a joke…
Vazquez trying to earn back some love.
Nick Johnson is proud of Javy.
Wheeee.
cmon jeter…. that was pathetic
This is horrible.
…I’m still waiting for the death blow.
Jeter is such a great dude. Why let Boyer get himself into more trouble?
I am going to institute a new policy for the Yankees: don’t swing unless you have two strikes. Cool? Cool.
With two strikes the Yankees hit .203/.304/.311
Ouch. Mostly tongue-in-cheek, anyway.
Yeah I figured. Just wanted to dispel it for anyone who believed it. Get this though, that is way above league average.
Can we swap Gardner and Jeter?
/half-kidding
how the hell can you draw 8 walks in 4 innings and only score 2 runs?
Multiple outs on the bases, giving away free outs with leadoff bunts, swinging at pitches feet out of the strike zone when the pitchers have demonstrated they have no idea how to throw a strike, etc.
you are a team mired in an offensive slump and have no idea how to get out of it because you keep chasing bad pitches, watching good pitches and trying to do to much when runners are on base..
Even if the Yankees win this game by like 10 runs it will still go down as one of the ugliest games of 2010.
I’m usually great at Zen baseball but i’m about getting so frustrated right now I could throw a Buddha statue through a window.
Apparently all Monteros are awesome.
That fight with Valverde sent him way up on my list of non-Yankees I really like
This game is beyond frustrating. Bullshit offense.
it is the great pitching they are facing…. expected.
sigh
Fuck.
Not feeling this game.
Why can’t the Yankees do that tonight? Waaaah.
That said, this game is not anywhere NEAR over.
Hi, we’re the NY Yankees, we just lost 2 of 3 to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Can we please be let back into Yankee stadium.
Thank you for this public service announcement.
Haha. I love reading comments like these after the game. Especially after a win.
there even more fun to say during the game because you get such an blistering of reaction from people. Its like no one can make off the cuff negative comments without the entourage baseball geniuses that post here coming attacking you as a troll, idiot, hack, etc…. Would make for a great study on human behavior.
Trust me, I know.
uhh..it’s the 4th inning.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED in 2010!!!!!!
It’s the 5th inning and there’s five inning of Arizona bullpen left to be gotten.
… wrong.
you just get the feeling the dbacks are about to put this game away. Javy has nothing and their offense can actually score when they put runners on base.
I know its not the end of the game…but…
…this is what happens when you fail multiple times to land a death blow. When you have your opponent on the ground at your mercy, you stomp and crush them. Don’t give them a hand/chance to get back up on their feet, in fact don’t stop until you know they are dead/incapable of fighting back.
Sun Tzu is that you?
Damn it, don’t blow my cover!
Normally I’m not a cliff-jumper and quite forgiving of the Yankee offense, but I don’t know what positives you can possibly take from this game. They’ve had an awful night at the plate and on the bases, I’m literally shocked at how bad they’ve been tonight. 7 walks in 3 innings and you score only 2 runs? That’s almost impossible to do.
Yep, it’s been terrible. Really embarrassingly bad. There aren’t really excuses.
It’s also been four innings.
Agreed, but these are chances that even mediocre teams take advantage of. For the Yankees to do that? It’s frustrating as heck.
And really, if you’re going to swing at a first pitch in this game you better hit a home run.
Yeah, agreed. Hopefully it changes, though. SIGH.
where the starting pitcher is out, the bullpen is in and they have 2 measly runs, one off a walk and only 2 hits…. but it is only the 5th inning and they have 14 more outs to go.
Exactly. It hasn’t been good. But can still get better.
It’s the D-Backs!
their pitching is dominating. it happens.
It’s not dominating, I’m just frustrating.
*frustrated
“I can’t believe what I just saw” is an appropriate title for this game, for all the wrong reasons.
“I can’t believe what I just saw?” fail

Pretty sure A-rod just molested that poor child.
Something’s cooking.
Come on Cano, break out of your mini-slump.
Do something Robbie. I beg of you.

that play right there sealed the game….ok maybe not but with the bad play by the Yankees and the offense that cannot turn it on right now… wow!
I just cried. Not really, but WTF.
That was
How is it that we keep messing up innings due to shitty base running?
fail fail and more fail… somebody needs to be punished after this bullshit. Each inning they find new and creative ways to not score runs.
Yea! Fire Girardi! Fire Cashman! Fire Steinbrenner! Take down the Montero watch!
When was the last time they made this many baserunning mistakes in one game?
Three outs on the bases. A fucking innings worth.
That’s my cue…pretty sure we can win this but time to go to bed
this outfield catches balls…they catch balls…geez
Thats three double plays for Cano. Only one was his fault
Alex’s reaction: OH SHIT
wow, Cano’s DP’d in every way possible
And only one was his fault, ugh.
Giggity.
What is with Lackey? Are we lucky enough that he really may be done, or is this just a bad stretch?
he’s not worth what they’re paying him
what a joke of a contract
man i need a facepalm
http://www.tlzone.net/forums/a.....cepalm.jpg
Alex made up for his horrible DP with that play.
That guy was wearing a pink kid’s glove.
hahahaha i thought the same thing
And then acted annoyed when ARod didn’t give him the ball if I read that right. I could be wrong on that one.
Great catch!!!
Jeter would have went face first into the family. That is what a real winner does
/MSM’d 2009 style
LOL @ dude with tiny lil kid’s glove.
Hahahaha, did u see A-Rod dis the shit out of the father there?!
Yea, I saw that too. Kinda ballsy of the father though to act as if he deserved the ball and all pissed that he didn’t get it.
Lmaooo. I guess once he saw the pink glove, he was like no you sissy boy, u ain’t getting the ball…
PapelBLOWN!
Papelbon blows the save. Ha.
hahahahahaha paplebon blew the save
Papelbon blows the save! Yay for sort of happy news!!!

OK, that’s a big hit. Time to stop playing around and take hold of this stupid game.

He still plays? Good for him.

Thats a lot of speed on the base paths.
Jason Giambi is now a TRUE YANKEE!!!!
I want to see a GritSmash right now.

She’s no Kim Jones though. Right Dela?

Yeah, she’s better.

A base running play works, hallelujah!
I’m ok with that. Well done Gardner
good job, gritt
Better than nothing.
That sb was key.
Good AB by Gardner there.
Gardy = Fundamentally sound right there, thank god.
Well, good thing we stole that base. At least he got a run in.
Alright Curtis. Can you give me a flyball?
Better.
COLIN CURTIS!!!
Colin!!!!
NICE!!!!!!!
COLIN CURTIS!!!!!
Colin Curtis comes through again!!
Yay Lil’ CC.
Colin Curtis cannot be stopped, you can only hope to contain him!
Curtises!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To steal a quote from bald vinny, I hope Colin Curtis goes into the hall of fame as a Yankee.
Mini-CC!
Yay tie game. Colin just alleviated the depressing mood of the game.
He did. I’m born anew in Colin Curtis’s genius.
CC
Laroche thinks he can play Mark Teixera, hehe.
I know it’s been only 3 ABs but Curtis has been impressive. 3 hard hit balls in 3 PH ABs. Very nice kid!
his swing reminds me of jacoby ellsbury for some reason
Yeah, good call.
How fast is Curtis?
Colin Curtis for teh ASG!
/strasburg’d
I bet they put him in the final vote, and I bet he wins it
In an NL park, why is Vazquez the pitcher of record. Isn’t Curtis technically the pitcher?
nope, he’s just a pinch hitter
but it would be funny if Curtis could get the W.
jeter better not bunt
Wish he had.
well a bunt would’ve been better than that…. le sigh
Jeter has nothing recently.
Really Jeter?!?!?!
captain groundout doing what he does best this season…
Robots kill the Gulf.
Now it’s a battle of bullpens. As bad as Arizona’s BP is, I am only cautiously optimistic with how badly this game has gone.
Lol, Alex is among the most hated athletes ever. Don’t hate the player because he’s better than you.
Well this is awesome:
http://www.fangraphs.com/lgrap....._lbig_.png
man, i forgot about marte. haven’t seen him in forever
Marte isn’t gonna enjoy the slim strike zone here.
how did we not score more runs? What happened?
jeter hit a GIDP
Jeter GIDP
Yankees brought together all their abilities and channeled it to ex-Yankee Giambi to help him beat Boston.
IETC
Jesus christ… who is running this offense, British Petroleum?
What’s not to like about 3 inning ending double plays in 6 innings thus far?
Maybe it’s the English football team.
great play by jeter
Marte’s wildness + small strikezone = disaster
Double play ball here.
Drinking that early in the morning? Pass.
ha it’s not as bad as it sounds. makes it much easier to sleep
Our pen vs Theirs… gotta like these odds…
I hear you were a great play.
Wow… Epic Jinx
Musical Actually… and yes I highly recommend it haha..
It’s actually terrible.
Dont base it on the movie… Its a piece of Musical Theatre history good or bad… plus its about baseball how can you go wrong?
I just don’t like the music. It is lame. ;_;
Shit.
you’ve got to be fucking kidding me
Oh Great.
Balk-passed ball fail.
Marte whyyyy
What an ugly game.
I want the varsity Yankee squad back.. this Junior varsity version with sophmore’s and freshman is embarrassing.
wow what a crazy ass play by marte
lol at least they got the out
Laroche > Yanks so far tonight.
This game is so god damn fustrating…
Agreed.
All things considered, nice play by Marte.
man marte is sucking tonight
please get this guy out
reply fail
who had laroche on their fantasy team??
my god he is raking
what’s the number of times you can give a game away before you actually blow it?
Can someone name a more poorly played game by the yanks this season??? I am struggling to think of one… Barring the outcome of this one of course.
Cleveland 13, Yankees 11
That was more of just a bullpen fail than a complete team fail, though. Other than not scoring in the 9th, of course.
Agree 100 percent, thank you very much…. you have eased my pain a bit for this one
and the dodgers are potentially going to lose their 6th in a row. that doesn’t bode well for the weekend.
Happy birthday Phil Hughes
This is the worse win of the season by far.
thank jesus that’s over
I want playoff Marte back. How did he become so dominate there and terrible everywhere else?
how the hell can Girardi trust Marte? It seems like everytime he gets in a game he walks somebody.
HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGHES
Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!
This is where Ace was needed, when’s he getting back, mid-July?
Happy birthday Phil Hughes! Happy 24!
Question that I think I know the answer to: Suppose A-Rod had a hitting streak going; despite walking all three times to the plate, if A-Rod had no more at-bats, his hitting streak would be over, correct?
No. No official at-bat.
That’s when they change it from a hitting streak to a reached base in this many games in a row streak.
So do the Yankees Kay.
Lololol at the Yankees Suck chant from a team that is due for a fire sale at the deadline.
“The ugly pig never looks in the mirror.”
Foul ball?
What just happened?
cmon tex
This is the part where Alex hits a home run.
can only laugh at futility.
…this is one heck of a roller coaster ride
That was ridiculous Tex.
Guys this is getting stinky again.
Indeed, quite the stinker. Takeaways from this series are that Petite is just so gritty, Arod had a homerun, Joba found some gas, and you just can’t predict baseball…..
cmon alex
Come on Offense.
Damn Demel sliced and diced that inning.
This will be one of those really disappointing series. I’m sure alot of us had aspirations of a sweep here and it appears likely we’re going to lose the series. Just, wow.
um how could he swing at that… that was below the knees
k the side? uhg!
Or not. Is this the part where CHoP comes in and gives up two runs?
D-Rob shall restore order in the universe.
So the worst bullpen in the history of MLB just retired our 2-3-4 hitters in order. Definately not our night.
I hope the bullpen can hold the small deficit. They’ve struggled a bit when behind lately.
I am feeling super unzenbaseball but then I saw those home runs off Papelbon. I hadn’t actually seen, I just heard. I now feel better.
I now do not. Aaaagh
Arite, Demel is out. Now feast, damnit!
ugh
It just keeps getting better and better…
There ya go, that really brings it home, a Jeter injury and a play missed by Tex.
Ah crap.
just what we needed… on top of losing the worst game in quite some time, Jeter gets injured. Hope it’s nothing serious.
If we lose today what series would you say was worse against last place teams this one or the one last year against Washington?
Washington
Washington. That was at home, we were behind in the standings, etc.
Nice
great GIDP
Last year’s, definitely. Since they weren’t in first and were scuffling. That was pre-Atlanta.
this game is providing no where near the excitement knowing the Rockies hit two off of Papelbon. Joy in Mudville!
someone show marte that’s how you get shit done
If Cano gets on base to start the 8th i’m calling a win if he makes an out i’m saying this games over. I like our odds with Cano.
OK.
Well I guess we win.
It’s a win!!!
Oh where, oh where, have my yankee offense gone..oh where, oh where cn it be….
Phillies stole it to replace theirs, on their way out of the stadium.
Kay with the Yiddish again
Cano looking bad this ab so far….
As Michael Kay speaks, Cano swings at 3 balls.
Robbie!
and we’re in biznass
Where the hell is Posada?
Yeah, no pinch hit here, foot must not be feeling too good.
he’ll be the next pinch hitter, i bet
Waiting for his double-switch, perhaps. But somehow I doubt that Girardi wants him behind the plate at all. And he probably won’t burn his second catcher for just a pinch-hit.
please dont bunt
aight let’s go curtis
Curtis is going yard.
please don’t fail to score this inning.
Man could something go our way?
That was a foul tip?
It probably was, I’m just cranky and in Twitter jail and stuff.
LOL again?? How do you actually get put into Twitter jail??
cmon grit
please get on base
fuck yes!
cmon jopo!
OK Jorge, it’s all you
Gardy!!!!
shit…
as expected
That Gardner single reminded me of Gonzo’s series winning hit.
/sorry’d
It was in the general location… it was only off by a couple of yards or so.
Ump apparently has a date.
man that sucked major ass
this team is just dreadful
Dude u suck, fuck u getting excited for.
Stupid tease
8+ era bullpen pitcher keeping us off the scoreboard, that seems about right.
boo… pathetic offense.
Wow, with the mega fist pump.
Yeah that fist pump might of trumped Joba’s.
Well at least the annoying rythm this game had continues.
I hate games like this! Leaving 17 men on base is tragic.
luckiest first place team in baseball, If it wasnt for the O’s we would be in trouble
Hopefully, the Yankees still have some games left against the O’s.
That fist pump was even more exuberant than Joba’s.
Didn’t the announcers just establish that Montero hated when Valverde did that? What about his own pitcher?
Valverde’s celebration is a bit different.
Valverde takes a triumphant dump on the mound after every single strike.
Valvedere does the spinning hokey pokey double clutch fist pump chicken dance. He looks like a total douche, there is none like him.
Yankees will win this game…I don’t know how, but they will…
I hope you are right!
Phrases I’m sick to death of hearing:
“Another wasted opportunity by the Yankees there”
“Looks like he just missed that one”
“Perhaps starting to turn it around”
91 mph slider??!?!?!
holy shit
arizona gruntfarts, the heat
was that really a 91mph slider? damn
Joba brought the better shit today.
Hey guys, remember that time Cervelli (our 6th hitter) bunted in the 2nd inning with Dontrelle throwing with his eyes closed? Good times.
Also: Grunt, Fart.
ZOMG!!!!!!! IT’S LAROACHE!!!!
Considering this game so far, it won’t be fitting if we don’t ground into a game ending double play with either Tex or Arod.
bet large on Tex.
Did Tex kill your family and burn down your house? You’re always hating on him.
Nope… just want him to perform to his ability. can’t understand how someone with his ability cannot adjust and go the other way, miss so many pitches, select so many non strikes.
can Jeter ground into a double play with the bases empty?
I would say Cano. Here’s how I think it would play out.
Jeter HBP
Swisher Single
Teixeira BB
A-Rod K
Cano GIDP
Leave’em loaded. Go big or go home.
That’s bold, it’s starting to pan out though.
I’m glad it didn’t.
Can’t say I can fault the move here…
mark reynolds looks like spencer pratt
Just one more slider….
damn that was sick
It’s time for a little 2009 style ninth inning rally.
Don’t you just love the Yankee fans in the background signaling the punch out?
It might be a bit premature, but… welcome back Joba!
tex message > mo
erroneous! nothing is greater than mo.
mo is the beginning, and the end
also, i know what you mean, i’m just messing around.
Look at that RAB commercial going into the 9th…that’s a big spot!
Yea, glad to see it’s been promoted already.
Heilman used to pitch for the Mets, that means he is prone to blow ups right?
I was just going to ask, can we still consider this #lolmets if he blows it?
whoa. i didnt realize you guys (RAB) got a commercial on YES. that’s awesome.
Alright, top of the order I’m sure you remember Aaron Heilman, Met reject, nothing to be scared of here.
Aaron Heilman is their closer?!?!?!?!
I would love it if Heilman became a successful closer to prove that anyone who can start can close, but it would be great if that started after tonight
dbags have the ugliest uniform in mlb
…regular game-time commercials on YES: time to take down the “donate to RAB” button?
cmon swisha, you can do it
damn, it’s 1am on the east coast. i feel for yall you have work tomorrow
it’s part of the job: yankee fan
5 hours of sleep are incoming, just hope tha Yanks don’t make me grind my teeth tonight.
man, i have to study for 3 hours after this, so i really want a yankees win
Sure about that five hours?
C’mon Swisher.
Alright Lets go.
Do NOT send Jeter.
CHANNELING THE INNER NJ!!!!!!!
Never get tired of the Mets bullpen, they can change timezones, but nobody’s fooling nobody.
I know it’s sad but I wouldn’t complain if Tex bunts here
Effectively the same thing
PR for swish? i dont think i agree…but, we’ll see.
Who is this guy, the righty Oliver Perez?
/lame’d
11 walks and only 4 runs…
Patches O’Houlihan “Like watching a bunch of retards hump a doorknob”
Ahahaha I am laughing so hard. Fucking hysterical.
lol, nobody’s said it better
Come on Tex…
SLOPPY is an understatement…
aight a-rod, let’s go!!
Lets Go A-Rod……
Arod = not fail!!
ARod… Mr. Dependable ….
damn it, i bet they walk cano
good job Alex
Tie game. If they end up losing this thing, I’m gonna flip out (zen baseball be damned). Tonight’s been a nightmare from start to finish.
On second thought, “flip out” was an overstatement. This game has sucked big time, though.
Cervelli with a bloop single to score the go ahead run…..
Good Shit A-Rod.
Time for the Cisco Kid to get it done.
Good job, Alex. Cervy, it’s up to you, ’cause they’re taking the coward’s route.
So let’s see Cervelli earn that 6th spot in the lineup.
Sooooooo… if we don’t score, who’s pitching the bot 9th?
Hope Cervelli doesn’t bunt.
C’mon Cerve!!!!
They got Mo up. Does anybody know if he sat down? Will Girardi actually bring him in for a potentially tied game on the road?
Michael Kay, can I have your job?
first HR of season
what is he arguing about? its a pretty damn good strike.
good effing god cervelli, you have to swing
What a lame AB that was. God dammit.
Mo hasn’t thrown since the weekend. I’d give him two innings tonight if necessary with the off day tomorrow.
2 strikes and he would rather bitch about a pitch that may or may not have been up…
Here is a thought, PROTECT the fucking plate. Damn it…
Cervelli batting sixth.
This.
Girardi will blame it on breaking up the lefties, of course. Even though the bullpen doesn’t have a single left-handed pitcher in it, and the D-Train blows.
3pitch K… way to put up a fight
I do have to say… Girardi Over thought this lineup a lot… yes Granderson cant hit leftys… but Willis is barley a pitcher let alone a lefty… grandy HAD to be in the 6 slot… no way can you have Frankie bat that high…
I turned on the game in the bottom of the 1st, and actually assumed Jorge got hurt catching in the top of the 1st, because there’s no way I could see Joe actually intending to bat Cervelli 6th.
Not that I’m complaining about bringing in Mo (who gives a shit about save situations), but why didn’t they just leave Joba in? He looked pretty good
Completely agree…it’s just a relief that there is no longer a possibility of this game ending with the best pitcher still in the bullpen
he pitched yesterday, and it wasn’t a quick inning (20 something pitches)
Mo makes everything better.
SHUT UP, Michael. Shut up. Isn’t tonight bad enough?
well, I have no faith in CHoP either.. he blows
Closer in a tie game on the road!!!
The Yankees have officially made history tonight. They now hold the record for most men left on base in 9 innings with 21.
That is extremely sad.
apparently the record was held by the ’56 Yankees
you pitch mo here because he’s batting 9th, if you pitch park, you either lose or have to PH for him in the 9 hole, bringing up mo in the 10th regardless of score
aight mo, make quick work of the dbacks, plz
Bringing in the closer with a tie game on the road almost makes up for Cervelli hitting 6th. Almost.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odcJ-vS22rI
94? I like this Mo
it’s like he watched joba and had to match
Shocked at the lack of video of Gonzo’s single…. wait spoke too soon perhaps…
Damnit, there it is. I was wondering how long before a 2001 reference
Kay needs to just STFU…
OMG YES stop talking about this.
Also that should’ve been called strike 3 waaah.
cmon dbacks, stop fouling off this stuff
Mo is throwing 93 and breaking bats. Your argument is invalid.
Got a tad of a heart attack…
Me too. My heart’s still going.
Sigh of relief.
8 straight perfect innings for God.
hopefully he completes the perfect game in his next inning while we celebrate a win.
man my heart stopped
wow, 3 more outs for mo for the perfect game
(sigh) Not the night for bonus cantos, already sleep deprived x2… Goodnight RABbers, hope we win, not sure how many more men we’ll have to leave on base to do it though =(
Calling it right now, we’re going to score 3 runs against this clown…
Just 2 more…
grandersmash!!!!!
GRANDERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOMETHING SORT OF GRANDISH!!!!111
Turns out, the Grandy Man can!
GRANDERSON!!!
Where them haters at?
Clearly, the Yankees made a terrible trade.
ask Jon Heyman
Grandy!!!!
I was told that Mariano Rivera Can’t pitch in tie games.
CURTIS!
Curtis Granderson does it again! What a beast. My eternal love for him cannot be adequately expressed.
You are the anti-Jethro.
GRANDERSON I LOVE YOU RIGHT NOW!!!! Yay!
GRANDERSON!
granderson HR + mo’s perfect game, a nice way to finish off the snakes
oh good point. he could finish that off, but he IS at 17 pitches or so. Also, gardy!!
hey, that guy’s good! why is he batting after Bunter McGazoo?
Hey, that’s Lord Dark Helmet to you!
Haha, he doesn’t have the Ludicrous Speed to pull off all these bunts!
The Grandy Man can, Oooh the Grandy Man Can!
/Sterling
Sterling working OT to get “grandish”, “grandy-man” and the call in on one breath…
/low-budget game experience…
Dear Joe:
Closer on the road in a tie game is a good idea. Thanks for (finally) listening!
Best,
rbizzler
heh, I wonder if this will really influence him to do it more though…was it more just a matter of circumstance/off day tomorrow/other stuff?
Probably not, but a little confirmation bias can’t hurt.
Curtis probaly has more power then any CF in the game.
GRANDY, GARDY!!!!
every time gardner gets a hit: “god damn he’s fast”
Curtis Granderson’s home run brought to you by leaving Chan Ho Park in the bullpen
Grit, etc…
Did the headfirst slide into first actually just work?????
yezzur
It did!
I hope we’re all DVR’ing this game, because that will never happen again.
If Melky was Hacky McHeadfirstslide, does that make Brett Slappy McHeadfirstslide?
Why is Logan warming? We have a lead for Mo’s sake.
if girardi takes out mariano i’ll chop cats
Boone Logan for the save would end in disaster.
Why the fuck is Boone Logan warming?
in case the yankees score 9 runs i guess
Fucking Assclown, just fucking pitch to the batter already.
Hats off to Reynolds–that was a great non-play
Look at that, he stole it anyway.
You can’t hassle the Huff.
great job huffman
bullpen implosion
Did Kay just say Upton takes a walk? That man is confused.
Apparently I’m confused.
I want a MO slam!
/Too much’d
That was a very nice AB by Huffman.
comon Captain Groundout, no DPs please.
HA! take that hummingbird!
LOL.
is no one sitting next to Mo b/c he has the perfect game going?
Comment of the night…
Not much of a deception–Mo is a better hitter than Pena
I’d rather see CC pinch hit than Pena…he looked amped in BP
One more DP for good measure rite Jeter?
Yay for GIDP…
oh captain double play
Come on, Jeter. Seriously?
well done Jete…. skip the all star break for the sake of the team and your next mega contract
unpredictable outcome there..
Get a hit! Get a hit!
Wow Jeet, that is a pretty beat line you put up today.
Let mo swing…
Cano is laughing his ass off, LOL.
Oooooooooooooooof course he did!!!!!!
Mo is batting!
a mighty cut
Nice cut.
lol, Mo looked pretty good there
damn, so close to getting that through for a hit. if only someone was on 1st base
Mo batting was totally worth staying up until 1:30.
No more perfect game
Oh dear. Come on, Mo.
Bloops in Arizona: Bad memories.
/sorry again’d
Im not worried at all…
Bet you said that nine years ago
/Carlosologist’d
I would approve of this as a five year old.
ok upton, plz dont ground to the mound
Upton. Why’s it have to be Upton?
hate those lucky ass hits
http://xkcd.com/37/
i think those radar guns are a bit hot
CRYING
only fitting that mo loses this… that will make is a perfect fucking night.
oh my god
gardner saved that run
ruh roh shaggy
same pitch 3 times in a row… a good hitter will make you pay
by same pitch I mean same spot, of course the pitch type is always the same
I don’t know–he has thrown the same pitch for 13 years now, most good hitters don’t do much with it
Focus, people. Think happy thoughts.
This sucks. Need a little luck/magic.
this looks oddly familiar…
Shh. Don’t even.
reverse jinx? simmons style?
Mo, you’re awesome, and I trust you. Please get it done.
2 innings..in Arizona, started by a bloop single….
i hope the infield in works this time… unlike back in the day
cmon GIDP!!!
This is going to turn into more justification for Girardi not bringing in Mo in a tie game on the road ever again.
1 down, 2 to go.
that actually hurts… no where to put Laroache.
Are you all serious with the 2001 references?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL3ZIc5IL2w
yankee cap in there too
2 down, 1 to go.
one… more…. out…
fingers crossed
He’s got this.
I left the room for one minute to take a schmitz and the bases are loaded wtf
He’s gna watch it go by…no spine.
This reminds me of… Mo’s final two innings in Game Six of the 2009 World Series.
FISTPUMP!!!
WOW! He never stops to amaze me
GOD I love this man!!!!!!!!
And that’s why he’s the best.
Ugliest win ever. But I’ll take it
THANKS BE TO MO.
WE LANDED ON THE MOON
Jesus Christ….There is and never will be another closer like Mo…
Un fucking real….I bow to you Mariano Rivera.
Mo is GOD.
That’s a bit redundant.
Thank god.
Still, fuck zen baseball, that was the most frustrating game in recent memory.
MO YOU’RE AMAZING!!
I feel blessed that I get to watch MARIANO RIVERA
Phewww! That was a tough 2 out of 3. But 2 out of 3 is a good start to the road trip. Thank you, Mo!
How Mo never fistpumps is beyond me.
Don’t fuck with God bitches!!!
holy shit i am so excited
i yelled and fistpumped
Same. I did multiple massive fist pumps.
agreed
Yup.
That was the messiest win ever but it was worth it for that ending. Holy fucking shit. Mariano. WORSHIP!!!!
Wow! Just wow! That took at least a day off of my life.
same here
Mo didn’t even show no reaction with the last out. Amazing.
Me and him, both.
Mo with the honesty I loved that.
When Mo passes…rather, if Mo passes on, will his body lay in state at Yankee Stadium?
Or will he just instantly assume a higher plane of being, like Obi-Wan?
that’s 2.5 games ahead of boston and tampa
Mo callin the team out!!!
that was awesome
Needed to be done. No reason for the players we have to play below their talent level and acumen.
what did he say?
“we played horrible, it is unacceptable”
A normal reliever would have cracked. Mo takes it in stride and records three straight outs without any of them leaving the infield.
Three straight outs against formidable hitters, no less, one of whom had five RBIs on the night. That really was a Houdini act. Unreal.
2.5 game lead, bitches
Plus, didn’t I said to u all, that someway, somehow, the yankees were gonna win this game….
wait. i have to pay $0.99 to vote in your stupid poll about the year the yankees LOST the world series? no thanks, YES (and KGB)
I just read the comments in this thread again. Eek. Not undeserved, but again, eek.
I did that too, eek is right.
