With Redding pitching, if we don't win this one, the warning flags have to be raised.

This should be an interesting game, although I am not too confident for obvious reasons. I will not post during the game because I know you guys don't like that. Good luck to everyone.

[ARod2212]

This is the game without pressure on the Yankees to win. Hopefully that will pay off. Does anyone know what kind of stuff Redding has? What does his fastball reach?

[riverside sluggers]

obviously his fastball has been reaching jackshit, this season an 0-5 record ERA over 9

[JeterWifey213]

Not too much confidence, unless the offense beats the hell out of Wells ( which is doubtful, but may happen). The guys have make Wells work get his pitch count up, get into the Red Sox bull pen. I just hope Redding can give us at least 6, even that I think is too much.

We have a way of making All Stars out of bad pitchers.

 

I hope this isn't the case tonight.

[yankees228]

Lets just hope Sturtze is ready to go 3 innings tonight and 3 innings on Sunday.

[JeterWifey213]

^^^ Yup, cause we need him.

[Soxfan1]

NY fans have taken over this game thread.

[yankees228]

lol, don't worry, you guys got mad at us for posting on it last night so once the game starts I won't post on it.

[YanksHater213]

Haha, Reddings beard is hilarious.

[ARod2212]

3 hours before game time, I'm sure you'll get a few more Sox folks in here by first pitch.

[JeterWifey213]

Haha, Reddings beard is hilarious.

Yes it is, but I doubt he still has it. You know the Yankee rule.

[yankees228]

Oh boy JeterWifey, I think a lot of bashing will probably follow that statement.

[JeterWifey213]

Probably, but hey I am use to it by now lol.

[stocker323]

Just win.

[YanksHater213]

Duh... if we dont take this one I am expecting the worst - a sweep.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Just win.

 

 

Simple. Eloquent. Correct.

BOO! Put Cora at second!

[element1151]

Cora over Bellhorn? I think Cora is done. Bellhorn is better.

[yeszir]

Put Wally at second instead!

[yankees228]

I heard that Ruben Sierra has tremendous numbers against Wells. Maybe that is someone to watch out for. I think it is nuts that Torre does not field his best lineup against the Red Sox (put Bernie in center instead of Cabrera) because they need to score as many runs as they can especcially with Redding on the mound. Other than that I like the Yankee lineup. Both lineups are pretty similar from last night. I think the majority of the pressure is on the Sox because of the pitching matchup and the fact that if they lose they are down 2-0 in the series with RJ looming on Saturday (not the old dominant RJ but still effective. I really hope this is a quick pitchers duel because I have to wake up early to drive up to Boston for tomorrows game lol.

[Youk Of The Nation]

And Wells strikes out the first batter of the night on four pitches, all strikes.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Second batter goes down swinging!

[Youk Of The Nation]

Sheffoid flies out, an eleven pitch inning for Wells. Nice start.

[yeszir]

Wells is our new ace apparently.

[Youk Of The Nation]

27 GAMES for Johnny, on the FIRST pitch. Four pitch walk for Renteria.

[JeterWifey213]

I smell sock runs, Ortiz struck out.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Ouch. Papi goes down swinging.
