[Optimist]

Bad luck right there...

ball hit the ump, 2 on, 0 out for the jays

Chacon works out of trouble....again.

Anybody wanting to make a video about defense might want to buy a copy of this game...

I can't watch because of the Fox blackout. So, it's good gloves huh? I was wondering how Chacon managed to allow just 3 hits on 21 balls in play, when his BABIP is .283.

Moments after I type this...Matsui makes a gold glove catch in the outfield.

Absolutely. Probably some of the best defense this team has exhibited this season. Great to see.

[Optimist]

The Yankees win! Thaaaaa Yankees win!

 

How appropriate that this game ends with a web gem DP...

Exactly, this is the best Defensive Yankees game, I've seen all year, maybe even in the past 2 years, ESPNS Top 10 could all be just from this game(for both teams), and still leave some great plays out, Now the Yankees have won 6 in a row, 10 of the last 13, 20 of their last 28, and are 39-22 since Jusly 14th

N.I.C.E.

 

Way to go Chacon. Once again showing that you can't f*** with the Yankees, we're simply going to win, and that's it.

 

Go New York, Go New York, Go.

Kinda ironic coming from the hyperbole monitor.

[26 to 6]

Doesn't matter what Chacon does today. The Yankees offense is going to literally rape Chacin out on that mound today.

 

Prediction: 9-5 Yankees.

well your prediction was a little off. Before the game I would have agreed with the Yanks putting up the big runs, but not with the Jays putting up 5. Theyre not that good an offensive club and I would have expected Chacon to be at his best. But regardless neither happened.

 

Ecstatic with the pitching. Thrilled with the defense. I was a little nervous when Flash came out. He hasnt been that great lately, been a little up and down. I would have preferred to leave Chacon out there. But I cant blame Torre. He was caught between a rock and a hard place. Had he left Chacon out there and he blew it everyone would be asking why there was no relief in the ninth. But had Gordon blown it everybody would be asking why Chacon didnt pitch the 9th after looking superb through 8.

 

Anyways, good win.

 

Now I just have to hope for an Oakland comeback (no point in pulling for the Royals, no way they're overcoming the deficit Cleveland has on them at this point).

haha, I like irony.

 

Out of all our wins, I pick this one as really big. It won't be remembered much, but I think this is a big win.

yea man, i was locked in watching the 9th inning of the Cleveland game. But I let myself down after I got my hopes up. Wickman has been too good this year to blow that game.
