April 13th Yankees @ Athletics

[jacksonianmarch]

Haren just fell awkwardly on the mound and hurt himself.

 

He's stayin in. 1-0 on Jetes.

 

Somethin aint right with him.

[example1]

Jacksonian, can you explain when/why there are games when Michael Kay announces and ones where he doesn't? Whoever the primary announcer is on this game tonight I like quite a bit more. Just curious.

[yankees228]

Charles Thomas' date=' Juan Cruz, and Dan Meyer. Cruz is in ARI, Thomas was waived and nobody claimed him and Meyer has had shoulder problems and dropped off the map.[/quote']

 

Interesting, I guess the A's also lost out on a draft pick by not letting him reach free agency.

 

Oooh, this is interesting. Haren slipped a bit coming off the mound. Could be a break for the Yanks whether he stays in or doesn't.

 

EDIT: He's staying in.

An A's pitcher getting hurt? Shocking. Truly shocking!!

 

It looks like he's okay.

The guy doing PBP tonight in Kenny Singleton who usually does color for YES.

[jacksonianmarch]

That was a ball, wow.

[yankees228]

Please don't run yourself out of this inning Joe.

 

EDIT: Damn, that was close.

[yankees228]

Good eye. Have to capitalize here.

 

61 pitches already for Haren.

I'm certainly familiar with his voice and the name is clearly familiar. Why no Kay?

[jacksonianmarch]

1-0.

 

ARod was on that one.

[yankees228]

I'm certainly familiar with his voice and the name is clearly familiar. Why no Kay?

 

I'm actually not sure. It seems like YES gives him some series off during the year for whatever reason. Not sure if he is just off or if it is for a personal reason.

Kay takes certain road trips off. He never goes to KC or TB and other choice locations. Kay is a celeb after all.

 

BTW, ARod stung that ball. Kid is raking this yr.

[yankees228]

Hit it well, Swisher was well positioned. Even though they're yet to record a hit this inning it would be disapointing to only get one.

[jacksonianmarch]

they called Melky's thing a single and a 2 base error for some reason.

[ORS]

Friday is douche night in the Kay household.

[jacksonianmarch]

wait, they are douches or they douche? Or both.

[jacksonianmarch]

Hell of an AB here by the Giambino. 71 pitches in the 3rd. Nice.

[yankees228]

Yeah and they called the error on Haren. Should have been on Walker in my opinion.

He's working the count well, but he really hasn't been hitting the ball well to start the year.

[ORS]

Pitched around the trouble there. Good job by Haren.

[jacksonianmarch]

He will. Last yr was a huge anomaly for him. He always starts heinously slow.

[ORS]

wait' date=' they are douches or they douche? Or both.[/quote']

He's a whiny ****, so his pipes require cleaning.

[yankees228]

They had him on the ropes. There's a good chance he may settle down, but his PC is really high and I can't see him lasting more than five, six at the most. The A's do have three pretty solid guys out of the pen, Calero, Duchshurer, and Street, so if they have the lead when Haren comes out they're in pretty decent shape.

[yankees228]

He will. Last yr was a huge anomaly for him. He always starts heinously slow.

 

Fair enough, I really hope your right considering he is the guy protecting A-Rod.

 

EDIT: Jackson, what did the first hitter of the inning do, I missed it?

[jacksonianmarch]

I despise the guy. It is hilarious to hear him talk to former ballplayers and pretend he knows more about baseball than them. Then, inevitably, Kay jumps to a conclusion is blatantly wrong and he gets porked.

[jacksonianmarch]

lined out to Damon. BTW, Igawa misses sometimes and it is just awful. He has fantastic stuff, but his lack of command to this point will be death against the sox and jays.

 

emergency hack by Swisher. It is pretty obvious that he has good stuff. Check that pitch. 87mph fastball that swisher had no chance on, so he emergency hacks and flips a foul ball. Then he slides off his slurve and just owns him.

Thanks. At least in his first start and this one, his command has really seemed to off when he has to pitch out of the stretch.

 

Great pitch there.

[jacksonianmarch]

He might have the worst pickoff move I have ever seen from a lefty.

[jacksonianmarch]

Singleton talking about the quiet crowd. He doesnt know that in between innings they are held at gunpoint and robbed or raped. Most of em are too stunned to move.

[yankees228]

Hell of a play there by Cano. This time a blooper down the right field line doesn't kill Igawa.
