[jacksonianmarch]

leadoff walk and Minky makes an error. WTF.

[jacksonianmarch]

Mo splinters Ichiro's bat and then gets a DP. Game over YANKEES WIN 7-2.

[a700hitter]

Tomorrow --Pettitte vs. Ramirez? Holy gift-wrapped win batman.

[Gom]

You best catch up on Lost. 2 more episodes.

 

I know. I just watched Brig, episode 19. You know, Tivo has to be the single greatest invention in TV since they switched over to color.

Absolutely. The Brig was good but the one after was better IMO.

[Gom]

Cool...I'm gonna watch it today.

 

Tomorrow --Pettitte vs. Ramirez? Holy gift-wrapped win batman.

 

Like Beckett versus Guthrie isn't?

 

Although we should both win, my guess is that one of us will lose. Baseball is a funny game.

[a700hitter]

Giambi is upset they he did not have enough time to doctor the pink bat today.

[yankees228]

Horacio's looking pretty good so far, and now the M's are starting to tee off on Pettitte. First and second, no one out.

 

EDIT: The righties are really hitting the down and in slider.

[yankees228]

Nice. Andy was working from behind the whole inning but he managed to get out of it.

The Yankees faced Haracio last season and he gave them trouble pitching 7 innings and giving up an unearned run.

[yankees228]

If Giambi is not hitting the ball with power, he is really useless because he refuses/can't hit the ball to the opposite field.

I think I remember that, middle game against the Braves, right?

[yankees228]

Damn, A-Rod didn't even seem to hit that ball too hard and it still took Ichiro to the wall. He's just missed two HR's in as many nights. Hopefully that means he's going to start to hit them again because no one else is.

[MANNYHOF24]

Score?

[yankees228]

Score?

 

2-1 end of six. And Andy gets his first pick off this year.

 

EDIT: M's on top.

[example1]

So, just in case anyone missed it, in case you're not score board watching:

 

Sox score 6 in the 9th to win 6-5.

 

I figured you should have to know that, you know, since this is talksox and all.

I was watching on MLB.tv. Pretty remarkable stuff.

 

Ok Yanks have a base runner. One out in the 7th and here comes Posada.

 

EDIT: Back to back singles. Very quick hook, Ramirez out after only 82 pitches. Phelps is due up next. They didn't say who was coming in, Sherrill (lefty) or Reitsma (righty), but if it's Sherrill I would pinch hit Minky. He's been swinging the bat well lately, but if it's Sherrill I'd obviously stick with Phelps.

 

EDIT: It's Reitsma and it's Minky.

DP. Ouch.

[yankees228]

DP. Ouch.

 

Guess I was wrong about Minky. The M's have a good bullpen and if the Yankees want to have a chance here they have to keep the M's off the board. Not sure if it's still going to be Pettitte. 8-9-1 coming up for the M's.

 

EDIT: It's still Pettitte.

I wouldnt be suprised if I were you guys. The O's taking a series from you is just as likely as hell freezing over.

[yankees228]

For those of you not watching the game, the Yankees just announced that if his bullpen goes well Clemens will pitch friday for the Tampa Yankees against Fort Myers. I think I remember ESPN picking up his minor league starts last year, we'll see if the same goes for this year.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Nice A-Rod, nice.

[TheKilo]

Morrow just blew it by ARod, although I do think he swung at ball 4.

[riverside sluggers]

Pettitte is this team's ace, no doubt about it

[RedSoxRooter]

Yanks 9th: Giamroid K'd. Sushi doubled. Pussada K'd. Menky K'd. Eat it. 8

[a700hitter]

Putz just blew away those guys in the 9th.

[TheKilo]

Putz is straight filthy.

[a700hitter]

Thuuuuh Yankees Loooose!!!

Thuuuuh Yankees Loooose!!!

 

Edit: 8 games ahead. Let's keep adding to the lead!

[Mr Crunchy]

arod has come back to earth

hes no longer on pace for 85 hrs and 275rbi

the rest of the team is slumping but their pitching has come around a bit

8 games in may is nothing but with our pitching being what it is i think the yanks will have trouble making up all this ground as i dont see any big losing streaks on the horizon

 

of course injuries could change all this but so far so good

 

question

you have a 225M payroll and doug meintxxx is the best option for pinch hitting late in the game??

WHY??

[schillingouttheks]

He gone.

 

Danks strikes out Abreu, stranding Posada on 3rd. To the bottom of the second we go.
