Wang better settle down, he hasn't looked great tonight and he just got beat by a long ball. Webb has really settled in.

[jacksonianmarch]

Wang has settled down. His sinker is money.

[yankees228]

One more out. This should definitely be his last inning.

[a700hitter]

2-1 to Young. Make him get the ball up.

[jacksonianmarch]

Wang is getting the ball up. CMON CMW!!!

[a700hitter]

He hit a rope, but to Jeter.

[jacksonianmarch]

Great play by Jeter. Saves a run. Great game CMW, but you are cooked. Lets score some runs.

[yankees228]

Doesn't even smile...Wang's defense (mainly Jeter and Cairo) really helped him out tonight. Wang battled through this game even though he didn't have close to his best stuff (and was helped by the Diamondback hitters).

[jacksonianmarch]

um, Robbie, WTF are you doing?

 

4-1

[yankees228]

Great play there by Hudson.

[jacksonianmarch]

that was actually Matsui's fault. He has to go on that. We got an insurance run, but we could have had more.

[yankees228]

I think the wrong righty came out of the bullpen...

[jacksonianmarch]

I hear ya. The farns is a heart attack waiting to happen.

[jacksonianmarch]

here we go again. SHORT LEASH, SHORT LEASH!

[jacksonianmarch]

TAKE HIM OUT!!!

[jacksonianmarch]

and a seed caught by Abreu.

[a700hitter]

Jeesh, Farnworthless almost gave away the game. He left a cookie for Clark on a 2 strike pitch.

[jacksonianmarch]

For a second there, Farns looked like he was using his stuff the right way. Then he pusses out and walks a guy and leaves a cookie for Clark. Ah, the real Farns shows up.

My thoughts exactly. Why throw the slider on 3-2? You have a fastball in the high 90's tonight. Never get beat on your second best pitch.

[jacksonianmarch]

Mo is throwing smoke tonight.

[yankees228]

Mussina vs. Hernandez...0-0 after 1, both teams stranded a runner on second.

[yankees228]

Good situation hitting by the D-Backs and they lead 1-0.

 

EDIT: Good inning there. Overall Moose looks sharp tonight.

[jacksonianmarch]

That homerun by ARod was hit a TON. Off the facing of the upper deck in LF. That is tough to do.

[jacksonianmarch]

another ribbie for ARod. 4-1

[yankees228]

When he's hot, he's more than capable of carrying the entire offense.

 

EDIT: And Matsui joins the party.

[jacksonianmarch]

7-1. A bomb by Godzilla

[yankees228]

Nice outing for Moose against a weaker hitting team, but a nice outing nonetheless.

[jacksonianmarch]

Moose and Wang give 7 innings apiece and allow a total of 3ER. Not bad. Save some pen and hopefully win both.

Yeah, the way I look at it is this...you expect Moose and Clemens to give you six innings, but if they can go past that then it's really a bonus.

[jacksonianmarch]

the only worry is that Moose typically struggles in his next start after throwing more than 7 innings.
