Just saw it for the first time--holy s***. Inexplicable.

[Gom]

Props to Tex for running hard all the way.

[High Mileage]

God I hate the f--king Yankees...

[Jasonbay44]

I just saw it as well.. Holy s***, what a terrible play...

[ORS]

Power, Pride, Please drop the ball!

I'll take it. So would you.

He always does. The guy hustles 100% of the time. Unreal how he went from being a luxury to being the center of our offense and an example for others to follow in 2 months.

[redsoxrules]

what a way for K-rod to have his first blown save

[jacksonianmarch]

we needed luck to be on our side after this past series with Boston.

I agree. Youkilis likely scores on that ball too, but Manny or Ortiz are standing at 3rd.

 

That said, a pathetic, a FREAKING pathetic way to lose a game for the Mets. Weak. Should be a 3 game lead for the Sox.

 

Someone should see if Castillo had a bet on the Yankees winning the game or something. MLB 2Bs just don't make that error, and certainly not in that situation. In reality it is a tough play (a MLB pop-up, and A-Rod really popped it up) but that's an excuse (on a very limited basis) for a GCL player, not an MLB regular.

[Cocos Disciples]

Aceves started to warm in the 3rd, but it looks like Pettitte changed his mind...we'll have to watch him closely in the 4th.

It was definitely a terrible play by Castillo, but one thing that gets lost in all of this was where the hell was Ryan Church? He could've easily come in and called him off. He's gotten off the hook when instead of coming in, he was jogging toward Beltran to get ready to give him a high five.

[Cocos Disciples]

Wait...are they serious with the Tim McC album? They can't be.

[msubulldogs21]

Sure it was, but it was up in the air for a LONG time and if Church is coming in, it would be an easier play for him to get it.

[Cocos Disciples]

Nieve is absolutely shutting the Yanks down. 5 innings, 2 hits, 1 run. Dominant. Just dominant.

[Gom]

This Yankee team sucks.

[Cocos Disciples]

Your offense should be able to carry you guys for a while. I still expect a playoff berth.

MLB 2B should make that play 100 out of 100 times, whether the RF takes it or not. If he is making the play, it is 100% catchable.

[TheKilo]

Late to the party but are you f***ing kidding me Luis Castillo?

[a700hitter]

The Mets rebounded from the error with a 17 hit spanking of the Yankees. The Yankees looked like crap today. They dropped 3 in a row to the Sox, got extremely lucky yesterday and took a beating today. It's not a good sign for them that their pitching has gotten beaten up for two games in a row by a Met offense that doesn't have a lot of punch without Delgado and Reyes.

[redsoxrules]

If castillo didn't f*** up we'd have a 4 game lead

[VA Sox Fan]

Johan is stinking for the Mets so far. 4-0 Yanks, top 3rd.

[a700hitter]

Burnett has temporarily lost command and loaded the bases with no outs on 2 walks and a hit.

[Teddyballgame10]

He is pitching well. Cervelli or w.e. his name is fought of a good pitch and had a weak hit with 2 outs to extend the inning.

[Teddyballgame10]

OK now hes pitching bad. Matsui homer.

[VA Sox Fan]

Unreal. Only 2 HR's for the Yanks at "THE Stadium"......

[diony]

18Ks in 12 IPs for Robertson.

[jacksonianmarch]

Robertson is earning some stripes in NY. I'd bring up Melancon, get rid of Veras and start working these kids in.

[Gom]

What a day to see at the Stadium. I have to admit, it was such a gorgeous day, I left in the 6th inning.

 

It was 13-0 at that point anyways.
