4/7 vs Yankees - John Lackey's debut

[WhiskeyBreath]

haha indeed.

[WhiskeyBreath]

That's 81 pitches for Lackey. Looking good.

[rhet]

Nomar would have made it.

[ORS]

Not that I care, but Pettitte seems to be getting squeezed a bit this inning.

[bsox0407]

Vmart is hitting well so far this year.

[bsox0407]

Lot of HBP this series.

[ORS]

Papi will bring the pain here.

[Spudboy]

Papi will bring the pain here.

 

Ye of little faith!

[WhiskeyBreath]

Go the other way Ortiz.

[ORS]

Told you, that was painful to watch.

[Spudboy]

Oh well.

 

Is this a pitchers duel?

[rhet]

That was a bail and reach.

[bsox0407]

That is the 12th time that Youk has been hit by a Yankee Pitcher.

[rhet]

Oh well.

 

Is this a pitchers duel?

 

Run prevention, it's the name of the game.

[Dojji]

Loving me some John Lackey.

[msubulldogs21]

Really Schrieber? A warning for that? Awful.

[Dojji]

Really Schrieber? A warning for that? Awful.

 

Think he's just trying to nip it in the bud.

[msubulldogs21]

Think he's just trying to nip it in the bud.

 

Pettitte definitely wasn't throwing at Youkilis, and Lackey isn't going to drill Jeter intentionally in a 1 run game.

[msubulldogs21]

Nice defense by Drew.

[Spudboy]

Johnson is slumping. Maybe he is done too.

[rhet]

Pretty routine.

[Dojji]

Lackey hit their leadoff guy the inning after our guy got hit. Even if the intention wasn't there, I can see a warning, if only to keep things from going any further.

[Spudboy]

Pettitte definitely wasn't throwing at Youkilis' date=' and Lackey isn't going to drill Jeter intentionally in a 1 run game.[/quote']

 

True, but the Ump has to at least appear to maintain control. Hence, the warning.

[msubulldogs21]

Pretty routine.

 

That ball knuckled a little bit. It was a tougher play than it looked.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Big time double play!

[msubulldogs21]

LACKEY

 

Hit the showers brotha. What a night.

[rhet]

Yep, that would have been through last year.

[Jasonbay44]

Big double play

[yankees228]

Lackey really seemed to tire that inning, but he got away with his mistakes. I'm guessing that's it for him.

[bsox0407]

We need to get a run or two for the bullpen.
