2010 All star game

[bsox0407]

Jeter was selected by the fans. Pettitte was a replacement for a player's choice' date=' and went because he was next on the player's ballot. Hughes was chosen by the players.[/quote']

 

yes. A lot of Yankee fans voted for Jeter. how many actually pick on stats rather than who the player is.

Who is talking about the fans? I responded to a post saying that Girardi selected four Yankees, which isn't the case. You mentioned the pitchers, and I responded by saying that all of those (except CC), were selected by the players. Why did you counter my points by bringing up Jeter and fans?

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Lol damn! He threw that ball wayyyy over 1st base.

[italstallianion]

AL up 1-0 in the bottom of the 5th. Longoria walk, Mauer reaching on error by Kuo (Longoria to 3rd, Mauer to 2nd), followed by a sac fly by Cano.

i wasn't saying all four were chosen by players.

 

And i was just saying Jeter doesn't deserve to be starting.

Didn't Girardi pick Arod? I could have sworn some Sox fans were pissed that he Girardi picked him instead of Youk.

I think they were pissed because Giradi picked Konerko instead of Youk.

Right, I said initially, of all the Yankees playing in the ASG, the only one he picked was A-Rod. Additionally, I completely agree, it was a poor choice, and one I only think Girardi made to help the mindset of his player heading into the second half.

Who will be the closer for the Al tonight?

[yankees228]

Who will be the closer for the Al tonight?

 

My guess would be Valverde, but Girardi wouldn't say.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Hughes

[yankees228]

Hughes

 

Haha, I don't think Hughes is going to get in the game tonight, unless we see extra innings, or if someone runs into trouble. It would be a mistake on Girardi's part if he was to pitch to the seventh (for instance).

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Big Papi in the game. Please don't get hurt.

[CoachC.]

oh noesssssss. the derby messed his swing up!!!!!1111

[yankees228]

Ugh, well there goes my prediction. Hope Hughes doesn't blow this.

haha. I was just kidding on the closing part. Figured he would get an inning tho.

[yankees228]

He always gets beat on the cutter. You would think someone would figure this out.

 

EDIT: And there it is. He shouldn't be on this team, and he certainly shouldn't be in this game. Fortunately he's out now.

[TedWilliams101]

That could break the streak...

[italstallianion]

Brian McCann just unloads on Matt Thornton to get a 3-1 NL lead.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

God damn it! Maybe that hit might break the AL streak.

[yankees228]

Joe Girardi is awful.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Damn it Hunter! We should have walked away in the inning with at least a run.

[yankees228]

Not too confident in guys like Wells and Hunter hitting Wainwright. It has nothing to do with the talent of each staff, but it speaks volumes about Joe that he had Phil Hughes pitching the 7th inning, while Charlie Manuel had Wainwright.

[yankees228]

Normally I wouldn't be bothered by the AL losing an ASG, but when it's because of people wearing the Yankees' uniform, it does.

[yankees228]

Jose Valverde has the best splitter I've ever seen.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I love how Valverde crouches after every pitch lmao!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Ortiz and Beltre up next here in the 9th. Time to show them who is the king of the AL ;D

[Palodios]

And the game is in the hands of two big Red Sox bats.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Base hit David Ortiz. That's how it's done! Now your turn Beltre.

[Palodios]

Home run derby ruins hitter's swings... my ass.
