  1. I've always thought of Cash as sort of a poor man's ARod.
  2. Hey, he's doing some strategic padding of a shaky lead! Providing an insurance run in a crucial game! Or something... And Moss triples. Safe to say that the offense is currently firing on all cylinders. Or that Bass sucks. Maybe both.
  3. Kevin Cash hits a pinch-hit HR. The apocalypse will begin in 5... 4... 3...
  4. Dear MDC, Great job inducing the DP! Now don't walk the next guy. --Beaneater
  5. Yanks win in bottom of 10th; Sox move within two, assuming our bullpen can hold on to a nine-run lead. Speaking of the bullpen... Dear Craig, You have a nine-run lead. Do not walk the leadoff batter. Sincerely, Beaneater
  6. First pitch meatball to Duddy/Dutty may have been a mistake in retrospect...
  7. 1.2 scoreless from Timlin, including working out of two messes not entirely of his own making. He's really been pretty decent recently.
  8. Are Brandon Moss's guts back in order?
  9. OK, next question from someone who isn't watching the game. So there's a brawl early in the game, punches are thrown, etc., etc. Later Lester hits both Crawford and Iwamura but doesn't get the heave-ho. Was there no warning from the umps after the brawl? Did Lester have a couple "get out of ejection free" cards?
  10. And this is probably not the kind of game where we want a pitcher ending up in the batter's box... well, I guess if it's Timlin it's OK
  11. Any reason they didn't switch Carter to DH and Manny to LF? Surely Manny is a better LFer than Carter...?
  12. Didn't know who was hurt or how bad. EDIT: Or indeed what was going on at all.
  13. Classic Youk AB. "I will now get a base hit off your 8th pitch." Argh -- not so classic Manny AB...
  14. Even the guy on first base is in scoring position when legendary masher Kevin Cash is up! Seriously, though, is this guy exceeding expectations or is he exceeding expectations?
  15. I wish he had. Part of me still hates Pedro a little for not doing that, but as someone else said, ultimately it's Grady's call. I think Timlin had given up one single in the postseason to that point. And not in 0.2 IP either -- he was so lights out at that point that they should have called him The Generator. As in, "When they break out The Generator, you know the lights must be out." Or perhaps an even cooler nickname could be found. Williamson was doing pretty well himself. Timlin + Williamson + 3 run lead = as close to a sure thing as exists in baseball. Just for the record, count me as another person who distinctly remembers nearly having an excretory anomaly when Pedro came out for the 8th.
  16. Lugo draws another walk. Again, why wouldn't you just throw Lugo fastballs down the gut? The worst that could happen is that he could beat out a chopper to SS. That's the absolute most that Lugo is going to do with a ball this year. EDIT: Badly phrased. I don't mean that Lugo will not hit the ball out of the infield ever again this year. I mean that this year's Lugo is unlikely to do much more with the bell.
