Cody Ransom is terrible…why is he on the team???
Pettitte gets out of trouble…0-0 so far!
Jesus Christ…1st and 2nd with 1 out the first two innings, hit into DP’s…no outs. COME ON!!!
no runs I mean…garbage.
1-2-3 inning for Pettitte…nice. Bats??? Hello??? McFly???
HR FOR JOHNNY!!!! 1-0!!!!
1-1…Pettitte gives it right back. Great job, not.
Picks off the runner at 1st to end the inning…too bad he hung a pitch that led to a leadoff double that led to the tying run. Ass.
One pitch, one out for ARod…weak.
Insanely easy 5 pitch 1-2-3 inning for the yankees…COME ON!!! THIS GAME IS F-CKING BORING!!!
No runs that inning for them…SCORE SOME RUNS!!!! I’M FALLING ASLEEP OVER HERE!!!!
A BLAST BY MELKY DOWN THE 3RD BASE LINE!!!! Might be reviewed…
LOOKS FAIR TO ME!!!! 2-1!!!! Going to the booth…
HR. Very fast review…the NFL should take notes…
Cody Ransom is worthless. Why not play Hinskie at 3rd???
Nailed Jeter on the back foot!!!! BLAST ICHIRO IN THE BALLS!!!! Dick…
…and Pettitte gives it right back, big surprise. F-CK!
AN ABOMB!!!!! FROM AROD!!!!! 4-2!!!! HE IS ON FIRE!!!!
Let’s see is Andy can actually hold the lead this time…
1-2-3 7th for Pettitte…nice job. Looks like Hughes might be pitching the 8th???
Looks like Ace now…he is a beast.
I guess Ace was just in to get the righty, got him. Coke now???
Yep…Coke in to face Ichiro and Branyan I guess…
Ichiro grounds back to Phil, 2 outs…
K!!!! Great job Coke!!!!
Mo time…
ENTER SANDMAN!!!!
1 out.
2 outs.
YANKEES WIN..THEEEEEEE YANKEES WIN!!!!
7 in a row!!!!
7 at one blow!
Makes me think of the fairy tale about the”gallant tailor” who once swatted 7 flies at once, and had “Seven at one blow!” engraved on his belt.
He went out and conquered the world with confidence………..
Doesn’t really fit the NYY situation, but it came to me as a random thought.
I guess I was thinking of NL teams (plus the Ms) as flies……
That works.
Hope the Ms are still swattable when they get to Fenway…….we get King Felix this time.
On a ‘Minor’ note, Jesus Montero is now batting .319/.395/.542 in AA, with 4 HR, and a 9/6 BB/K ratio.
Now, consider that Trenton is an extreme pitcher’s park (as well as the Eastern League being an extreme pitcher’s league), and also that he’s a catcher (yes, he is actually a catcher), and furthermore, he doesn’t turn 20 until LATE NOVEMBER, well. These are Justin Upton numbers, folks, at a much more valuable position.
And who says the Yankees only develop pitching prospects?
Ya, and if he doesn’t turn out, any chance of signing Mauer? I’m fuzzy on the contract years (of Posada and Mauer..)
I can’t imagine the Twinkies will let Mauer go.
Montero’s bat is absolutely awesome. He needs time to work on his D. Full year at AA, hopefully followed by a full year at AAA next season, hopefully followed by replacing Posada in 2012.
