Fans of WBGO have known Felix Hernandez as a solid sender for a long time, but this guy can really bring it. Yeah, we’ve been looking forward to tonight’s game for a while. The Unit and The King. A good, old-fashioned pitchers duel, but with subtext up the wazoo. Bring it on.
Consider this an open thread for the action….
But it’s the Yankee rook that strikes first! 1-0.
A-Rod! Web Gem.
This we know: there is no fastball too fast for Sheff. Especially after a day off. 2-0.
Um, through five. And you know what we’re talkin’ about.
So much for that. And to a guy named Yunieski. Who’s hitting–what?–.230?
Bravo. A magnificent night of baseball on a very un-magnificent day.
